To move up?

Post by mrsrandolph » Tue May 09, 2017 11:50 am

My 11 year old daughter (12 in late August) is on week 15 of CTC. We school year round. I have her going into 6th in the fall. I like to do Res2Ref for 6th, because it keeps them on Target with the high School guides. My question is whether we should stop CTC early and start Resurrection to Reformation when school starts in the fall. I have used all the guides through WG. (currently using WG).
I moved her into CTC because I needed to separate her from her younger brother. She was finding the guide too "young". Especially with younger brother.

I would assess at the end of July or beginning of August and see what week she is on and how well she is doing with the guide. If she is doing everything as written in the guide in a timely manner, and doing it easily then you could consider moving her up. If she is struggling at all with anything then I would finish out CTC and then start RTR when you are done. With schooling year round you should be able to catch up and still have her doing WG for 9th grade. Since you have one in WG you know it is a very challenging and full guide so you just don't want to rush her through and have her not prepared by the time she gets to that guide.
