school has started

The student I home school is back in school.  This year should be a successful year.  His challenges have been worked on and hopefully overcome.  Now we will work on filling in the holes in his learning.
We have had two successful days.  When he wants to slid back into compensation mode, I remind him that he is in middle school and we have corrected the learning challenge.  We are doing the balance board daily also.  Last year, it was a challenge to get math and English done on a daily basis.
This year, we are doing history, math, English, Science, Bible and Khan Academy.  Today, he wanted me to grade his work. He needs to learn to wait for his grade, so he will get it on Monday. Khan Academy is fun because I sit by him and help him figure out the problem and then he gets instant feedback on his answer.  It is a fun way to practice without me pushing him.
