last year my daughter asked if we could homeschool again for 7th grade.  She had been homeschooled for k-3rd grade, then was at a private school, but when we moved to GA she was in public school.  After 2 years in public school she wanted to study at home again.

I have enjoyed this time so much.  She is strong willed and stubborn, but our time of studying has been so good (I say "our" time of studying, bc I have to relearn a lot of the material). She likes being able to study at her own pace and has been reading a tremendous amount. 

We are deciding if she should go back to public/government school for 8th grade or stay home one more year.  Even with our personality clashes, I am cherishing this year of home study.

I don't know what type of cirriculum you use, but Bob Jones University Press has dvd classes available.  i think I might switch over to that type of thing next year.  Maybe the teacher on the dvd's can explain things better than me.  It is kind of expensive $999 I think... But it also includes all the text book and teaching supplies.  You rent the dvd's for 13 months and then return them when you are done.
