The title should say "Curriculum -or lack thereof - update". While Marco is still using a curriculum, and this year we have settled on virtualhighschool.com, for tenth grade, Madison has been unschooling for the last year. Which means interest-led learning, no curriculum, no requirements. What it does not mean is no learning. Madison is learning so much it is difficult to record it all. We are loving unschooling and the joy it lends to learning about everything. So, that being said, here is in updated version of what we are doing:
