Here at G3, we get a lot of questions about scheduling and time management while online homeschooling. It makes sense! Many families who come to us are homeschooling for the first time. Others are venturing into the world of online learning for the first time. Most families are trying to help their gifted kids gain…
by Sarah Butler It was easier when we were young. When the news came to the door each morning and was on three or four channels on our TVs a few times a day. When we went to the library to look for a book or journal article, perhaps combing the card catalog, then searching…
