It’s August 6, and Gertrude Ederle became the first woman to swim the English Channel on this day in 1926. Back when we were first creating what would become our Writing 1 course we included a story about this very event, so whenever we think of Gertrude Ederle, we always think of Build Your Writing Skills which over time morphed into Writing 1. This is a good example of how our paper-based middle school courses and paper-based high school courses evolve over time. We are always working to give our homeschool students the most recent versions of courses as they work toward earning our accredited high school diploma. Doing so gives them the best education possible. Experience this for yourself by enrolling today. We look forward to helping you channel your energy properly so that you can do your best as our student!
