short term homeschooling

I'm writing an article about short-term homechooling for a parenting magazine. I have a lot of anecdotal evidence from parents in Virginia, but I'm wondering about families in other parts of the country who have embarked on homeschooling as a one or two year endeavor. (Or even one semester.) For those who've tried it: Why do it for the short term, what was your experience like, how does the short-term mode differ from traditional homeschooling? And for the full-time homeschoolers out there, do you think that homeschooling for a year, to supplement the public schools, or just give a child a break, works well?
