Math- AoPS Algebra 3 & Precalculus Science- Spectrum Chemistry History- ToG Ancients Literature- ToG Ancients Health (1/2 credit)- ?

Possibly another elective. Either Equine Science, a Computer Programming class, or AoPS Intro to Counting and Probability.

I'd only worry about it IF I'd covered that info. Not everyone knows the highest mountain in the US. And not everyone covers geography early. By high school years I'd expect knowledge of Everest and the Amazon and other major features of the planet. :iagree:

AoPS Algebra 3 class starts in June and ends in November and then we'll start Precalc finishing over the summer if need be.:001_smile: Ok, I will. Thank you.

The K-8 and Logic Boards have had a bunch of these, but I haven't seen any over here. Post your plans for high school next year, whatever grade.:001_smile: Here's my (tentative) plan for 9th Math- AoPS Algebra 3 & Precalculus Science- Spectrum Chemistry, maybe some PH after Eight's thoughts on the other thread History- ToG Ancients Literature- ToG Ancients Health (1/2 credit)- ? Cryptology- AoPS Number Theory, Elementary Cryptanalysis, and Mathematical Chiphers, plus MEP's code units. Also, a history of cryptography and espionage using The Code Book as a spine. German- ?

Me too!

I would agree that it seems off. First, that the instructor did not check. This is odd because the student is new, has not tacked up independently much, AND there is a show the next day. Did she atleast check girth tightness? That is a safety hazard, if not. The not checking would make me very wary. It is very easy to make a small mistake tacking up. Second, that a little bit of dirt would cause a sore so bad that after 30 minutes of riding the horse would be unable to be shown. And why bleeding in particular? If pain is the issue, a sore can be very painful with no bleeding...

Art of Problem Solving http://www.artofproblemsolving.com/School/classlist.php They do a fabulous job of teaching the whys as well as the hows. Feedback on problems sets is very nicely done. The atmosphere is one of a love of learning and math. The pace is fast and rather challenging, however.

I use various apps: Elements, Notes, Evernote (for reading PDF's), Kindle (I don't like iBook's graphics), Calendar, Stack the States and Stack the Countries, Adobe Ideas is great as a whiteboard, Audiobooks is a nice free app though I haven't used it much, and of course Safari. Oh and it is great for YouTube...really nice graphics. I don't have 3G, but I still love the portability of it. I can read books, take notes, read PDF's, etc.

:lol: I :001_wub: my iPad. If you have any questions about them feel free to ask.

For what device? As long as you have Internet, you can browse WTM forums on anything. I'm browsing from my iPad right now...

Seventeen Moments of Spring?

Glad to help. I've been a lurker for a while, but I couldn't resist when I saw a topic about iPads as ereaders. I :001_wub: my iPad as an e-reader.

You can download a free kindle or nook app so long as your computer has fairly new software (Windows Vista or 7 or Mac OS X 10.5 or 10.6, I believe). Here is the link to the free Kindle apps: http://www.amazon.com/gp/feature.html/ref=kcp_ipad_mkt_lnd?docId=1000493771 The Nook app should come up if you search for 'free Nook apps'.

Yep.:thumbup: The highlighting and typing is done within the e-reader app and doesn't seem to affect the running speed.

Audiobooks is a free app with lots of free audio books. I'm fairly certain there are other audio book apps, but that's the one I have. You can run an audio file on the Audiobook app or on iTunes and read a book on an e-reader app (I use the Kindle app) at the same time. There is almost no noticeable slow down. I think two apps at a time is all the iPad will run, though you can have up to four different web pages open while running an audiobook. Hope that helps.:001_smile:
