My daughter did Apologia all the way through -Gen. Sci., Phy. Sci, Bio, Chem., Physics, Chem. 2. She said that she was well prepared for college with college classes in Bio, Chem 1 and 2 Organic Chem 1 and 2, Microbiology, Biochemistry 1 and 2.
What computer skills are needed for High School/College? PowerPoint, Excel, Word ...?
I need tutorials with assignments. Does anyone have any idea where I could look for a course or curriculum?
Has anyone used Apologia Physics before Chemistry.
Apologia recommends Chemistry before Physics.
I would like to use Physics first as it is a requirement in our state (Chemistry is not).
We've completed both Algebra 1 and 2 and will be doing Geometry this year.
We used the BJU (DVD's) Spanish 1 & 2 -- five years ago.
This year we used the BJU Spanish 1 online course.
We prefer the DVD's -using paper and pencil.
There are several grading mistakes on the online quizzes and tests that need to be corrected by BJU.
Would Mystery of History 3 (used in 1 semester) be a strong enough program for high school?
We have been using another High School World History program this semester...not loving it.
We would pick up Mystery of History Vol. 3 (where we leave off the other program) and use it for the remainder of the year.
We completed the MOH vol. 1 and 2 in middle school.
MOH seems to "stick"(history remembered rather than soon forgotten).
I read these comments off of Cathy Duffy's website regarding MOH vol. 3:
Volume III stretches into high school level.
Volume III seems to me best for junior high and high school level simply because of the breadth and depth of information covered.
I called Bob Jones this morning. They said that the new version (no interruptions) of Spanish 1 was completed Feb. 1, 2013. It will be nice to have a 30 minute lesson.
Thank you for all of your helpful comments!
I called Bob Jones. They said that Spanish 1 was now without the interruption of the other students. I'll call again tomorrow to see if I was told correctly. My daughter took both BJU Spanish 1 and 2 - 5 yrs. ago. She just forwarded through the interruptions. I asked BJU when Spanish 2 would be redone. They don't know. It was a very good program. I just don't know whether to buy the program with the DVD's or use the online program.
Which of these two options might be the best for a 9th grade English credit?
