I was wondering if anyone has used "Early American and World History" by Rea Berg in high school? If so, what is the "spine" history book that is used along with this literature approach? Thank you, Denny

Can you tell me why you dismissed "A Noble Experiment"? I was considering this as one of our options and I would appreciate your thoughts. Thanks. -

We've decided to use Economics in One Lesson, Whatever Happened to Penny Candy, and The Complete Guide to Personal Finance for Teenagers and College Students as part of our economics course for our 11th grade son. Do you have any suggestions for testing? I'm trying to come up with a way to evaluate him for a course grade....any suggestions?

Best Latin program for high school?
theflyingbunny replied to theflyingbunny's topic in High School and Self-Education Board
Uggghhh. I am still so nervous about choosing a Latin program for my 10th grader. I feel like whatever we choose we have to stick with because he needs at least the 2 years of Latin and I don't want to jump around from program to program. Anymore thoughts....suggestions for me. As you can see I have decision paralysis :) Thanks, Denny -
Best Latin program for high school?

Has anyone used the Keystone school online Latin course? -
What do you recommend for Latin in high school? My 9th grader has never taken Latin before. He would like to take at least two years of Latin to satisfy his foreign language requirments. (He took many years of Spanish and is tired of it). He is a sharp student so I know he could handle Latin, but I don't know which program would be the best. I've heard of so many different options and I am getting overwhelmed and now I have decision paralysis. Here are a few I have heard of: Wheelock's Henle Lone Pine Classical School Lukeion The Keystone school Artes Latinae Powerspeak 12 Memoria Press Scholars online Veritas Latin Trivium Carmenta Online Latin School I am open to your advice and suggestions. Thanks!

Hello all: I would appreciate your input on this dilemma. I am home schooling my high school son. He is currently in 9th grade. He would like to attend Arizona State University (ASU). When I reviewed their admission requirements it says that any science lab courses completed in high school must be "live labs". No virtual labs on computer are accepted. ASU is not clear about accepting science labs done in the home environment. The labs we do are "live", meaning we use real equipment (i.e. microscope, slides, dissection equipment, etc.) in our home school science courses. My concern is that they will not accept these labs. I have talked with different advisors at ASU and received different answers. And there will be no guarantee that what they tell us today will be what they judge his transcript by in 3 years when he applies to college. This has been my plan. What do you all suggest? 9th grade: His first semester of Biology was completed at a local public high school. The second semester we decided to home school him. We continued with Biology by completing Apologia Biology. 10th grade: We plan on doing Apologia Chemistry 12th grade: We plan on having him take Physics at a local community college for dual credit for the 1st semester. The second semester we plan on having him take Anatomy and Physiology at the local community college for dual credit. Have any of you encountered difficulty getting a college to accept home school high school labs? What did you do? All your advice and suggestions are greatly appreciated. Thanks, Denny

Hello: I have heard that Times Tables is a great way to learn the multiplication math facts. I have not used it personally, but I've thought that it would be a good product. However, I am not quite there yet with my first grader. She is struggling with her addition math facts. I was wondering if anyone could suggest a program like "Times Tables" that helps solidify addition math facts. Thanks, Denny

I had heard that the original versions were more Christian based, then they removed this in the later revision. Is this true? And if so, which books would I purchase to have the Christian stories in it? Thanks, Denny

I have read the Well Trained Mind, and in it the author recommends the John Wiley version of the Mcguffey readers. Does anyone know why she recommends this version specifically as opposed to the others? Thanks, Denny

Hello All: My daughter used Math in Focus 1st and 2nd grade at a private school. I homeschooled her last year using Math in Focus for 3rd grade. Math in Focus is way to expensive for us, so I switched to Singapore Primary Mathematics St. Ed. for 3B (last part of 3rd grade). Now she is in 4th grade (still homeschooling) but I am uncertain as to which curriculum for math I should use with her. Should I switch to Math U See? Switch to Math Mammoth? Stay with Singapore Primary Mathematics Standard Ed.? Do any of you have any thoughts on this? Thanks, Denny
