angela in ohio Posted March 6, 2010 Share Posted March 6, 2010 Here's ours. Keep in mind that it is all theory at this point :D: 9th: Algebra II Biology Latin I Computer Applications TOG Yr 1/Omnibus (History, English, maybe Religion) Logic II 10th: Geometry Chemistry Latin II TOG Yr 2/Omnibus Logic III or Apologetics 11th: Trig/Pre-Calc Anatomy & Physiology Latin III TOG Yr 3/Omnibus Rhetoric 12th: Calculus Physics Greek TOG Yr 4/ Omnibus Govt & Econ There will also be flute/ music theory, art/ art history, home econ, and phys ed each year, and we will decide how to work those credits out later. Dds also have a work/volunteer experience each year in one of dh's programs, but I think those will stay extracurricular except for maybe an 'internship' for credit their senior year, with added academic work (research/ writing.) I'm always open to suggestions or constructive criticism, too, from those who have BTDT. :001_smile: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lovemykids Posted March 6, 2010 Share Posted March 6, 2010 Not a master plan, but here is ninth grade: English Biology (DIVE or OM) History Spanish Algebra 1 or 2 Art Plus, Health and PE, Computer Tech, Career Education, Speech, and electives/ volunteering etc., somewhere in there, spread out over four years... I am so glad you can breathe again. I am also very glad that high school is not upon us yet. :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lovemykids Posted March 6, 2010 Share Posted March 6, 2010 For ninth, I think we may do American Literature (LL 9 and Excellence in Literature) and American history as well. Tentatively projecting.... ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
susie in tx Posted March 6, 2010 Share Posted March 6, 2010 9th grade has been: TOG History/Geography Y2U3U4Y3U1, hopefully we'll finish Y3U2 TOG R level Literature CW Diogenes Maxim, would really like to get to Chreia, but I doubt it Biblical Hebrew2 and Torah Appreciation, with several public speaking engagements canting aliyah LOF Beginning Algebra Just started Kolbe Physical Science PE has been on the back burner, hope to get to that this summer as she wants to get certified to be a life guard Volunteering in the nursery at least once a month where she is often responsible for coming up with a craft and teaching it to the children. This is not what I had planned, but it's what we've ended up doing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tentatively projecting.... ;) You know, I'm really excited about doing American literature/history in 9th. I didn't feel like my son was ready for the hard core ancient literature thing *and* he was also ready for a break from world history after the second rotation. American history and literature seems to be the perfect solution. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

American history and literature seems to be the perfect solution. I like the idea as well; we may study a little ancients on the side (if we have time). At least a Great Book or two.. I also really like the fact that we can do the Lit w/ the American history, instead of studying them disjointedly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LanaTron Posted March 6, 2010 Share Posted March 6, 2010 This is for my eldest, who will start 9th in the fall. My dd coming up 1 year behind him will have a slightly different schedule. And it is, of course, highly subject to change. 9th grade: Algebra 1 English (grammar, lit, writing) History (ancients) Conceptual Physics French 1 Latin 2 OR Computer programming (1/2 credit) Logic (1/2 credit) 10th grade: Geometry English (grammar, lit, writing) History (Middle Ages) Biology French 2 Finish Latin 2 OR computer programming OR start Spanish (1/2 credit) Rhetoric?? (1/2 credit) 11th grade: Trig/pre-calculus English (lit, writing) History (Early Modern) Chemistry French 3 Computer programming OR Spanish (1/2 credit) Rhetoric (1/2 credit) 12th grade: Calculus ?? English (lit, writing) History (Modern) Physics French 4 Computer programming OR Spanish (1/2 credit) Rhetoric (1/2 credit) I plan on doing Atelier art with him and his siblings during the summers, and he plays French horn and sings in choir at music co-op. He's also in Scouts. He may join a debate team at some point, and we just started going to a new church, so he may end up joining the youth group and classes there--it's an Episcopalian church, so I think the classes are called CYE?

choirfarm Posted March 6, 2010 Share Posted March 6, 2010 Here it is so far 9th Chalkdust Geometry Intro and Intermediate Logic Apologia Chemistry TOG Year 3 for literature and history English consisted of TOG, IEW C and Elegant essay, Vocabulit and Analytical Grammar SOS Spanish 10th Chalkdust Algebra II Statistics AP Apologia Physics TOG Year 4 for literature and history SOS Spanish 11th Chalkdust Pre-Calculus Health/Personal Finance Spanish at junior college AP science either Chemistry or Physics Computer Programming at junior college TOG year 1 for literature only AP Government 12th Calculus- not sure if he will take it at jr college or at home Spanish??? AP science of some kind History- I'm not sure. He could do TOG year 2 or a class at a college TOG year 2 lit and study for AP English exam I'm just not sure about 12th yet. He needs a speech class. I'm hoping to get him involved in debate, but we'll see. He's awfully shy, but such a researcher. His brother LOVES to argue. They would make a great team. He could do tons of research and his brother present. Christine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnandtinagilbert Posted March 6, 2010 Author Share Posted March 6, 2010 Just wanted to jump in and say thank you all for taking the time to put this out. I will get back my binder from my friend this weekend that has all the info for FL requirements. Then I get to sit down and block this out. I can't believe I'm so nervous!

Bee Posted March 6, 2010 Share Posted March 6, 2010 I've looked at the requirements for several colleges too. For 9th grade, next year, I am planning to have dd do English, math, science, American history, physical education, and Spanish. I'd like her to do logic, and she wants me to set up a course in cultural studies as an elective. I have ideas and general plans for the next 4 years but nothing is set in stone yet. I'm not even 100% sure exactly what curriculums I'll be using next year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joan in GE Posted March 6, 2010 Share Posted March 6, 2010 (edited) 9th grade Eng I Advanced Composition (online course with 10 pg research paper) World History I Am Gov 1/2 credit World Geography 1/2 credit Geometry & start Alg II French II German Intro (no credit) Fine Arts 1/2 credit (Music and art appreciation and art skills) Chemistry Typing 1/2 credit Life skills (no credit) PE (short courses in sailing, squash, track) 10th grade Eng II French III German I & start II World History II Physics - College Prep level Alg II/Trig & start Pre-calc (hopefully work through summer) AP Human Geography Fine Arts (as above) Life skills (no credit) PE (track) 11th grade (or possible prep for Swiss matu) Eng III - prep AP Eng language and composition (probably online course) French IV German finish II start III Biology AP Physics B (online) fin Pre Calc prep for AP Calc AB (this all depends on past summer progress) World History III Fine arts (as above) Economics 12th grade (depends on success of 11th grade and whether he can take a special math course at the university, if he has done part of Swiss matu, or if he's aiming for US university). Plan A Special math course AP Physics C French V German IV or AP Computer programming Plan B AP Physics C Calculus AB or BC French V German IV or AP Law (1/2 credit) Philosophy (1/2 credit) Special project Computer programming Elective (optional depending on special project times) Plan C Prep for Swiss matu I think getting past 9th grade was the most difficult. Though now I have Nan's comments about Peace Walking vs Good University playing in my head to make me wonder about this plan...

laughing lioness Posted March 6, 2010 Share Posted March 6, 2010 4 credits English (grammar, comp and literature -always including vocab and for my 15 yo spelling though not counted on credits). I've counted Traditional Logic here, too. 2-4 cr. Math (depending on kid) & I've counted Symbolic Logic here, too. 2-4 cr. Science (depending on kid) 4 cr. History 1-3 cr. Gov/ Econ (though we usually do more because of TeenPact and working on campaigns) 4 credit Fine Art (usually we have far more than this because we do art every year and theater every year as well as participate in a One Act Play festival) 1 cr. Speech (though we usually have more than that due to TP and drama) I would love to have a debate program available. 1-4 cr. Foreign Language (depending on kid- my goal is to ramp this up for the last 3) Misc credits of Apologetics, Bible, PE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
