(Also possibly reading the Walch Marine Biology text that I picked up for my high schooler.) Also there is the history component of WP S&S that we will go through, but it looks pretty light. Lots of good projects with the Older Learners Guide. Now to work on my literature list. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sixmeadows Posted April 7, 2008 Share Posted April 7, 2008 I have to decide if we will rotate back to the Ancients next fall or do a worldview program(Starting Points) plus study of people groups/cultures world religions etc. (youngers will do Children Around the World) other than that a pre-algebra program (we are doing Life of Fred decimals and Rod and Staff now) Elementry Greek (continue) Finish Wordsmith -then? Stewart English Apologia General Science logic continue Rosetta Spanish Classical guitar and Piano lessons Art-?? I guess I have a lot that is still undecided-convention next week so hopefully I will have a more solid plan. We did LL7 this year so I could focus on doing Starting Points next fall. If we decide to do Ancients then we might continue with LL8. Cheri Cheri Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChrisN in NY Posted April 7, 2008 Share Posted April 7, 2008 English: R&S 7 (our first year with R&S; it's been an adjustment, but dd is encouraged that next year won't be nearly so rough!) Math: finishing Math U See advanced (we have the "classic" edition from older siblings, which I prefer) Science: finished Apologia General Science, on module 4 of Physical Science History/Geography: Beautiful Feet's Ancient History Latin: went through LC1 on her own. I gave her the student text and answer key and scheduled 3 half hours a week. Now she's in chapter 4 of Latin in the Christian Trivium, still the same 3 half hour periods a week, but she doesn't get the answer book anymore. :-) Logic: went through Fallacy Detective on her own, now on The Thinking Toolbox. I planned 2 half hours per week for this. Bible: Discovering Our Amazing God from deeperroots.org She's also working in Building Thinking Skills Book 3, one book for verbal and one book for figural; we alternate. I think that's all.

GailV Posted April 7, 2008 Share Posted April 7, 2008 Wow, y'all seem so organized. We're coming up on 7th, and I'm still waffling. Math Jacob's Algebra. Or Life of Fred. Or both. Latin Continue with LfC and Lingua Latina. Lit LL7 Writing Supposedly CW Homer, but it's been sitting on the shelf for 6 months without leaping off and demanding to be done, so we'll see if that happens in the next few months. Grammar I have the Harvey's to go with CW Homer, and am fighting the urge to purchase AG to use instead (because, you know, you can never have too many grammar programs sitting on your shelves). Spanish Continue RS, although dd is sure she shall perish of boredom. Science Dd is interested in Rainbow, but I'm having heart palpitations over the price. Piano Scouts -- work on Silver Award in Cadettes Irish Dance -- wants to have all dances at Novice level by Jan. 2009 Dd also wants to start Greek. And learn more about the Vikings.
