luuknam Posted February 6, 2018 Share Posted February 6, 2018 Actually, it looks like we won't have to... that said, getting IHIPs approved with a completely unbalanced schedule might be an uphill battle: (iv) For grades nine through twelve: English (four units); social studies (four units) which includes one unit of American history, one-half unit in participation in government, and one-half unit economics; mathematics (two units); science (two units); art and/or music (one unit); health education (one-half unit); physical education (two units); and three units of electives. The units required herein are cumulative requirements for grades nine through twelve. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luuknam Posted February 6, 2018 Share Posted February 6, 2018 You're in Texas, right? IIRC, in Texas there are 5 subjects you have to cover every year, and that's it, for rules... but I could be wrong, since I never actually homeschooled while we lived in TX. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luuknam Posted February 6, 2018 Share Posted February 6, 2018 (edited) Also, certain possible ways to get through required high school subjects might lead to less-than-desirable results... e.g., it looks like NYS would allow me to completely ignore math from 9th-11th grade, and just let me teach 2 units in 12th grade (maybe both in spring semester even) and call it good, but that might hurt the kids' PSAT and SAT scores... plus, like I said, I bet a lot of colleges would frown on a transcript like that (even if I were to cram the recommended 4 units of math into senior year it'd look bad, I'd think).

luuknam Posted February 6, 2018 Share Posted February 6, 2018 The stuff I remember (and found again) from Texas (though just from websites, not the actual legal code): There are only three requirements to homeschool in Texas: The instruction must be bona fide (i.e., not a sham). The curriculum must be in visual form (e.g., books, workbooks, video monitor). The curriculum must include the five basic subjects of reading, spelling, grammar, mathematics, and good citizenship. I'm not sure if you have to do all those subjects every year though. You probably should find the actual laws for that, but, given no further info, I would assume yes, every year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Critterfixer Posted February 6, 2018 Share Posted February 6, 2018 I got through my writing quota, and it wasn't as hard as I thought. Dinner helped. Now I'm relaxing by sketching a pair of apples to paint tomorrow. I've got to approximate a color that I don't have, but the green I'm supposed to be using is about the color of a Granny Smith apple. I think I can do that with what I have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Susan in TN Posted February 6, 2018 Share Posted February 6, 2018 Red/purple onions are not allowed in the house. I think someone might be allergic to them. Or maybe dh hates them. I can't remember any more. I saw some daffodil shoots coming up a couple blocks from here - finally! Usually there are a few overachievers blooming by now, but it has been so cold! There are about 30 little lemon blossom buds on my lemon tree. I wish it would get warmer so I can put it outside in the sun. We went to the book discussion. There was a good turnout. Dd15 enjoyed it a lot. Dd9 forgot the colored pencils so she and dd11 were pretty bored. I'm tired. Time for bed. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(when the doc actually prescribed it to me... this stuff is from like, Vanuatu) I don't remember what percentage of a person that makes me, according to the ITT. Maybe AMJ can find it for me. Well, you started out less of a regular person (40mg), and became less and less of a person until you completely disappeared. Or, became normal. Take your pick. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The front is empty since it's stainless steel. And why does the island get cluttered so fast? I was also thinking about Planet Fitness for when the kids are at swim. But I know my track record for things like that.... Still, it's cheap.... Good morning!
