Slache Posted April 9, 2023 Share Posted April 9, 2023 Late egg hunt. We still have Easter candy leftover from last year so each egg is worth one day off math. Including Isaac... Everyone has a basket with chips, crackers, a white chocolate bunny (because white symbolizes the purity of Christ, so it's still Christian 😂) and a Cadbury creme egg. Oh, Mary doesn't get a bunny. She opted for peeps because she's pegan. 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Susan in TN Posted April 10, 2023 Share Posted April 10, 2023 So ds18 actually liked what I made for Easter dinner and had seconds of both the lamb roast and strawberry spinach salad. Svengo. He rarely eats much more a bite of anything I make. I tried to keep my astonishment under wraps, lol. Please come to my house and finish up the banana pudding and strawberry pretzel salad/dessert. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slache Posted April 10, 2023 Share Posted April 10, 2023 Because you were only partially kidding... Brown is organized by content, black is this school year and white is children's literature. And that is actually all of our books aside from a few nice books Mary keeps hidden from the baby. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slache Posted April 10, 2023 Share Posted April 10, 2023 Edpo. I want to make decisions now based on what we do for high school but I'm not 100% certain what high school will hold. I'm specifically talking about science and the fact that he wants to spend time focusing on anatomy (I'm heavily considering Apologia Anatomy) but if we were to do that we lose time for the traditional science sequence and I want to feel like I have everything covered. So I don't know if I want to start things a year ahead or drop a traditional course, like physics. Part of my issue is that I don't know what what's expected so I don't know if dropping something like physics is completely taboo or common. I don't even know if he's going to college. I wish he'd figure his life out so I can decide what to do. So, what do you do when you don't know what to do? 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slache Posted April 10, 2023 Share Posted April 10, 2023 Of course, I don't remember anything from high school physics, so maybe it's not that important... 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wheres Toto Posted April 10, 2023 Share Posted April 10, 2023 My high school didn't offer physics, which definitely made college physics harder, but I was also a science major. Oldest dd dropped physics (after cursing out her teacher), and didn't have a problem getting into or doing well in college, but she was not a science major. 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Susan in TN Posted April 10, 2023 Share Posted April 10, 2023 Good morning! It's The Queen's favorite day! I slept late. Well, not actual sleeping, just not getting out of bed until 7:30. We had leftover Easter eggs and strawberries for breakfast and since then I've been trying to get things done and put out fires. I sent an email and a text and ordered a couple things and found a couple things. This afternoon we have normal instrument lessons, choir, and scouts. Coffee! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KrissiK Posted April 10, 2023 Share Posted April 10, 2023 (edited) FWIW, in California to be college prep, you need to have one life science and one physical science (Chemistry or Earth/Space) and one of those has to have a lab. It is preferred to have 3 years of science, but two are required. Edited April 10, 2023 by KrissiK 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slache Posted April 10, 2023 Share Posted April 10, 2023 He wants to do Earth, Bio, Chem, Physics, and Anatomy, and I want him to take a formal health class, so that's 5.5 years. I was trying to decide the level of difficulty of next year's physical science course based on what we might do later because he's right on the edge between two levels. I think I know what to do, and unfortunately he'll have to make choices later, but I think by then he'll be more tuned in to what he wants anyway. He just wants to do everything. He always has, and has paid the price more than once. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At my public high school, it was lumped in with physical education. Our umbrella requires a health course - though I don't think it's counted as a science. Requires in a loose sense. Maybe "strongly encouraged" if college is going to be a consideration, though I don't know that colleges are especially concerned about seeing it on a transcript. I don't know. My brain is tired.

If he does dual enrollment later, the rest of the sciences are also completed in a semester, so that's another thought. 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
73349 Posted April 10, 2023 Share Posted April 10, 2023 The order that would the most sense IMO, if one can already do algebra, is physics, chemistry, biology, anatomy. Each builds on the one before. Is that the order I'm using with DS? No. But he had a good bit of science in middle school, so now he's in biology, then will take chemistry, then environmental science, and then presumably back to physics. 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our physics needed more than just basic algebra. Though we did a separate "math for physics" unit at the same time, to shore up what was needed. Especially for practice using certain physics formulas. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
