School Planning: High School
That would be Isaac. He’s in 10th grade this
year. Several of his courses are technically Grade 11. That doesn’t necessarily
mean he’s a year ahead. He’s doing ALL his core courses with BJU Press Online
Distance Learning. I’ve come to the place where I technically could teach these subjects, but I have
difficulty doing them justice with the time in my day. I did feel a little bad
when I found an old note from Isaac that said, “I’m glad I have a mom who can
teach me algebra.” We got lost in Saxon
Algebra 2 and with its spiraling style I couldn’t figure out where we got off
track. No biggie – he’s a 10th grader. If at first you don’t
succeed, try, try again!
Here’s the short version:
American History
Algebra 2
Chemistry
Spanish 1
Writing and Grammar 10
Literature 10
For Bible, I’m combining Isaac and Hannah and teaching the
Bible Truths C. (A BJU Press book – but not the one used for distance
learning.) He’ll continue working in Balancing the Sword and watch a lot of
online sermons.
Other extras – a little bit of Rosetta Stone, a little bit
of music theory & piano & maybe guitar, continue photography, Haiti
trip, lead some P.E. days with the younger children, and spend some time at the
gym.
I’d love to do Spanish 1 with him “just for fun” – I can
probably do it through the first couple of weeks. LOL! Ja, Ja, Ja!
