Plans for 2010-2011

This is what we'll be doing for next school year.  I'm listing by child though we'll continue to do as much together as we possibly can.  Sharing our learning was a large part of what we enjoyed this past year.

K13 - Ninth Grade

We are beginning work on our equivalent to a high school diploma with honors for our state.  As a compromise for K, she'll be attending the local high school for Algebra, French and Band.  We participate in Community Bible Study as a family.  This year we'll be learning about The Acts.  We also participate in a local choir and drama group that is planning to stage a performance of The Sound of Music in the spring.  The remainder of her studies will be at home.

  1. Have you used Fallacy Detective and Thinking Tool Box before? I am thinking about this for my soon to be 11 year old.

    Looks like you have a great year planned! I need to do some planning myself. You have inspired me!

  2. I've been trying to work on my plans for awhile now. I keep second guessing myself. Curriculum is bought, but I am trying to figure exactly how I want to work it. Mine is going into Gr. 1 too, we are doing Song School Latin as well. Your plans look great, congratulations! It must be a relief to get that done.
