Highschool Curriculum

I think I know what I am doing for some of what I will use to homeschool highschool.

I am looking at Notgrass Exploring World History 

This program covers Bible, English and History. I love when I can combine subjects with one curriculum.  Each also tells how you can count each as a credit for High School. 

We are going to use Time4learning.com algebra curriculum. We have used the program for pre-algebra for 8th grade and like how it teaches the concepts. We will keep this one. 

The only subject I don't have is Science. Any ideas on what to do there would be great! I am at a loss on this one.

Mid February already?

This week has flown by, we are already on Wednesday!  I can't believe we are to the middle of February either! Where has the time gone? In my house it has been used to school.

Here is Moose and Honey playing a shape matching game, before we did alphabet flashcards.

Here is Biggun working hard on his pre-algebra math then he will move on to literature games. 

We also had some imaginary play. Honey was very creative in turning a back pack into a front facing baby carrier. She comes in and says

"Look Mom, I look like you when Moose was a baby."

Honey said "I have to keep the babies legs warm. Notice the puppy (stuffed animal) hanging out of the back pack? 

 Then there was Moose who had to photo bomb the picture! Got to love my Moose.

Back to School in a few more days...

Only a few more days until we go back to school. I don't know who dreads it more me or the kids. I have enjoyed the 2 week break from school. Well the littles LOVE school. They love the time4preschool.com and the kindergarden time4learning.com program along with the other LightHouse workbooks we also use. But they are young and they love doing school. They ask daily for school work. We have done some simple things but not "school."

As for Biggun he is not happy about going back to school work. But he will be more happy then he was last semester cause now he has his own laptop to work on for school. We will be adding Time4Learning.com's Algebra. I have been using time4learning.com forever it seems and did not know they had Algebra as an option. But we will try it and see how it goes. He will also be able to do his spelling list on Spellingcity.com.  There are spelling list by grade but we make our own. Since he is in 8th grade.
