9th grade curriculum choices

Most of the books she'll be using this year.


Here we are in November already, and I haven't posted about April's high school plan yet. Since I have done her first progress report for her charter school I thought it'd be good to share now that we've figured out what will stay and what will go.

Most of what she started with is working. The only thing that is going to change is her science. We are going to drop the apologia Physical Science, and she'll probably do an online course.

Here are her plans for 9th grade:
History (1.0 credit):
BYU independent study: World History

Math (1.0 credit):
Teaching textbooks: Algebra
Supplement: Life of Fred Algebra
Pyramid project with Life Academy

This is a book she'll be reading for Pyramid project class. This class is a math and science based class where students learn to seek out truth using logic, science and math. This is one of the many books she'll be reading for the class.

Intelligro math is another she'll be reading for Pyramid project. (Actually, at this point of posting I think she has already read it.)

Physical Education (1.0 credit):
Daily log of physical activities throughout the year 
Kroc center pass through charter school 
Ballet

and whatever else we find interesting along the way!

    2. She was doing that science last year, and didn't get very far so I thought we could just continue it. I think I've figured out why she doesn't do it, she just doesn't like it. I just think she needs a change. I love the apologia, but I don't think it fits her anymore. I think she'll do better with some sort of online course.
