Hour 2 Class Descriptions
Logic of English: A complete phonics, reading, handwriting, and spelling program. Level A: Students will gain phonemic awareness, increase reading comprehension and fluency, and start developing fluid handwriting. (With this program we have the option of learning manuscript or cursive. We will discuss with parents their preference after sign-ups)
Cost: $3
PE: The human body is a beautiful thing! As young people grow in their awareness of all the things they can do it is a great time to work on balance, strength, flexibility, endurance, and more. We will play games, learn new skills, and compete against ourselves as well as in teams to grow and prepare ourselves for a lifetime of sports or activities or whatever God has for us.
Let's Cook: We'll learn about measurements, temperatures, recipes, and taste buds!
Cost: $10
Legos: Students will have the opportunity to show their creativity as they build Lego creations! Each week will offer free play (with project ideas) and a time at the end of class for show and tell. There will also be some activities and some building challenges scattered throughout the semester. Students are encouraged to bring their own Legos with which to build.
The Toys, Engineering and Food that Changed America: We will be watching episodes from the History Channel Series The Toys that Built America, The Engineering That Built America, and The Food That Built America. Each student will be given an outline to take notes during class. They will have short assignments throughout the term. Assignments will be to discuss the challenges, successes, and failures of the inventors and their inventions or designs. And what they could have done to help their success, if anything. They will be asked to create, design or invent something of their own. Think of challenges they may have, and the solutions to overcome them. They will think both present tense and future. The assignments may be a paper written, a poster board designed, or any other source of creativity they want to use to present their idea in class.
Cost: $4 (covers purchase of worksheets from Teachers Pay Teachers)
Hour 3 Class Descriptions
Homestead Science: Little Learner's Homestead Science is an interactive homeschool curriculum that will introduce your child to small scale farming. Build Your Own Homestead is designed to give your child a better understanding of where their food comes from as they build their own imaginary homestead. This allows them to take ownership in providing food for the family whether that's understanding what they are choosing at the grocery store, helping you tend to the garden, or gathering eggs from your chickens.
Cost: $5
Coding: We will learn basic coding using scratch. No fee but each student will need a device phone, laptop, or tablet that can run scratch. (Scratch is a high-level block-based visual programming language. It is primarily an educational tool for programming, with a target audience of ages 8 to 16).
Chemistry Continued: We will continue the video series produced by Answers In Genesis as we explore this amazing, logical, ordered world God has created. Not only will students continue to understand the design of the periodic table, we will dig deeper into combining elements, making solutions, naming them, and begin the process of understanding stoichiometry.
Hour 4 Class Descriptions
Creation Station: We will be digging in to bring forth everyone's inner creative genius! The kids will be given an assortment of household recyclables, random art supplies and all sorts of random objects to create just from pure imagination. We will celebrate everyone's efforts as they share with the class where their imagination lead them. There will be an element of public speaking as they share the details of their inventions and if they would have done anything differently. Maybe even contemplate if they had different supplies what would they choose. The cost for this class is donations of toilet paper and paper towel rolls, small boxes, plastic bottles, mild jugs, yarn, old craft supplies, nuts and bolts, buttons, pipe cleaners, crafting paper, ribbon, magazines, googly eyes. If you think someone could make something out of it...we want it (unless it's GLITTER. Then WE DON'T WANT IT) Let's all ask parents, neighbors, and friends if they have any old craft items to donate.
Storytime: So nice to unwind at the end of the day. Let's have a snack, hear a story, play a game, or just play!
Creative Writing: We will be exploring the exciting world of creative writing. Each student will need a notebook for class.
Spanish 2: Using the Abeka Spanish 1 Manual this class requires that you participated first semester. The textbook is very thorough and students will need to do assignments 5 days a week to complete tasks and grasp a solid understanding of the language. Grammar, vocabulary, sentence structure, as well as countries around the world that use this beautiful language will be studied and students will be tested. This is not a class for beginners.
