Reserved for Tuesday/Thursday students.  Students will work together, with a teacher, and on their own to complete assignments given on Thursday. They’ll also get extra support in areas where they need more practice or time to reach mastery.

Children need to experience math concepts from all different angles to truly master them. We’ve spent years gathering math manipulatives, games, and resources so students can anchor fundamental concepts. Students will be guided to the materials needed for their current concept.

We believe wholeheartedly that our children need unstructured, supervised time together. Our Community Time is the answer to this need. Students eat lunch, rest their minds, and move their bodies. Board games, outdoor play items, art supplies, and more will be available.

History offers examples of people who stood up for what was right in the face of significant opposition. Their stories can inspire us to be bold. Using the Tuttle Twins Guide to Courageous Heroes students will be inspired and encouraged.

In this class, we’ll practice the great speeches of history and write our own. Students will learn to think critically and strengthen oral and written communication. They’ll research topics of interest and present interesting, engaging speeches. We’ll use the book The Captivating Public Speaker: Engage, Impact, and Inspire Your Audience Every Time as our text $18.

Worshiping and reading God’s Word together is such a blessing. Beginning our day this way helps to set the stage for open minds and hearts.

Once students reach middle school math, development is very individualized. Because of this, we’ll be using both in class instruction and an online program to allow them to move at their own pace. A 

Math Grade 8:

Assessments will be given to determine placement. In the eighth grade level, students will learn:

• Identify rational and irrational numbers and describe meanings.
• Calculate and approximate principal square roots.
• Identify and perform transformations of a figure on a coordinate plane.
• Solve problems in two variables using linear equations.
• Determine the mean, median, mode, and range of a set of real-world data.

Math Grade 9:

Assessments will be given to determine placement. In the ninth grade level, students will learn to:

• basic rules of solving equations using the associative, commutative, and other properties. 
• complete simple operations with polynomials are demonstrated with place-value blocks for conceptual understanding before being taught conventionally.
• geometry concepts include surface area, volume, and the Pythagorean theorem.

Language Arts

Eighth and ninth grade language arts focuses on strengthening writing, reading, and language skills learned previously. Students work toward mastery of complex reading passages, figurative language, summarizing, and grammarStudents will learn researching, pre-writing, organization, editing, and finalizing compositions.

Earth Science:
Students will learn about the wonders of God’s creation, including water & weather, the universe, and planet Earth. This class will cover the intricacies of earth & space science through geology, astronomy, and meteorology lessons. 

Geography:
Let’s travel around the world and learn about the geographical details, cultures, animals, and other elements of each continent. This is a hands-on, experiential class with cooking, research, presentations, and more.

Reserved for Tuesday/Thursday students.  Students will work together, with a teacher, and on their own to complete assignments given on Thursday. They’ll also get extra support in areas where they need more practice or time to reach mastery.

Book Club is a wonderful time to fall in love with literature, let your imagination run wild, and build friendships (both on and off the page). We’ll begin the semester by giving the students the chance to choose the books the club reads based on their shared interests from a list of options. The goal will be to read and discuss 3-4 books a semester. Reading assignments will be given for the week and class time will be set up like a casual discussion complete with tea and snacks!

This will be a project-based, research-focused class. Students will become the ambassador of a country of their choice. They’ll research the customs, people, history, food, music, religion, natural resources, and more. They’ll then represent their country to the class and share their newfound knowledge with the group. We’ll celebrate national holidays and feast days.

Life Skills:

Our children need to know how to be successful, functional human beings. Skills like planning and preparing a meal, creating a budget, changing a tire, basic self-defense, minor sewing, and more are necessary to live independently.

PE:

Physical activity is vital to a student’s well-being. This class is an opportunity to learn the basic skills of popular sports. We’ll play basketball, volleyball, golf, crossnet, dodgeball, relays, and more.

Math Grade 6:
Assessments will be given to determine placement. In the sixth grade level, students will learn:

• Understand pre-algebra concepts
• Identify decimal place value; compare and order decimals using a number line
• Know how to use ratios and rates to compare data
• Locate and plot points on a coordinate graph using ordered pairs
• Understand the relationship between fractions, decimals, and percents

Math Grade 7:
Assessments will be given to determine placement. In the seventh grade level, students will learn to:
