After we laid out a basic plan we then took a look at what Michael had already done in junior high.
Math(Saxon)
He had tackled Algebra I in his 8th grade year so here is what it looked like for High School
Algebra II—9th
Advanced Math(Trig & Geometry)--10th-11th
Calculus--12th
Language Arts(various)
In his elementary/middle years we used Rod & Staff English to solidify our grasp of grammar, so we felt it was time for some more writing. Since the outside class wasn’t available we chose Wordsmith to begin a writing program.
Composition & Grammar 9th Wordsmith
Literature in American History 10th Beautiful Feet
Literature in World History 11th Beautiful Feet
Advanced Composition & Grammar 12th Outside Class
Physical Education
It is necessary & important, however, we decided we couldn’t make it happen in one year or semester. So I kept track of his exercise time over the course of 4 years and counted a full credit at the end of high school. This was a huge relief for me! We also looked for ways he could be involved in sports in a coaching capacity because that added a new dimension to sports for him. It also looks great on college applications!
