11th Grade Curriculum Picks (Lindsey)

Lindsey is very different from her sister, in almost every way.  They definitely have different learning styles, and the products we used for Olivia don't necessarily work for her.  Some of our items will be repeats, but not all.  Our planners never change.

U.S. History: Lifepac American History is our pick for history this year.  Lindsey really enjoys the format of the work texts, so we'll stick with that in this area.  This will link together geography, history, government, citizenship, economics and social studies.  1 credit

Language Arts:  Lifepac American Literature will be the core of our language arts study. She'll be reading The Red Badge of Courage, The Great Gatsby, The Pearl, and 1984. We'll also study Edgar Allan Poe and Robert Frost in depth.  Additional she'll be including the Easy Grammar Ultimate Series Grade 11 program, and writing more essays and short stories to round out a full language arts course. 
1 credit

Biology: We'll be using a repeat of the Science Shepherd Biology this year.  Lindsey is not a huge science fan, and the dissections aren't at all appealing to her, but this is a very strong curriculum and, well...I already have everything we need except her test booklet. 1 credit

Math:  Having already completed Algebra 1 & 2, and Geometry, we'll be focusing on more applicable math this year.  Abeka's Consumer Math will allow her to get a better understanding of finances as it applies to her personally.  This is a repeat product for us. 1 credit

American Sign Language (Year 2):  Lindsey absolutely loved Lifeprint ASL last year, and we'll be continuing with this for her junior year.  The instructor, Bill Vicars, is very engaging and an excellent instructor.  I often hear Lindsey chuckling at some funny story, or interaction he has with the students.
1 credit

That should round out Lindsey's junior year academically.  We won't know what extra-curricular things are available until we see what state of reopen things are in come fall.
