comments: 2 | views: 91 | last updated: 11/10/2022

I'm seeing if anyone has used a different memoir instead of A Long Way Gone to pair up with I Am Malala. I've already taught it and really do like A Long Way Gone, but I have two sensitive high schoolers this year that I'm teaching that I'm pretty su . . .

My son will be using 12-14 for part of 9th grade, but where to go from there?! Has anyone found a high school program that is similar to MBtP as far as quality and extent of literature, as well as including numerous hands-on projects? Is it time for . . .

Published in year 2015, lesson 2, it says to cut out items and create a poster but the pages are double sided so you cannot cut them out. I purchased this book used so it might have already been fixed, but wanted to share this. I know we aren't sup . . .

I bought a semester's worth of curriculum for 12-14 year olds a few years ago but we really didn't use it and I'd love to gift it to someone. They would just need to pay for shipping. Everything is in nearly perfect shape.

Hi! We are a little confused about why New York isn't labeled or asked to be colored in. Is there something political that was occurring at that time that we don't understand? We thought it was one of the original 13 colonies...

I'm looking over this story/unit to plan for the fall. In the first lesson, question two asks about Huck being imprisoned and the answer references Pap and his abuse. This does not correlate with our Huck Finn book. What book is this meant to be used . . .

I am looking at curriculum for next fall. I am wondering if the Civics Unit would cover all the things I remember we had to learn in 8th grade. I remember having to pass a Constitution Test and am wondering how thorough this unit is. I would possi . . .

High School Record-keeping

I'm planning to use 12-14 as a 9th grade curriculum for 2 of my kids, and I've read several discussions on this forum of others having done the same thing. My question is how you keep records for that, and how to award credits for it? We live in a st . . .

It seems like there may be a problem with numbers 10-11 in the answer key for the human body test...maybe I am missing something. Carbon dioxide is the answer in the key to.number 10, but there is no short answer for that number on the actual studen . . .

I noticed that there is a book covering evolution in this age group. I'm wondering how the evolution is presented. We are open to learning about many different ideas, but we are Christian and we believe in the Theology of creation.
