(Caution 3 megabytes may take a few minutes.)   Alpha Omega LifePacs:  This is an excellent curriculum, winner of several awards. It emphasizes the "mastery learning" method, which states that students learn best when they truly master the content or the skills taught in one level before progressing to the next. With its parent/teacher-directed activities, self-test, and final test, makes "mastery learning" a reality with each child. Switched-On Schoolhouse Software: This highly motivating and challenging multimedia-enhanced CD-ROM program offers a wide variety of interactive problems to keep your student actively involved in learning. Material is thoroughly taught and reinforced with the "Focus Learning" system. Landmark Curriculum:  This is a Biblical, full-line curriculum, providing all grades from pre-kindergarten through high school with all subjects: Bible, English, Spelling, History/Geography, Literature, Math, and Science. Saxon Curriculum: Through a unique instructional method called incremental development, all Saxon programs introduce concepts in understandable parts which build upon each other. Previously learned material is continually reviewed and practiced throughout the year. Topics are not dropped, but grow in complexity so learning is systematic and sequential. For more information about the Saxon philosophy, please see the inside front cover. Italic Curriculum: Italic is a modern handwriting system based on enduring letter forms that are highly suited to rapid and legible writing. Italic conforms to natural, rhythmic hand movements. Italic builds on previously learned concepts and the letter shapes remain the same from basic to cursive, eliminating the abrupt leap from "ball and stick" to looped cursive. Self-assessment is an integral part of the program.   Power Glide Foreign Language Program: Power Glide courses are designed to help you discover grammar by yourself, as you gradually soak up the language. The difference between Power Glide and so many other language programs is that Power Glide doesn't rely on mere shortcuts or tourist phrases. Power Glide offers real language learning--the kind where you internalize the language and begin using it as your own. The best time to acquire languages and a life-long love for them is at an early age. Power Glide developed a Parent's Guide so parent (teacher) could go through the learning experience with their child. The Parent's Guide includes instructions, objectives, lesson plans, tips, and suggestions for activities to be done with your child. Instead of only written words, the Children's Course uses pictures.                 Apologia Science Curriculum: An exciting, new, easy to use, enjoyable Science curriculum. It has been developed especially for the home school family. "Exploring Creation With Physical Science" is designed to be a systematic introduction to science and is recommended for 7th or 8th grade students. "Exploring Creation With General Science" is recommended as an 8th or 9th grade course, generally taken before high school biology.   "Exploring Creation With Biology" is designed to be a first-year high school science course, and is recommended for the same year that students take Algebra I. "Exploring Creation With Chemistry" is designed to be a first-year high school chemistry course for the student who has already completed Algebra I. "Exploring Creation With Physics" is designed for the student who has completed chemistry, with plenty of science experience. "Advanced Chemistry In Creation" for the student who has already completed one year of high school chemistry. When added to that first-year course, this course "fills in the gaps", giving the student the equivalent of the first year of college chemistry. Draw Today: "Draw Today" is a logical and sequential program that teaches anyone to draw realistic rendered images. Anyone can learn to draw realistic images of friends, family and famous faces, animals, landscapes and still images. No talent or pre-training needed. "Draw Today" teaches two simple skills: (1) To see what is really there, and (2) to place what is seen in its proper location and scale. Comes with 90-minute instruction video, 56-page instruction book and all needed art and paper supplies for the course, along with a toll-free help line for instructors. Reason for Writing: This is one of the most complete Scripture-based handwriting curriculum available. Students will not only have the opportunity to improve their handwriting skills, but will find themselves learning meaningful Scripture passages and having an opportunity to share them with others as well. Studying God's Word:  This series encourages students to conform their thinking to the standard of God's revealed Word. More than ever before, young people need to be equipped with the whole armor of God's Word. Spectrum Test Prep: Spectrum Test Prep contains the subject areas that are  represented in the five major standardized tests.   California Achievement Test (CAT/5) Comprehensive Tests of Basic Skills (CTBS/4) Iowa Tests of Basic Skills (ITBS, Form K) Metropolitan Achievement Test (MAT/7) Stanford Achievement Test (SAT/9)   Spectrum Test Prep provides a complete presentation of the types of skill covered in standardized tests in a variety of formats.   Reading Language Math   Spectrum Test Prep can help students become familiar with the test-taking experience.  It can help to build self-confidence, reduce test anxiety, and provide the opportunity for students to successfully show what they have learned. Introduction to Koiné Greek "Introduction to Koiné Greek" is a unique new approach to learning the Greek that was originally used to write the New Testament.  The course (divided into 180 lessons) takes the student very quickly into translating the entire First Epistle of John.  Most of the concepts used in translation are then learned by example while the student is also gaining new insights into God's beautiful words.  This course (14 booklets) contains everything you will need to translate the entire First Epistle of John into English.  It includes a copy of the Greek text and all the reference materials necessary to render it into sensible English.  Although designed to be used for home schooled High School students it may be used equally well as a self-study guide for adults or in a classroom. $49.95 PAGE ONE  PAGE TWO   Front Desk||What's New ||FAQ||Forms||Enroll 2006-2007||Online Bookstore||Requests Site Copyright © 1998-2006.
