So many projects going on! Summer is a whirlwind of planning, teaching one day classes, and brushing up on research – – and before we know it, fall will be here! Classes will be in session soon!
What is new for fall?
-a World Geography class for teens which filled within 48 hours of advertising on homeschool email lists. So many of my college students can’t name the world’s oceans, and have no clue about the major issues affecting our planet. I’m excited to c0-teach this class with Tinamarie Panyard! If you didn’t get a spot this year, do let me know –you will have first placement next year!
-The APs are back! AP World AND AP European!
–Approaches to Literature is also back! The students elected Anna Karenina to start off the semester!
-By request, I’ve designed a class on Espionage and History! Come and explore spies from the ancients to Aldrich Ames and beyond!
–Age of Revolutions! This is the final part of the original four year cycle that started off my homeschool class program many years ago. The class meets primarily at the Metropolitan Museum of Art. Come learn about discovery, domination and absolutism, and watch it all explode!
-for the younger ones (7-11ish), I am offering Medieval Adventures, an inquiry based exploration of all things Medieval!
Not so into full semester classes? Do consider…
-the ONE DAY CLASS PROGRAM! By popular demand, I will be offering a series of one day classes on various themes.
–CONTROVERSIES, the teen meetup club that allows teens to voice their views. It’s an election year! So much to discuss!
–Songs of Ice and Fire Book Club! Have you read the books? Watched the show? Come out and discuss it with other teens!
