As well as their many online and off line interests. Hi Fernanda - Homeschooling is regulated at the state level, so each state has its own laws and requirements. As a website with national reach, we don't have local contacts; we recommend getting involved with homeschoolers in your area to find out more about homeschooling in your locale.
You might also find our Homeschooling section helpful. Thank you so much for sharing your 10th grade plan! I ordered World History: The Human Experience and was completely overwhelmed with how much information it covers. Would you be willing to share what sections you decided to cover? Thank you! Hi Dedra - I wish I could help, but I no longer have those records dd is a junior in college now or the book itself. I remember sitting down with the text and breaking down the chapters and reading that I wanted her to cover week by week we didn't do the whole book and I didn't include every single thing in every chapter.
The book is a great reference for general learning too - be sure to look at the reference material that isn't part of the chapters. Sorry I can't be of more help.
Thank you for all this wonderful information! Im very new to meschooling and had never heard of VideoText before. I love the idea of Algebra being taught as a complete set. My question is I did browse the website but wasnt clear on that. Also I notice you have it listed as 1cr for algebra2 so im guessing its a 1 yr couse and I would then just list it as the final topic covered Thanks in advance for the clarification!
We separated it into 2 separate courses Algebra I and Algebra II on the transcript as that is what most colleges are used to seeing. I just started to home school my daughter 10 grade. I can't afford to purchase an online curriculum. Is there any free school plans On the internet. This is all new to me. I am a single mom of 4. My daughter has severe anxieties. Thank you. Join some online groups; homeschoolers share resources all the time.
You will have to put some work in to put them together to make a curriculum, or you could use a plan like Easy Peasy's high school curriculum I haven't used it and of course you would have to evaluate it for suitability for your daughter.
Check out our High School Composition information. High school is a good time to homeschool because kids are able to take responsibility for their own learning. Best wishes to you and your daughter.

In fact, an upward grade trend —a steady rise in your GPA from one year to the next—can be beneficial to your application.
However, now you really need to buckle down. You probably have more choice in courses this year. You should definitely pursue challenging courses in your speciality —the area in which you want to focus in college. You should also explore your specialty through electives and additional courses. Our free chancing engine takes into account your history, background, test scores, and extracurricular activities to show you your real chances of admission—and how to improve them.
Many schools offer the PSAT to sophomores. Taking the PSAT as a sophomore gives you a low-stakes form of practice. You may end up taking it in the spring of this year, but if you do, it should really just be for practice. In Florida, for example, students must earn a certain number of credits in each of the core education areas in order to earn a high school diploma. Florida students are required to earn four credits in English language arts, four credits in math, one credit in an online course, one physical education credit, one creative arts credit, three science credits, three social studies credits and eight elective credits.
One credit equals one full year of a class. In some cases, such as with electives where the class is split up into two semesters, each semester may equate to half a credit, and a full year will still be required. Earning these prescribed credits usually falls into a set number of curriculum patterns.
Students have the ability to choose their class schedules in many cases, but their schedules must fulfill the right requirements, or they will risk failing to graduate. Because of this, it is recommended that students take subjects requiring four credits to graduate — English language arts and math — during every school year that they are in high school.
Students should also pursue electives as a course sequence and not take them piecemeal. Completing an elective course sequence will give students more of an opportunity to earn the required eight elective credits, but taking electives and then abandoning the next course in the sequence leads to increasingly limited elective options. Before you start your 10th-grade classes, build a strategic course load for your freshman year. Smart students will start fulfilling their graduation course requirements as soon as possible, ideally in the 9th grade or earlier.
The recommended 9th-grade schedule consists of one English language arts credit course, one math credit course, one science credit course, one social studies credit course, one arts credit course, one physical education course and one elective. Since Florida students have to take at least one course online during their high school career, many opt to take that course in their freshman year.
