Welcome, daring girls! This class is based on the tips and tricks from the popular book, “The Daring Book For Girls”. (No boys allowed!) That means we’ll learn everything from history and language arts, to pocket knives and public speaking. This class is the ultimate knowledge builder; and with great knowledge, comes great responsibility. So we will also study God’s Word, answering questions most relevant to us today, how to handle them, and what God says about them.
Requirements:

I am creating this class in hopes that middle schoolers have a place to make friends. In this “class” we will socialize, play board games, have snacks and just hangout. Come join us for some hangout time!

This class will teach the basics of the Hebrew Alef-Bet. Students will learn how to recognize, pronounce and write each of the Hebrew letters and vowel sounds, as well as some words and phrases. Each student will also need to have a 3-ring binder, 2 pee-chee folders, colored pencils and sheet protectors for handouts.
We will be using various techniques in this learning experience through watching a DVD series with a corresponding workbook as well as using a notebook with multiple hand outs to add to your collection of learning materials. We will also incorporate a song, games, puzzles and coloring pages to help keep it fun! This class will have minimal daily homework.
The only prerequisite is a willingness to learn and to keep trying your best.
Horse crazy? Ready to use this interest to spur investigation, exploration, and creativity? We will cover equestrian sports, anatomy, showing, careers, breeds, horse behavior, care and much more.

The supply fee includes a book for the student's writing assignments.
Students will have an opportunity to learn outside of the classroom at the end of the term (additional cost will apply) for an experience that will include riding and grooming in a group setting. Date TBD.

This class will be learning about all the different countries in the world. How do Irish people dance? Which culture has the weirdest food? What even is the word culture? Join the hypothetical plane as it takes off to fly to different areas of the earth weekly. Let me know if your child has allergies as sometimes I will bring food originating from the place. We will have hands-on activities to go along with what we're learning and a short video sometimes of the place. One example is drawing on a t-shirt (I'll need sizes) something they liked from each country and taking it home at the end of the semester. Join the adventure as we explore God's world together!
