Educating for Eternity! TM

Dear Friends, Have you ever asked yourself, “ What is the best Catholic homeschool curriculum? ” This is a natural question to ask, since we all want to give our children the very best. We’d like to say that CHC is the perfect curriculum, but it wouldn’t be true! There simply isn’t one perfect curriculum. This is because every child and family is unique, so what works for one homeschooler might not work for another homeschooler. Homeschooling parents have to make their own decisions about what curriculum best matches their educational goals and their children’s learning styles. All this being said, we’ve heard from a lot of families that CHC is one of the best curricula options for new homeschoolers. This is because it combines aspects from different learning styles (full-color textbooks, hands-on projects, engaging stories) and offers a happy medium between structure and freedom. If you are new to homeschooling, beginning your homeschooling journey with CHC gives you an opportunity to “learn the ropes” without needing to stress about curriculum choices. Later, you can decide whether to continue with CHC’s full program, use mostly CHC but switch out a few subjects, use a different homeschool provider, or create your own curriculum from scratch. This decision will be much easier once you have a year’s worth of experience of your children’s learning styles and what works for your family. “When I meet other moms who are where I was before we started, I always recommend you to them. CHC is a soft spot to land.” —Jennifer, CA We bring you all before our good Jesus in our Masses and daily prayers, praying that you enjoy a relaxed and rewarding homeschooling experience with your children in the heart of your home. Your CHC Family

Designed for independent study—no prior literary knowledge needed by the parent!

Level 5 in The Treasure Trove of Literature series. Turn to pages 26–32 to learn about more Treasure Trove literature titles. Q: How is this poetry course different from The Secret Code of Poetry ? A: The first third of The Treasure Trove of Poetry consists of a revised version of The Secret Code of Poetry (see catalog pg. 33) . The revisions include the addition of regular discus sion questions and hands-on activities, while other assignments have been adjusted so that students can cover the information in less time. The remaining two-thirds of The Treasure Trove of Poetry is brand-new material focusing on epic and dramatic poetry by G.K. Chesterton and Shakespeare. Q: Can I use other editions of Chesterton and Shakespeare, or is the Anthology required? A: The Treasure Trove of Poetry Anthology is required. The annotations in the Anthology work hand-in-hand with the lessons, so using a different edition would create confusion.

Lead your student to understand and love poetry with this in-depth, Catholic program! This fifth level of The Treasure Trove of Literature series is designed for students in grades 8–10. The course is divided into three equal parts: The Secret Code of Poetry (Lyric Poetry) Students will not only read timeless poems from various eras, but will also master the art of appreciating and analyzing poetry. They will learn how poets use techniques such as enjambment, rhyme, meter, hyperbaton as a “secret code” to communicate their meaning more powerfully. The Ballad of the White Horse (Epic Poetry) In the next section, students will apply what they have learned about poetry as they read G.K. Chesterton’s The Ballad of the White Horse . Transport your students back to the 9th century as they follow King Alfred’s heroic defense of Christianity against the heathen Danes. This inspiring epic poem will inspire students to face challenges to their Faith with courage, perseverance, and joy. Excerpts from Shakespeare (Dramatic Poetry) In the final part, students will journey through 18 famous excerpts from Shakespeare, including iconic speeches from Henry V , Hamlet , As You Like It , Macbeth , and Julius Caesar . The step-by-step guide ensures that students not only understand Shakespeare’s language but also develop the skills to unravel the beauty of his works. This is the perfect introduction to the most rewarding parts of Shakespeare, leaving them eager to read more in later grades. Expected availability date: Summer 2024

Coming Soon!

This full-color religion resource is designed to help your eighth-grader grow in maturity through inspirational stories, reflections, hands-on activities, and service to others. Inspirational Stories and Activities The stories, reflections, and hands-on activities in Faith in Action touch on themes such as what it means to love my neighbor; watching our words; how God brings good out of evil; assessing “enemy infiltration” in movies, TV shows, and video games; God’s values and the world’s values; gratitude; choosing friends wisely; and more. Volunteer Projects It is essential that students not only learn their Faith, but also put it into action through service to others. Many schools arrange for students in the pre-teen and teen years to participate in volunteer activities, but this can be challenging to implement in a homeschool setting. Volunteer opportunities often require adult supervision and transportation, and there are so many other calls on the parent’s time! That is why CHC has developed a step-by-step program to guide the homeschooled student in planning and managing his own volunteer activities. Faith in Action provides scheduling suggestions; a variety of ideas for volunteer service projects, including many that the student can complete at home without parental assistance; and step-by step charts to assist the student in scheduling and managing his projects. Besides encouraging an attitude of service, Faith in Action also develops time-management and accountability skills that are essential for high school. Expected availability date: Summer 2024 Faith in Action A Hands-On Religion Resource for Eighth Grade

The volunteer project section of Faith in Action was previously published in CHC Lesson Plans for Eighth Grade . The rest of the book (about 150 pages) is a new compilation of inspirational stories and activities to help the student grow in maturity. Note: the course is not intended to replace your child’s catechism lessons but to develop and enrich them.

The all-time favorite reader Devotional Stories for Little Folks will soon be available with full-color illustrations by Catholic artist Andrea Helen Smith! Learn more about this title on page 25. Expected availability date: Summer 2024 Coming soon in full color!

PARENT RESOURCES

CHC Daily Lesson Plans for Grades PreK–8 CHC Lesson Plans offer detailed guidance along with flexibility! Public schools, private schools, and very structured home study schools often tailor the family to fit the studies; CHC Lesson Plans give parents the freedom to tailor the studies to fit the family. Thanks to the clarity of the weekly guides and daily plans, lessons can instantly be pared down to an academically excellent core in times of family overload, or expanded with enrichment activities and electives to fit the family budget and student’s interests. From Preschool to Fourth Grade, CHC lesson plans are based on a four-day week, with Wednesdays left open. This weekly “flex-day” can be used for extra-curricular activities, Mass attendance, or appointments. The student’s workload gradually increases in the middle school years, so beginning in Fifth Grade, CHC lesson plans follow a five-day week. Each lesson plan includes: • Scope and sequence for the year • Subject guide • Typical Course of Study • Weekly goals and checklists • Daily lesson plans on a two-page-per-week grid • Achievement record and certificate Daily lesson plans for PreK–8th grades. 102–174 pages each. Loose-leaf, 3-hole drilled. See pages 8–17 for more details. LP $28.95

“I AM just so amazed at how BEAUTIFUL all your materials are for all of your subjects! Beauty and Catholicism are the environment in which I want my children to grow and learn! And the best part is that I get to learn right alongside them! God bless you!” —Jane, VA

HIGH SCHOOL OF YOUR DREAMS

by Nancy Nicholson

High School of Your Dreams Guidebook High School of Your Dreams was developed by Nancy Nicholson as a guide to designing a high school curriculum that fits your student’s unique learning style, interests, and possible career goals. The High School of Your Dreams Guidebook introduces three basic approaches to high school: 1. College Track: Flexible Textbook Approach; 2. Community College/Vocational School: Independent Study Approach; 3. Apprenticeship/School-to-Work: Experiential Approach A two-part Student Profile, one part answered by the student, one part by the parent, gauges the student’s interests and aptitudes and is followed by a guide to interpreting the results. The Guidebook then proceeds to developing a tentative four-year plan, choosing core and elective subjects, deciding which materials the student will use to learn those subjects, and creating a lesson plan for the materials. The Guidebook also covers the following general topics about homeschooling through high school: what is necessary for a homeschooled student to enter college; converting homeschool study time into standard high school credit hours; creating a high school transcript; discerning career paths; and incorporating volunteering and other types of experiential learning into a high school curriculum. Includes reproducible blank forms and charts ( From Freshman to Graduate Chart , Class Lesson Plan Form, Monthly Hours Chart, Academic Transcript , and Diploma ). 186 pgs. 2019 Revised Edition. 8½"×11" Loose-leaf, 3-hole drilled. HSYD-GB $24.95 A resource to help homeschool families design and implement their own, personalized high school programs

Step 4

Explore Your Career Interests You are almost ready to plan your high school curriculum. Before you can decide how you will gain credit for English, which text or DVD series you will use for history, and whether or not you will study chemistry at your commu nity college, you need to have some idea of what your vocational and/or career goals are. For instance, if you are interested in going into the field of aeronautics, you will need to take more math and science classes than someone who is interested in journalism, but you prob

electronics engineer, broadcast technician, etc.). Take particular notice of what post-high school education is required for the

careers that interest you. You might be surprised to learn, for example, that someone who is interested in a degree in Environmental Sciences will need to take Zoology, Biology, Algebra, Chemistry, and Technical Drafting in college, and that Psychology and Biology are required subjects in college for those pursuing a degree in Criminal Justice. Knowing something of the educational requirements in your chosen field and including some or all of those classes as core subjects at the high school level considerably boosts performance in post-high school studies. If you are considering an apprenticeship in a particular profession, locate and contact someone practicing that profession. Arrange for a personal or telephone interview to learn what educational requirements are necessary to the profession; the information may also be obtained through an internet search. One might note, for example, that carpenters and electricians need math and science skills. This knowledge will be helpful when planning your high school curriculum. Where Can I Find Out More about Degrees or Training Programs for These Fields? For more information, type the degree desired followed by a career field in the internet search box, e.g., “associate’s degree veterinary technician”; “bachelor’s degree epidemiolo gist”; “master’s degree social worker.”

ably will not do as much creative writing. With your parent, look over the descriptions of possible careers found on the following pages. Based on the results of your Student Profile, select the careers that best fit your interests and abilities. Begin by choosing five careers that catch your interest; find out more about what type of experiences and work are involved in these careers. Now narrow your list of five to the two careers that most interest you. Research to find out which classes and steps would be required to enter these fields. Because most students possess more than one potential career interest or skill set, it is recommended to explore at least two different careers. For instance, Jeff loves to hike and has enjoyed taking First Aid. He decides to learn more about careers in forestry and the medical field. When you have selected the careers which best fit your abilities and goals, explore them with your parent. Which of the careers/ vocations described can you imagine pursuing after you graduate from high school? Research the various “Related Fields” to see if any of them interest you more than others (for instance, Electronics: avionic electronics,

Step 4: Explore Your Career Interests

Core Subjects: Language Arts How will you complete your core requirements in the language arts? Study the list of possible courses below, then read more about each course on the following pages. Select the courses that most closely align with your career and educational goals. Then write down your ideas in the spaces below.

Standard requirements: • English: 4 years/credits • Speech: ½ year/credit Requirements in your state: • English: years/credits • Speech: year/credit College requirements: • English: 4 years/credits, including Grammar, Literature, and Composition • Foreign Language: 3 or 4 years/credits, with a strong focus in at least one language • Speech: ½ year/credit
