AN A to Z ARTICLE

Course of Study Descriptions

It could be customized by someone needing to submit something to a school official. It would also be useful as a "suggestion list" for putting different activities under educationese-sounding headings, if you have to turn something in like a report or portfolio.

ACME Academy Course of Study - Secondary Students
This is a secondary education plan that took Carol Narigon's unschooling curriculum and expanded it using the California state educational standards' language.

Homeschooling Our Children Unschooling Ourselves
by Alison McKee
