I've been noticing that Back to School sales are in full swing at many retailers right now. Many of us in the homeschool world are making our plans and preparations for going back to class soon too, so it's fitting that SchoolhouseTeachers.com is holding an Early Bird Back to Homeschool event with a great deal on full membership to their amazing website full of curriculum and resources.

Pay only $139 for a full year (a $40 savings!) of access to about 350 courses for all ages, preschool through high school, and there are more coming! There are no limits on the number of family members or the number of courses you can take, and with so many to choose from, there's sure to be something of interest for each of your students. Your membership also gives you access to World Book Online, which is a $250 value. World Book Online gives members access to a full encyclopedia program complete with videos, the ability to create custom timelines, tons of maps, and so much more.

Okay, but you want to know what kind of courses are available, right?! There's a LOT. And because I only have a high school student, those are the only ones I've been paying much attention to, but trust me, if you head over and take a look at the Quick Links page, you'll find all the courses listed by subject, and it's also easy to browse each subject by grade level or just use the "Browse By Grade" tab at the top of the page. Here's a sampling of the high school level courses that we've used or are considering:

SchoolhouseTeachers.com Art page has a wide range of art studies, from Everyday Easels (art based mini-units for all ages) to Art History, and from Elementary Art to Drawing With Realism for High School. We have found a lot of fun quick studies in Everyday Easels.

In the Electives section, I've found a lot of interesting material in the high school level course, Introduction to Architecture. Another unique elective course is Classical Archaeology, which I noticed after Kennady mentioned a possible interest in studying it. I don't think that will happen this coming school year, but I'm keeping it in my back pocket just in case, because it does look great!

What Kennady will actually need is a Tech credit at some point, so Graphic Design or Image Editing are electives we're considering.

Kennady has lots of music credits already, but that's the direction she is heading for her career. She'll be interning with the Children's Chorus this coming year, getting a taste of what teaching and directing is like, and of course she'll be singing with the Chorus as well. She'll also take guitar lessons. So although she's got lots of music instruction, I still think it would be helpful to concentrate on Music Theory. So she'll probably do that course this year.  Perhaps next year we could look at the History of Western Music.

Speaking of college, I found a College Choice Guidance course and an SAT-ACT Math Prep class, both of which might come in very handy.

And I require my kids to take a Consumer Math course before graduating, so in her senior year, she may well do Money 101.
