Need help (or convenience) with planning for high school? The planning has already been done for you with High School Lesson Plans! We’re separating each subject/course from our Truth Trek High School Lesson Plans Series to offer one-year, high-school level curriculum schedules so you can choose individual subjects and better customize your student’s course of study through high school. These lesson plans provide:
36 weeks of lesson plans (for full-year credits) or 18 weeks of lesson plans (for one-semester or half-credit electives)
Suggestions for earning college credit via CLEP testing for those subjects that have CLEP exams — and a high school CLEP Test Credits reference
A transcript template
A recommended option for using a one-room schoolhouse approach for all grades where appropriate (for families with younger children in addition to high school students)
Weekly prompts and reminders for parents to stay plugged in to their high school students’ learning progress
Each week of high school lesson plans consists of four days of instructions for students and wraps up with a “Co-op or Parent Meeting Day” that walks parents or instructors through a discussion of the current week’s topics and activities.
