If you read my last post, you will know that my son is a rising Jr. My 13 year old daughter is only 1 year behind him. Her plan for finishing high school is a little less clear. I do know that while he is taking the calculus and physics route with plans to study computer science and graphics, she is a much more a practical thinking person (versus theoretical) who wants to be an actor and costume designer. Plus she is already frustrated with Algebra, so I am worried about Algebra 2 and Calculus. After a conversation with her and my husband, here is how I think it will go:
Grade 10:
~*Continue Algebra 1, then study for Algebra Clep Test. This will equate to Algebra 1 plus College level Algebra 1
~Biology (non majors biology hippocampus)
~Spanish 2
~Intro to Chinese
~Modern Literature
~Study for US History 1 Clep Exam & then do US History 2
~Artios Academies for chorus, Christian World View, Musical Theater, Musical Theater Dance, Voice Lessons
Grade 11
~*Geometry? Teaching Textbooks?
~Chemistry
~Chinese 2
~Grammar/ Lit: Analyzing and Interpreting Lit CLEP
~US History 2
~Artios Academies electives in Theater and Music
Grade 12
~ *Maybe Personal Finance or perhaps Algebra 2
~American or English Literature
~Artios Academies electives in Theater and Music and a Senior Project
I would love some input in the flexibility of homeschool math and College admissions!
*This is a work in progress... I have already several things since I have posted this.

I love Teaching Textbooks, too! :)
Actually TT is not my favorite... I think that kids don't retain what they have learned down the line 2-3 years, but I own it and I don't feel she needs to retain THAT MUCH geometry ... just my opinion.
