In this class, we will learn the Pledge of Allegiance, and travel to several states to learn about what makes each one a unique part of our nation.

Children will receive a special assignment to look up one state of their choice at home to learn how to make a report of state flags, trees, etc.
3. Games — Steinmetz/Byers
Come join us each week for a different board game. If you have a favorite, you are welcome to bring it, and we will try to get around to playing it as well.
3-5
1st Period:
1. Literature Study: The Courage of Sarah Noble — Payne
Join us as we learn about fear, bravery, and acceptance in our journey through The Courage of Sarah Noble. Each week we will read a short chapter in class and have a discussion. We will also learn some history, geography, and do activities to expand our learning further. A copy of the book is optional as we will do all of our reading in class.

This is a fun-filled class with lots of acting! Students will be split into 2 groups and perform skits for each other at the end of class every week. Content will be themed around a couple of the upcoming holidays, Bible stories and also a few funny skits.
6+
1st Period:
1a. Larger than Life: Microbiology and Microscopes — Boley
(Grades 6-8)
Starting with cells and DNA, we will learn about all the small things, including single-celled organisms, bacteria, and viruses. We’ll extract some DNA, grow our own bacteria, and learn how to use a microscope to hunt for minibeasts in a drop of pond water. We’ll have crafts, games, and discussion as we learn together. Along the way, we’ll learn about the scientists who contributed to our understanding of microbiology. This class will feature crafts, games, and discussion to help us learn and will draw from the following resources: The Usborne Complete Book of the Microscope, The Good and the Beautiful’s Kingdoms and Classification unit study, A World in a Drop of Water by the Silversteins.
1b. Middle/High School Physical Science Lab and/or Course for HS Credit — Hone
(Grades 8+)
Students will explore the amazing details of God’s creation in the physical world. Each week, students will engage in hands-on science experiments that correlate with the many topics covered in middle school physical science, including: atoms, molecular structure, the Periodic Table of Elements, the amazing properties of water, the physics of motion, Newton’s Laws, gravitational and electromagnetic forces, waves, sound, light, nuclear energy, and more . The best part is that this course (providing students complete weekly homework assignments) will count as a “high school science with lab” credit. Or students can participate in class, without completing homework, to get a high school lab credit—allowing them to complete the course work at another time. [For those desiring to complete the assignments and earn high school credit, it will be necessary to purchase Apologia’s Exploring Creation with Physical Science 2nd ed. published in 2007 from a used curriculum marketplace such as homeschool classifieds.]
TIMING: Begins at 1:15 pm through first period (to allow enough time for completing experiments)
LENGTH: FULL YEAR course (both semesters)
FEE: TBD (depending on class size; probably about $30 or $15/semester)to cover experiment supplies and course materials
2. Let’s Talk — Deppe
(Grades 8-up)
This class is designed to remove the intimidation factor and provide fun opportunities for public speaking. Some of the “talking” topics will include presenting Children’s Literature, Bible reading, humorous monologue, spoken-word poetry, how-to presentation, sales pitch, and interview skills.
3. Functional Fitness–Kise
Come join me for a fun activity class with a decent dose of interesting instruction as well. We will explore topics such as working toward individual fitness goals, cultivating habits, strength and mobility, lifestyle wellness, nutrition, brain health, joint and bone health, heart and lungs health, but most of all we will move, play, challenge ourselves and have fun! Students will keep a fitness journal. We may be outside on some weather-cooperative days, so dress accordingly and bring water. If a student chooses to do the at-home workout suggestions, this class can be counted for a 1/2 Health/PE credit.
2nd Period:
1. Box of Chocolates ART EDITION — Barr
(Grades 6-8)
This class will be a fun exploration into creative pursuits. We will be doing different projects and learning about the elements of art with a focus on drawing. Class Fee: $5
2. Career Quest: Charting Your Path to Success — Durham/Bonds
This is a dynamic co-op class where students will engage with guest speakers sharing their career journeys and gain insights into diverse professions and pathways to get there. In addition to hearing the real-life stories and experiences from SHHC parents, this course introduces students to useful life skills such as time management, interview and application skills, critical thinking, and decision-making. The goal of Career Quest is to familiarize the students with some of the options available to them to pursue a career or start businesses. Students will hear about the various pathways they can take
such as college, trade school, or, even starting and running businesses.
3. Everyday Apologetics — Wright/Kise
Did you know that when you breathe, your body takes in a mash-up of several different gases and efficiently filters out the 21% of oxygen it needs for healthy body function while rapidly getting rid of the rest? You do this every moment without thinking! This class in everyday apologetics will train our minds and spirits to do the same thing — take in masses of information from media, consumer, educational, and other sources, filtering out the arguments set up against the knowledge of God, and utilizing the TRUTH for a healthy mind and spirit. We will look at current events and other cultural media in order to train our minds in how to recognize worldly philosophies and debunk them according to the Word of God. Join us as we discuss, role play, debate and settle Eternal Truths into our hearts and minds.
