Welcome! ☕️ I hope today's video is helpful for those asking for MORE HIGH SCHOOL CONTENT! I hear you and I see you! 😀 Have a blessed day! ❤️ Please share this video with anyone who might find it helpful or encouraging. 💕

@kimberlyeisfeld8389 Год назад

I can use all the homeschool high school videos you can make! I currently have a 10th grader who will start a part time job in March and love that he’ll be accountable to someone other than me… he’ll learn so much about finances! I feel so calm after watching your videos ! Thank you!

@SimplyLivingIt Год назад

So glad you find them helpful, Kimberly. 💕

@dedrarainey7903 Год назад

FYI Shormann algebra 1 is 1 algebra credit and 1/2 geometry. Then you take algebra 2. That gives you the other algebra credit and the other 1/2 credit of geometry.

@SimplyLivingIt Год назад

Yes, thank you! In our state however...credits are tracked differently. A 1 year course is 2 credits...one semester course is 1 credit. 😊 That's what I was referring to. My apologies if it confused anyone!

Yes to teaching our boys to become working leaders and to have a great work ethic. So many parents pamper their boys and they are immature and never become a real man. Love that your son is working - life skills are essential!

Love your videos ❤ I am just getting ready to graduate one!! It goes so fast! I have no idea what I was doing, lol, but he was accepted into Embry-Riddle Aeronautical Science university in Florida with a scholarship!!! Made me realize that all my doubts were in my head and even though I doubted myself, I was making the right choice and he turned out fine. Keep going Mommas!! God is right there with you every day and your kids are learning so much more than you realize in your comfy, loving home. ❤

Great video! Thank you. I’ll be starting high school with 2 girls next year. I did want to say the I think that 2 years of shormann math count for the 3 credits… not just the one.

My mom started homeschooling me my 10th grade year! I spent my high school years studying worldview/apologetics and getting college credits! I was then able to graduate college at 19 (about to turn 20!) Pretty crazy now my oldest is a 7th grader. 😢

@jennynelson2337 Год назад

Great video! My oldest is starting "8th" this year & I wanna start trying to bring in & track some credits, possibly! Been trying to wrap my brain around the "high school, transcript stuff" Love The fact that we can all use "grade levels" loosely, & use whatever resources & information we need to use to help them learn (lower or higher levels)! Thanks for sharing! Love how u let people know that its ok & a fact that we as homeschoolers can choose to shape it , however we choose & do what works! Thankful that theres no "set" way! Simplify as much as possible or bring on the load.... Thank u for your videos & inspiration on simplifying & truth!

@nicoleharper6107 Год назад

I think that’s great that your son is working. It is so important that they understand and have good work ethics. As well as how to manage money while they are under your roof. I graduated my oldest from homeschool in 2021 and as a freshman she got a job at a Veterinary Clinic the day she turned 15. She wanted to be a vet tech so we wanted to get her in the field to make sure she liked it. She has amazing work ethics and they recognized her responsibility and maturity and abilities taught her soooo much. She also ran track and was taking a full load of dual enrollment classes. As well as what I had her do too. She is going to a Trade college for Vet Tech and graduates in July. She has a full time job as a vet tech and loves it and is getting married in May!!! My second daughter is graduating this year. My momma heart is full and emotional. My 3rd daughter will graduate next year and then I have more time before my 2 sons graduate. But your doing awesome and I love to watch your videos.

@SimplyLivingIt Год назад

Nicole!!!!! Wow!!!!! You have done an amazing job, mama! Thank you for sharing some of your experience...it is SO encouraging! 💕

@JuliaCantley Год назад

I agree it's not an intimidating as you think it is. Once I just "brain dump" all the things I'm thinking and get all information together that they need to graduate, check lists, etc... it makes it so much more exciting to do this. It's going to be hard but fun.

@homeschoolmaof3 Год назад

@L--C Год назад

I think your son having a job is amazing!! It is so so good for boys especially to work and work hard. There is so much education found in work experience and earning/managing money. I’m so glad you aren’t letting people get to you with their comments about it. My 9th grader is still 14 and we haven’t found an outside job that fits yet, but he wants to work and I hope he can find something soon. I will absolutely make time in homeschooling for it!

Great video ❤ I dropped out and I needed a transcript for a job promo so I ended up purchasing it online for $500 I’m all good now tho

@sherrikmcintyre Год назад

Just an FYI, only completing Alg 1 gives him 1 credit for Algebra and 1/2 credit for geometry. He will need to take Alg 2 to get the second alg credit and the other half of the geometry credit. We love Shormann Math.

@KMAMomma Год назад

We love Shormann! My 10th grader is doing their biology this yr and really enjoying it. I enjoy the grading done for me 🤣🙌 unfortunately she had already took Algebra 1 before we found Shormann so we decided to finish her maths with Teaching Textbooks. I love they have integrated geometry into the Algebras tho! 3 credits in 2 yrs? Yes please! That's our plan for my current 7th graders when the times comes.

@SimplyLivingIt Год назад

That is amazing! I'll have to check out their biology!!! 😃

@JuliaCantley Год назад

I don't understand how in world you can only do 8 weeks of something and stop lol... I reverse plan but I do keep some sort of schedule or something that we do, so I don't forget. I have to or I WILL forget. We do fix it grammar in our morning time/family subjects at the table.

@agma19 9 месяцев назад

My question is what is a credit equal to in your state? The most a high school student is able to earn per year in our state would be between 20-30 for all 4 years of high school. Since each one is about 120-150 hours per subject per year, I can't see how my student would be earning 20 in one year alone? Wow, he could graduate next year as a sophomore then!

@SimplyLivingIt 9 месяцев назад

Our state is one of few that track credits differently! Minimum credit hours to graduate is 46. 😊 One credit = 60 hours of instruction. 29 credits come from core subjects alone. It can be confusing to others when sharing high school stuff, so I backed off that a little! 😊 Hope that helps!

@reneec3186 Год назад

I have one about the graduate and I'm hearing that the transcripts need to have an embossed stamp for colleges to accept them.

@Olivia52467 Год назад

Are you doing shormann algebra 1 and 2? I believe it's 3 credits for both Algebra 1 and 2. 1/2 credit for geometry each algebra year.

@PenniesAndSalt Год назад

Yes, algebra 1= 1 algebra 1 credit and .5geometry and algebra 2= 1 algebra 2 credit and .5geometry So if you complete both levels it would give credit for 3

@Olivia52467 Год назад

Thank you! I was a little confused and wanted to clarify, just in case anyone else was looking into Shormann.

@SimplyLivingIt Год назад

Yes! Thank you for clarifying that Megan! If you completed them as a whole (alg 1&2), you would get credit for geometry and both Algebra courses...that's what I was trying to say! 🤪 Without actually taking a seperate geometry course! Regarding the number of credits... our state gives 2 credits for a year course and 1 credit for a semester course...so I understand my credit count may have confused some who live elsewhere. 😅

@heathercastillo2238 Год назад

The homeschooling high school pamphlet you have from HSLDA, is it only available to members only? Couldn’t find it.

Shormann math❓- are u able to do the lesson/problem over as with TT until you get it right? And (full of ❓❓-sorry) are u doing his diploma yourself? I’m thinking of going until the 12th grade & letting him go to GED classes. At ours, they have several career opportunities as they’re taking their GED classes.

@CalmintheChaosHomeschool Год назад

Quick question. How many credits will he need to graduate? In our state most kids take 6-8 credits a year and need 24 to graduate. So the system must be very different.

@SimplyLivingIt Год назад

Yes, I'm sorry! Our credits are tracked differently. 😊

@June_Hollywood Год назад

One year of Algebra 1 with Shorman is 1 credit for Algebra and .5 credit geometry. The second .5 credit geometry is met with Algebra 2. I think you misunderstood that.

@SimplyLivingIt Год назад

Hey Rachel! I should have mentioned that our state tracks credits differently. What I was referring to is how we would credit the given courses per our states requirements. Sorry for the confusion there. 😊

@June_Hollywood Год назад

@@SimplyLivingIt Oh interesting. I thought it was universal as in at least 80% of a course is 1 credit. Or 120 hours of work on the subject etc. Do you have a resource on how people can find awarding credit guidelines for their state? That’s also confusing for people living in more than one state for their high school years.

@SimplyLivingIt Год назад

Yes, it can be super confusing! I use HSLDA for everything as well as mamas who have walked before me! 😊

@jeniferteodoro4513 Год назад

How are you getting 2 credits for most subjects in 1 year? What do you put on transcript for job? My daughter has been working for a year. I was just wondering how they works?

@SimplyLivingIt Год назад

Hey Jennifer! 😊 In our state, a 1 year course = 2 credits. A one semester course =1 credit. His transcript will read "work release" for his specific working semesters. I did it in public high school but only as a senior. Be sure and check HSLDA for your state requirements in that department as each state varies! I hope this helps make sense of what I shared today. 💕

@jeniferteodoro4513 Год назад

O wow!! Does your state require more credits to graduate? Yeah, I definitely need to look into how to add her work hours as credit. Thanks Jamie

It depends on the length of the course and hours spent learning that specific subject. In our state, a one year course is worth two credits and a one semester course is worth 1 credit. However, that is not the case for all states. Check out HSLDA, I linked it above. There are so many helpful resources there! 💜
