I found a definite neccessity to incorporate the real-life important activities - everyday life skills- we do around here into transcripts and schedules, etc., so I made up/compiled a list of those I thought of that we are currently planning and working toward. I am sure we will be adding to as our children grow - and so do we!FOR THE Young Men:
Bible Home Leadership- Caring for and Biblically Loving Your Wife Caring for and Biblically Training Children Marital Financial Management Setting up a checking account How to Plan Finances as a Husband So as to Not Owe Any Man Setting up and Living within Your Means - budget Saving Your Money Financing a college education Running a Family Business Considerations when buying a car ________________________________________ Local Cooperative Extension Courses Local county governments sometimes team up with universities to offer practical courses to the community, which your student may be interested in taking as electives. Examples of cooperative extension classes include: *finances 4H Home Ec *savvy consumer techniques *home economics Family Gardening *Master Gardener certification Freezing and Canning *nutrition Caring for farm animals It may even be possible for you and your student to take a course together. To find out if such classes are offered in your area, try an internet search using your county's name along with "cooperative extension." First Aid CPR Certification course. These courses are usually offered through the American Red Cross or a local hospital.
Resume Writing & Interviews _________________________________________ Competitions and Awards _________________________________________ Work Permits Most states have only appointed public school superintendents as the "issuing officer" for the work permit. Any homeschooler can go to his/her local school district to get a work permit in any state. Some private schools are issuing officers as well and in some states a homeschooler can get the permit from the state (MI is one of those states). Most states do not have an exemption for students who graduate early. __________________________________________ __________________________________________ Additional Courses: __________________________________________ __________________________________________ __________________________________________ __________________________________________ FOR THE Young Ladies:
