Our plans for 11th grade are somewhat modified because my oldest will be in France for part of the year as an exchange student. I'm thrilled he will have the opportunity to really establish his language skills while attending a high school in France and living with a French family for 3 months. If you are interested in a similar experience for your high schooler, or if you are willing to host a student from another country, read more here and contact me!
History and Lit: continuing our great books approach. We will be in year 3 and using a modified version of the well-trained mind reading list for year 3. He will also study for and take the AP US History exam.
Thesis: He will complete an extended junior thesis this year. In 9th and 10th, he completed a standard research paper. His project this year will be longer and more involved. Details of how to do a junior and senior thesis can be found in the WTM.
