Art of Storytelling

Who doesn't love a good story? Stories are one way we preserve and observe our culture and beliefs. Stories were once told with hidden meanings and themes the reader had to discover. Let's read some of these stories and discover them. Also, let tell stories, let's become great story tellers ourselves? Think about the impact we could have on our families and friends when we tell them a great story. ~ taught by Sister Tresta Neil

Joy in Writing

Writing down thoughts, opinions, stories, and letters use to be the way to communicate. Today it is becoming a lost art. Let's not forget how to write in cursive, spell, know and understand our English grammar. We will make a grammar and spelling book in this class you can take with you on your mission or use to teach your own children. We will also watch some fun videos on remembering them. ~ taught by Sister Tresta Neil

Math Magic

Number and shapes were once taught together. God uses them interchangeably along with patterns. In this class we will discover the personalities of the numbers and shapes through hands on activities. Some will be very easy, others will be more difficult to complete but they will all help us understand numbers and shapes and their role in God's plan. Who knows, you may even discover more of your roll in God's plan too.  ~ taught by Sister Tresta Neil

Faith Works by Words

Living the words of Christ is to exercise faith in Him. In this class we’ll dive into and discover how to make your scriptures come to life. But how can you live Christ’s words, if you don’t know what they are? How can you know if His word be of God, or not—if you have not lived them? And how can you Emulate Christ, if you haven’t grow line upon line in light and truth unto perfect worship? ~ taught by Brother Kent Nielsen

Practical Math 

Math is the language God used to create the Universe. Math easily testifies of God and his son Jesus, the Christ. Math is similar to language and it many pieces, we will treat them the same and analyze each piece (numbers, shape, numeration, measurement, and operations) as it relates to the big picture. We will focus on algebra, statistics, probability, trigonometry, and consumer math. We will also do reports on real math, like repairs and budgeting. Continue working on your own math workbooks throughout the year. ~ taught by Sister Tresta Neil

We will start with small machines, formulas, solutions, and end the year with learning about the types of stars and their sizes. ~ taught by Sister Tresta Neil

Communications

There is a huge interest in bettering our communication.

This class will not teach you all things communication. We hope to help you to understand non-verbal communication indicators such as zones, tone, and body parts. And you will become fluent in the Doctrine of Persuasion. We will go over good, better, best scenarios and have lots of time to practice. ~ taught by Sister Tresta Neil

Journey Through the Arts

Words, Music, and Art are amazing things and can be put together in so many ways. We will be studying the types of literature and the men and women who put these words together, as well as the music development from pre-Baroque through the modern day. This will include types and elements of music, composers, and the makeup of the orchestra. I think music is a miracle because 12 keys on a piano can combine in infinite ways. We will also be studying the major changes in art from the Renaissance to the modern age. The various forms, principles, and elements of art will be discussed and studied with the view of appreciating the great talents God has given the artists. The major goal will be to help you find joy in art, whether participating in or viewing. ~Taught by Sister Becky Williams
