Description

Is your child prepared to function as an adult? Get ready because there is a lot to know! This discussion-based course dives into the series called Uncle Eric’s Model of How the World Works by Richard J. Maybury. We will lay the foundation for basic working knowledge of politics, economics, law, and history. Many home schoolers are familiar with one of the titles, What Ever Happened to Penny Candy?, but have not yet made use of the rest of the series. Reading, note taking, and some additional writing and research assignments will be homework. I encourage every family to get the whole set, but also have a limited number of books available to rent for $30/semester.

Contact teacher for information about renting books: [email protected]

Required Books:

1. Personal, Career, & Financial Security

2. What Ever Happened to Penny Candy?

3. What Ever Happened to Justice?

4. Are You Liberal, Conservative, or Confused?

We will NOT complete all of these books in one semester; if you do not plan to buy the whole set, obtain #1 & #2 to get started.

Prerequisite: A basic knowledge of world history and geography is very helpful. This class is geared toward 10th-12th graders.

*Please note class will have a week break; date TBD*

Testimonials

"I am really happy I attended this class. It encouraged me to start reading non-fiction and sparked my interest in learning more. My name is Morgan, and I now own my own business, with a growing interest in finance and continuous learning. I am grateful for this class because it introduced me to the value of learning from books. If I hadn’t attended, I probably would have never gotten into learning from books or built the confidence to keep learning, even when it gets hard. Additionally, my understanding of world history has grown significantly, thanks to this class. This experience has been very enriching, and I’m thankful for the knowledge I gained."
