Curriculum

High School Overview


"This curriculum is for those who want to love and live for God." -- Caleb, age 14

My Father's World has developed a comprehensive four-year curriculum that integrates Bible, history, and English (3 full-year credits). Each year has detailed daily lesson plans and a complete book package.

Our high school curriculum covers all needed language arts; no other supplementation is needed. However, if a student has not had formal grammar instruction, he should complete Applications of Grammar. If a student is weak in composition skills, he should complete Writing Strands Level 4.


"The way the high school program is laid out is so straight forward. There is never a question about what he is supposed to do on any given day. It is challenging curriculum as well; it makes him think. This high school curriculum will definitely get him ready for college level work." -- Linda

Ancient History and Literature (includes Old Testament) - A one-year curriculum for 9th through 12th graders that integrates history, English, and Bible (3 full-year credits). You will need to add science, math, and electives such as foreign language.

Why Ancient History and Literature in high school?

While reviewing the sequence of the high school program you may be asking, "Can my student skip Ancient History and Literature since it is not a state requirement for graduation?" Though not state-required, My Father's World believes Ancient History and Literature is critical to a Biblical scope and sequence for high school. This program provides high school students with a solid foundation in Bible that includes reading the entire Old Testament. Integrating Old Testament readings with the study of ancient cultures and literature meets the greater goal of educating children with solid Christian beliefs, while achieving strong academic goals. Ancient History and Literature helps high school students embrace a strong Biblical worldview by developing analytical skills and spiritual maturity. Students will be faced with many thought-provoking life issues including, "Will I live for my pleasure, or will I live for God's glory?" Ancient History and Literature is important for all high school students, even those who have recently studied this time period. Don't miss this great opportunity to give your children more of God's heart for His people and His creation while preparing them for college or a career.
