Prerequisites: Student must have completed a basic introduction to letter sounds. This class is for early beginning readers.
Supply Requirements: Primary Arts of Language: Reading Student Book. I purchase this book for each student with your materials fees ($39).
Class description: Does your child know the letter sounds but is struggling to take off reading independently? The Early Readers class is an in depth review of basic phonics skills. This class teaches decoding skills by direct instruction. Students will study the patterns and rules of the English language, including vowel and consonant sounds, syllable rules, punctuation, homophones, diagrams, and consonant blends. We will work to recognize often used words by sight. Students will receive instruction in how to correctly divide and sound out syllables in new or longer words. This fun and engaging class will offer practice for students encountering language difficulties and will endeavor to offer unique remedial solutions for reluctant or struggling young readers. Students enrolled in this class must have already completed a basic introduction to phonics.
*This is not a class for first introduction to letter sounds. Also, this class will probably move too slowly for students who are already fluent readers.

Instructor: Tiffany Norwood

Monthly Cost: $27
One Time Material Cost: $35
Supply Requirements: 1 inch binder
Course Description:
Let's learn to dig deep when reading! For this class your child must be able to read and write on his/her own. I am not teaching how to read but building comprehension skills, which must come after learning to read.
This class will cover reading comprehension skills. These skills are the foundation of good reading comprehension. It will be beneficial for children beginning these skills or as a review for children who already know these skills. Students will be introduced to the skill, then taught how to apply the skill while reading. We will learn through a multi sensory approach so come ready to interact and learn.
Skills are: genre, author’s purpose, narrative elements, relating to text, prediction, fact and opinion, sequencing, compare/contrast, problem/solution, supporting details, cause and effect, main idea, context clues, character analysis, inferences, theme/moral, foreshadowing, summarizing, author’s style/tone, and figurative language. We will go over these skills the first half of the year through different texts. The second half of the year we will dig deeper using all of these skills as we read 3-4 different chapter books.
I rotate the books we use each year. Parents will be notified by June of the book list. I always take into consideration the average grade level of the class.

Course Description:
Volume 2 of The Mystery of History covers world history from the years of the early church through the Middle Ages which were years of growth and change for both the world and the church. The Mystery of History, Volume II presents the years 33 A.D. - 1456 through Christ-centered lens, exploring the backdrop to and significance of major cultural and historical people and events, alongside these events in the history of Christianity. Some include Pentecost, Paul, Pompeii, St. Valentine, St. Patrick, King Arthur and the Knights at the Round Table, the Vikings, Eric the Red, Leif Ericsson, Robin Hood, St. Francis of Assisi, Marco Polo, Black Death, The Canterbury Tales, Joan of Arc, the Printing Press and more!
Students are required to read three lessons per week, and be prepared to discuss them in class. The children will enjoy hands on history as we bring these events to life - sometimes tasting food from that country/culture, acting out the events, playing games, crafts and more! This class is structured to fit all ages and allows the parents to decide how lightly or deeply to go into each lesson. All pretests, tests and exercises (worksheets) are up to the parent to give and grade, if desired. The goal of this class is to help children find a love of history, not by listing the facts and memorizing the dates, but understanding what happened and why it is important. It is not necessary to complete Volume I before Volume II.

Course Description:
Exploring science is fun! This hands-on science course uses Science in the Beginning by Dr. Jay L. Wile to introduce a wide variety of scientific topics to elementary students of all ages. Because each lesson is built around an activity or experiment, it is engaging for all K-6 students. Introducing scientific concepts in the context of history, the days of creation are used as a structure through which a wide variety of scientific topics are introduced, including; light, energy conservation, air & water, botany, the solar system, zoology, and some aspects of human anatomy and physiology.
The text for this class does not need to be purchased. The class is intended to be an exciting no-pressure learning experience; therefore, it has no homework and no required curriculum. If you would like to supplement at home, there are notebooks for purchase online that correspond to the textbook I am using. However, we will not cover the entire text this year at SHEEP.

One Time Materials fee: $17
Supply Requirements: none
Course Description: We all experience conflict—at every age and stage of life. Some of us choose to try to avoid it. Some of us go on the attack, get angry, and explode. Some of us are able to work it out. But what is God’s plan for handling conflict? This is the question we will answer as we seek to become peacemakers. This class is built around the book The Young Peacemaker by Corlette Sande. The Young Peacemaker teaches children how to prevent and resolve conflict in a constructive and biblically faithful manner. We will emphasize the principles of confession, forgiveness, communication, and character development. Some of the questions we will answer include: What is at the heart of conflict? Is it possible to honor God in conflict? How can you take responsibility for your part in a conflict? How can we mend relationships after conflict?
The goal in this class will be for your children to learn to better understand conflict, to respond to conflict in a biblical, God honoring way, and to learn practical ways to prevent conflict. There will be opportunities for scripture memorization, writing and acting out skits dealing with specific conflict situations, fun games and activities with real life applications, and thoughtful discussion. Let’s learn how to be peacemakers! “If it is possible, as far as it depends on you, live at peace with everyone.” –Romans 12:18
There is no textbook required for this class. The majority of your materials fees cover the cost of reproducing the student activity booklets students will receive with each new lesson. These booklets include a cartoon/comic version of the story from each lesson, diagrams that visually reinforce key points, and activities and personal applications that students can work on at home during the week to further reinforce the lesson.

Course Description: Elementary Musical Theatre will bring theatre to life for our students through the Broadway Kids musical SEUSSICAL KIDS! Beginning with theatre games and getting to know each other, we will begin working on the show starting in October. We will rehearse October, November, January, February and March. We will try to schedule two shows late March or early April. The rest of the school year will be full of fun theatre games and introducing audition techniques. We will rehearse on Thursdays at 10:00-10:50 for the AM class or 11:00-11:50 for the PM class.
We’re thrilled to be working with your kids as we honor the Lord through great theatre! We are also looking forward to meeting everyone. If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to ask.
You MUST get special permission to register for musical theatre classes! Please email Jenny Stauffer at sheepmusicaltheatre@gmail.com for interest and questions. Registration information will be sent privately to those who get a slot. Don’t wait…these classes fill up quickly!
There are now similar local programs available, and we need to emphasize the commitment level required for SHEEP’s year-long performance-based theatre group. Students and parents - whether elementary, junior, intermediate or high school - need to recognize and understand the requirement to refrain from committing to another non-SHEEP full-year performance-based theatre group. This keeps us all from scheduling conflicts in the spring, allows more students to participate in local homeschool theatre groups, and reflects our overall desire to have excellent theatre productions. We encourage each family to pray about participation and follow God’s leading in making this decision. Thank you for understanding. We are happy to answer any questions (sheepmusicaltheatre@gmail.com).
