HOMESCHOOL Literature Prep, Reading, 100-List, Future HS Courses

In this video I discuss my views on reading and my goal for my daughter to read 100 classics before she launches from homeschool and becomes an adult. I am in the beginnings of developing the list -- which will certainly change over time. I show you how I am tracking the classics we do read by year and how this research has spurred me to begin developing high school courses. I plan to teach as many of the high school courses as I can so I feel the pressure to be prepared and develop strong, fun, enriching courses that will get my daughter where she wants and needs to go upon graduation from The Patterson Homeschool Academy.

*** For those of you who want a copy of my list-in-progress, I'm adding it here as a PDF:
