This course is designed to equip students with a strong understanding of the eight parts of speech, grammar and writing skills.
Students are introduced to character-building life principles and vignettes of persons who role model positive life styles. Each lesson and the corresponding activity questions are based on the vignette in a clever approach that ties English grammar skills to real-life situations. Every grammar rule or part of speech is illustrated twice with sentences drawn from the vignette. This technique connects students to the study of English in a practical and engaging manner.
This course consists of 5 text books and 5 activity books along with the Teacher Resource Kit.
The first of a four-level series is built on techniques “borrowed” from four cultures: USA, Eskimo, Greek and Hebrew. Paradigm high school English is available in a seamless program that begins with English I and continues through English IV.
Paradigm high school English is available in a seamless program that begins with English I and continues through English IV. Every grade level (I through IV) focuses on interpretation and development of writing styles. English II: Composition Skills builds on skills learned in English I: Language Skills (ENG I, ninth grade*) by continuing to hone writing skills.
Students read, write and evaluate different genres carefully assigned to expose students to noble ideals and writing techniques that equip students to craft strong sentences and paragraphs, while becoming effective wordsmiths skilled in producing poems, letters, essays, narratives, editorials, articles, speeches, allegories, and research papers. Students gain experience writing pieces that inform, entertain, persuade and challenge. Students learn to address literary concepts such as cause and effect, logic, premises, comparison, and contrasts.

This course is designed for seventh and/or eighth grade students who need a comprehensive study of basic mathematics from simple addition to pre-algebra. The learning approach is based on content mastery facilitated by a combination of practice and reasoning.
Each math concept is explained, defined and illustrated with at least two examples. Activity problems are crafted carefully to move the student from known to unknown material. Students can move through the course and grasp math concepts with very little dependence on teachers. This course provides excellent remedial studies for high school level students or adults who need a refresher course prior to algebra.
This course is a continuation of Basic Math Skills. The style and format are identical in that each math concept is explained, defined and illustrated with at least two examples and activity problems are crafted carefully to move the student from known to unknown material. Students can move through the course and grasp math concepts with very little dependence on teachers.
Content ranges from pre-algebra to introduction to basic algebra concepts. A scientific calculator is required.
This course is also an excellent refresher course for persons who completed eighth grade math, but need to brush up on pre-algebra concepts before enrolling in algebra I or attempting competency exams for certification.
Do you want to encourage a love for science? Does your student love a good mystery story? Then this is the course for you!
The style of Basic Science Mysteries is unique in that each lesson includes segments of adventure similar to episodes of Nancy Drew and The Hardy Boys. Readers follow an engaging narrative and plot that requires application of scientific and positive life principles to solve mysteries. The characters practice moral restraint and personal responsibility to help civic officials reduce crime and upgrade community standards. This narrative approach engages students, drawing them through the course with minimum dependence on teachers.
Designed as a 7th grade science course, this is a complete kit that contains 5 texts, 5 activity books and the Teacher's Resource Kit. Topics include: organisms, fish, simple machines, volcanoes, earthquakes, and much more
Designed as an eighth grade science course, these saddle-stitch texts cover Earth and life sciences, plus studies on the Periodic Table of the Elements and the solar system. Each scientific concept is enhanced by adventure vignettes in which young people help solve community mysteries by applying the scientific method and positive character traits, such as integrity, honesty, commitment, diligence, and kindness.
The narrative, high interest approach of this series engages students so they progress through comprehensive scientific material with clarity and engagement. Students are exposed to scientific evidence which explores traditional and contemporary theories about the origin of life and the formation of our planet and universe. Texts allow the student to evaluate these theories from a scientific perspective. This is the complete course needed for one student.
Topics covered are: cells, fish and other vertebrates, reflection and refraction, Fungi Kingdoms, metric methods and systems
The Principles, Theories & Precepts of Biology consists of six chapters of text and six companion student activity books. This course is designed to satisfy most state requirements for one high school biology transcript credit. Students who complete this course will have a strong foundation for college studies in science and theories about the origin of life. The publisher takes a bold approach by challenging popular theories through use of the scientific method, application of DNA, and recent research to point out strengths and weaknesses of theories.
The product design of the texts and activity books enables students to engage the material with or without oversight by a biology teacher. Lab experiences are not required, but may easily be accomplished by purchasing the Biology Lab Kit.
Topics covered: cell walls and membranes, taxony, DNA, cell structure, chemical reactions, and much more.
