A Geometry course taught according to Charlotte Mason's principles using the Geometry text by Harold Jacobs.


 

This approach includes the introduction of "captain ideas" from great thinkers or from history to pique the interest of the students and grab their attention.  Through carefully graduated lessons, students are engaged and guided to wonder, explore, and consider concepts on their own.



This course constitutes one high school math credit.**

**Climbing Higher Math teaches students from different states and countries and is not responsible for ensuring every state's standards are met.
