Through this series, students will consider the complex dynamics of power: how it is gained, challenged, and wielded for both good and ill.\r\n\r\nEach story in this series follows characters navigating power in unique ways\u2014whether by discovering unexpected abilities and using them to protect others, grappling with the tension between leadership and oppression, or recognizing the profound influence of language and storytelling. The thematic core encourages students to examine how power can be used to unite or divide, to inspire or control, and how it evolves in different contexts over time.\r\n\r\n\u201cThe Power We Hold\u201d challenges students to reflect on the forces that shape their own lives and communities, encouraging them to consider how they can harness their unique strengths, voices, and influence to bring about meaningful change.\r\n\r\nHearth & Story Writing, Level 7\u20138\r\nThis course builds on the foundation laid in previous Hearth & Story writing courses, offering students a deeper dive into crafting powerful, structured essays and research papers.

If you already have a set from fifth or sixth grade, you will not need to print them again.\r\n\r\nOn the Wilde Side\r\nOur Level 7\u20138 short story series features three beloved tales by Oscar Wilde\u2014\"The Model Millionaire,\u201d \u201cThe Devoted Friend,\u201d and \u201cThe Remarkable Rocket.\u201d These units include the full text of each story, along with clever questions, creative writing prompts, and fun activities that bring Wilde\u2019s humor and insights to life. Students are encouraged to make connections, unravel Wilde\u2019s sharp wit, and reflect on the timeless lessons woven into his stories. Crafted to inspire curiosity and critical thinking, this unit turns classic literature into a delightful homeschool experience.
