Question: Algebra 2 curriculum?

Does anyone know of any 12 week (or less) courses for algebra 2? I am a 10th grade homeschool student who would like to complete algebra 2 before summer (for one HS credit) because I am trying to open up my 11th grade year because I am a pre-proffesional ballerina and so I will need to dedicate more time to my training. I will be gone all summer to train at summer intensives so I wanted to get an extra credit to complete BEFORE this summer.

I have a pretty strong grasp on algebra 1 and only have a few week left in geometry - I would like to be able to have a curriculum (online or textbook) that has short (NOT time consuming), to-the-point lessons and/or lectures and doesn't have a lot of "busy work" (like if you get the concept you can move on). I only need bare-minimum content, just enough to get the credit. Does anyone know of some homeschool program that would fit my needs? Thanks much!

Answer: We love teachingtextbooks.com. It is cd based, and you can do as many lessons a day as you want. It is designed for a year of home school, but if you move through a couple lessons a day instead of one, you can do it. Check out their website to see samples.

Question: I'm joining online Homeschooling,and I'm getting way too much free time.Help me make a schedule? ?

So,I was thinking:

6-10 am : School
10-11 am : Myspace
11-12 : Guitar Practice
12-2 : World Of Warcraft!
2-6 : Band practice/ hanging out with friends
6-7 :shower/brush teeth,hygiene
7-9 : Internet/Games/Whatever
9- x : George Lopez/Television haha
x-x : Restart (:

Haha,for some reason I can't live without Myspace and World Of Warcraft. I feel pretty lame now that I realized it,you know?
AHHH! I left out eating! :O
exercise is part of 2-6. xD

Answer: I'm having the same issue! I just started Home Schooling and it seems like I have waaay too much free time. For me I've been waking up at like 11 or 12 just because I don't really have anything to wake up early for. The way your schedule is worked out it seems necessary to wake up early so it seems like a good schedule. Ya you should squeeze in a little time for eating and maybe exercise? Though I'm sure you get exercise sometime while playing WoW.
