Complete Studies of Logical Fallacies
 
Rationale: 
 
1)  ENGLISH - The twins tested into College-level English 100 when they were ten years old.  With this College English course, they'll get a thorough background on the history of English literature, and learn techniques for the composition of essays, narratives, reports, poetry, songwriting, and drama.
 
2)  MATH -  Having completed Algebra II, they've met the pre-requisites for the College-level Statistics course.   Given the choice between high school Trigonometry/Pre-calculus (which mom knows nothing about) or college-level Statistics (which mom does know), we think college-level Statistics is the better choice.
 
3)  SCIENCE - Physics  (prep for AP test)
 
4)  SOCIAL SCIENCE - Economics (micro and macro -prep for AP test)
 
5)  PHYSICAL EDUCATION - Dance training  $400
 
The twins are on the high school swimming and diving team, and are very physically active in other sports.
