Homeschool Enrichment - Frederick Community College
Homeschool Enrichment
Homeschool Enrichment classes provide supplemental instruction to complement at-home schooling efforts. From Applied Physics
and Greek Mythology to Multicultural Arts and World Literature, these courses have a strong reputation among local and regional
homeschool communities. To learn more, please browse our Spring 2014 Homeschool Enrichment programs below.
History
EDP239 Comparative Religion for Teens
The focus of this class is to provide understanding and education
for different religions throughout the world. The history, practices
and in some cases the founding figures of Hinduism, Buddhism,
Islam including Sufism, and Judaism will be explored. Included
will be brief explanations of Taoism, Confucianism, Zoroastrianism,
the Yoruba belief in Africa, and the Pagan Wheel of the Year. By
learning and becoming more comfortable with other religions, we
no longer see people as the “other” and we can treat others the
way we ourselves would like to be treated.

Fine Arts
KOC257 Right Brain Drawing Techniques:
You Can Draw! (ages 13-16)
Some might say the world of myth was ruled by men and that females
were second-class citizens with little to offer a world of heroes and
villains. Suz Thackston, the popular and energetic teacher for this class,
begs to differ. The myths are rich with tales of ordinary girls doing
extraordinary things, bad girls, sad girls, magical girls and demonic girls.
By far the most interesting mythical monsters are female. Come meet
them and learn how women helped to shape the world of the ancients
and lay the foundation for the world we enjoy today.
Take a journey through the line, which is the basis of all drawing.
Learn technical skills and experiment at the same time. We’ll
learn and practice right-brain exercises so you can tap into your
“other half” and stretch your skills. Work in basic materials such as
graphite, colored pencil, ink and paint. Then, combine your learned
skills with new and exciting ways to mix media. You’ll draw from
real life as well as from imaginative ideas you develop yourself.

these great stories helped shape our modern society.

Paint & Hang It Up! (ages 8-12)
Would you like to visit Japan? Would you like to go back in time?
Look no further than this class! Not only do you create a piece
of traditional Japanese art each day, you use these as landmarks
as you travel the road of this fascinating country’s past. Artistic
experiences you encounter on our trip through time: Origami, the
art of paper folding; crafting of a Koi Windsock; Sumi-e, traditional
brush painting; Noh theatre; and paper lantern making!

Literature
EDP244 Lord of the Rings (ages 8-12) NEW
From The Hobbit, to the Lord of the Rings and back to The
Silmarillion, learn about the history of Middle-earth. Form a
fellowship with members of the class as you learn to write and
speak Elvish. Create rings of power, just like the dark lord Saroun,
except with much less malice, cruelty and the will to dominate all
life. Hide from all the dark forces of Middle-earth in craftily created
Lorien cloaks and eat enough rations of Lembas bread to ensure
that you won’t go hungry on the long journey across Middle-earth.

EDP242 Maidens, Muses and Monsters–
Women in Ancient Greek Mythology (ages 9-12)
FCC/E124A
It’s a bird, it’s a plane, it’s a man flying without wing! Is that possible?
Could Spiderman really scramble up the side of a building or would he
need to follow Batman’s lead and use grappling hooks to rise to the top
of a sky scraper? And how does Batman toss a huge hunk of metal that
high in the air? In this “super” cool physics class discover what forces and
motion can reveal about Superman’s strength, what Magneto can teach
about the nature of magnetism and how the super cooling properties
of Iceman can stop an adversary in his tracks. Take a look at the physics
behind the powers of some of the most popular superheroes.
