The Award-Winning LIFEPAC Gold Curriculum
Flexible, complete, award winning—these are just some of the words used to describe our paper-based LIFEPAC curriculum available in the core subjects for students in grades 1-8. LIFEPAC stands alone in its teacher-friendly layout and instructional flow and is a complete, 12-year Christian curriculum designed to teach five core subjects (Bible, Language Arts, Math, History & Geography, and Science), plus an array of secondary electives. Composed of consumable textbook/workbook combinations that conveniently combine subject text, exercises, projects, review, and tests, this worktext format is designed for home school parents who want the advantage of extensive, pre-developed curricula with integrated lesson plans.
Mastery Learning
LIFEPAC's full-color, worktext curriculum is based on the principle of mastery learning, in which students truly master the context and skills of one unit before progressing to the next. Different students learn at different speeds, so mastery learning ensures success by allowing each student to move at his or her own speed.
Critical Thinking Skills
Many specific LIFEPAC curriculum activities and questions require students to go beyond simple objective recall, asking them to instead, think analytically and draw conclusions that require a conceptual understanding of the material. More than just recalling facts, your student will grasp concepts through analytical and evaluative thinking skills.

Horizons
For grades Pre-6, the Horizons curriculum is fun-filled and comprehensive with engaging workbooks and hands-on lessons. Creative, colorful lessons establish students in grades K-6 in the fundamentals of math, phonics, reading, spelling, and vocabulary. The Horizons Math and Language Arts courses use spiral learning—quick concept introduction, frequent review, and reinforcement. Uniquely different from LIFEPAC Math, Horizons Math is a quick-paced, teacher-directed format which uses manipulatives and accelerated learning to build mathematical understanding. The Horizons curriculum has the following courses: Phonics & Reading (K-2), Spelling & Vocabulary (1-2), and Math (K-6).

This built-in flexibility has been developed to meet the needs of two different types of preschool programs: activity centered or academically centered.
