INTRODUCTION
Questions abound as life in Maine, New York City, and Germany intertwine!

While Tom Timothy and his grandfather confront wild animals on land and shore, the evils of World War II threaten the boy's family and future. The dangers of war at home and in Europe raise questions about eternity, free will, and God's providence.

The Book of Questions explores fundamental questions that many young people and non-believers of all ages wrestle with. This book lets students vicariously experience extreme situations and adventures.


FLAGSHIP COURSE #2
Foundational Mastery at the 7th Grade Level

Foundational Mastery Emphasis

Boyo 2 opens Discern Academy's 7th Grade Mastery Program. This book offers numerous avenues for learning, from Christian themes to grammar essentials to solid vocabulary acquisition to reading and writing competency to higher levels of critical thinking, and ultimately, to a foundation for Godly wisdom and discernment.

At Discern Academy, each Flagship course (the first work taught at each grade level) includes the complete curriculum for the year. Initial lectures and focused activities cover the entire Mastery Spectrum

Each grade level will have a "Flagship" book that embodies the entire Mastery Spectrum. In the Flagship course, students will be taught the key concepts. All other works at that grade level will practice, revisit, and further reinforce these key concepts. With the Doc H Approach, achieving the Mastery Spectrum is a very realistic goal.
