Description

Awaken your child's imagination and revive their love of reading with the gripping science fiction novel, 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea. Set in the 1800s, this classic novel follows the narration of Professor Pierre Aronnax and his expedition in search of a dangerous sea monster sited by several nations. After leaving New York and traveling around the tip of South America to the Pacific Ocean, the supposed monster is found and a battle begins to capture it. However, during the fight, the ship is damaged and the Professor and his party are thrown into the sea. Landing on the creature, they discover it is made out of metal and actually the submarine Nautilus, created and commanded by the mysterious Captain Nemo. Quickly captured and brought on board, the professor and his fellow scientists are forced to roam the seas in the secretly-built sub and to remain on board so as not to betray its existence to the world.


Will Professor Aronnax and his associates ever be able to escape? This novel is a required reading, analyzed in the 9th grade LIFEPAC® English I course.

Frequently Asked Questions

How is LIFEPAC taught and how much work should we do every day?

It is student led and mastery based. All lesson instructions are in the student’s books. Teacher guides give additional ideas and cover the theme as well as provide answer keys. Each unit is intended for 18 days. Roughly that works out to 3 pages per day per subject. However, you can decide how long your school year will be and calculate how many pages per day that would amount to.

What is the difference between a 10-set and full-set?

A 10-set is a student workbook set without a teacher’s guide. A full set is the 10-set student workbook set with a teacher’s guide included.

How do I keep my records and who does the grading?

There is an area in the front of your teacher’s guide to place grades, but we also have student record books and cumulative files you can purchase for keeping records. Because LIFEPAC is a curriculum option, the parent oversees the students daily work, grading and record keeping. As the parent, you will need to make sure you are meeting your state board of education’s requirements.

Is LIFEPAC a complete curriculum?

Yes, it provides the five core subjects: Bible, History & Geography, Language Arts, Math, and Science. It also offers many electives for Middle School and High School students.

Are there other families I can connect with who use LIFEPAC?

Absolutely! There are multiple LIFEPAC Facebook groups available for you to join. Find the one that’s right for you and you’ll never feel alone in homeschooling.
