  • Book: And Then There Were None by Agatha Christie

  • Movies: Glass Onion (2022), Murder on the Orient Express (2017)

I love a mystery, and Agatha Christie's And Then There Were None is a mystery classic for a reason. It's a book that launched a thousand tropes, but it's also a fascinating look at England on the brink of World War II. This is a society that's both reinventing and resisting the reinvention of its own ideas about class, gender, and race. It's a society that's been driven to existential crisis by the horrors of war but not yet confronted its role in the horrors of imperialism. In other words, there's a lot going on! And we'll talk about it all.

This is part of the Mystery Literature full-year curriculum.

Placement recommendation: This is a high school level unit, designed for students who are already familiar with the basic elements of literature (plot, character, theme, setting, etc.) and who are comfortable applying those skills to texts. Like most high school level curricula, it includes works that could be rated M for Mature. If mature content is a concern for you with your student, I encourage you to preview texts to asses your personal comfort level. (I read these texts with my own high school student and teach them in high school classes, but comfort levels can be very personal things.) This is a completely secular program.

For secular homeschoolers who want a fun, decolonized, rigorous way to homeschool high school and middle school, home/school/life’s Deep Thought is the progressive high school curriculum that does the academic heavy lifting so that you can enjoy the fun stuff. Unlike other high school curriculum, home/school/life’s Deep Thought curriculum teaches students how to learn, not just what to learn and makes big academics surprisingly fun for the whole family.

All curriculum materials are digital and downloadable. Because of this, all sales are final. If you have questions, please ask before you buy.

Last week before fall break! We only have two weeks when we get back, so I thought the students would appreciate getting their history final out of the way. There was a little moment of panic (“surprise final!”), but they had a ton of fun
How is the semester almost over!?!

There’s so much stuff happening behind the scenes, as students work on final projects and we start to weave together all the various threads of learning into something that we can’t wait to talk about.
You might want to save this.

I love big, dense, complicated texts that tackle the hard stuff — but sometimes I need something a little gentler, something that reminds me that humans have just as much capacity for goodness as for evil.
