Fulfilling high school P.E. requirements can be difficult when your teen isn't "sporty" or simply doesn't have time for a rigorous sports schedule. A school year involving nightly practices, weekend soccer games, or early morning swim meets isn't the only way to get that physical education credit.

  • Can Thrive count as a health credit if students already have a PE credit?

    Thrive can count for one full credit, or two ½ credits. This can be divided into a ½ credit for Health and ½ credit for Physical Education. Other elective titles could be Nutrition or Wellness. Consult your state guidelines for specific requirements.

    Thrive lessons are designed to be completed three days per week. However, physical activity is encouraged five days per week to build healthy habits.

  • Are there tests and quizzes for Thrive?

    There is a pre-assessment and post-assessment included in the book.

  • Can Thrive be used for middle school as well?

    Thrive was specifically designed for 9-12th grades. It could potentially be used in 8th grade if your student is earning high school credits.

  • Can Thrive be used in a classroom setting?

    This course would be an excellent choice for a homeschool co-op since it is designed as a homeschool course to be completed three days per week.

  • What guidelines determined the nutrition, food, and exercise segments?

    Thrive defines health and nutrition vocabulary and explains how these fit together for well-balanced health. Some data from the course is pulled from the American Heart Association. Thrive does not suggest or recommend any specific nutrition or exercise plan. We recommend consulting with a nutritionist, a dietician, or a healthcare professional with specific questions and concerns. Students are required to research amounts of vitamins, calories, and nutrients in certain foods and compare them to draw their own conclusions. Students are also encouraged to have regular physical activity.

  • What are the credentials of the Not Consumed team?

    The Not Consumed team exists for one purpose: to help your family grow in faith so you can live #NotConsumed. We are homeschool parents with over 220 years of combined homeschooling experience, advanced degrees in education and curriculum design, and a deep love for serving families well. Every Bible study, family resource, and homeschool curriculum we create is anchored in Scripture and made to be practical, clear, and easy to use, because we know your days are already full.

    We believe the best learning happens when families gather around God's Word together, so we create resources that work across ages and stages to make that time meaningful, approachable, and real.

  • What do you believe?

    I believe that the Bible is the absolute authority in matters of faith and practice. It's 100% true, with no exceptions or figurative sections. I believe in the verbal, plenary inspiration of Scripture; in one God eternally existing in three Persons; in the creation of all things, including man, as the direct act of God; in eternally secure salvation by grace through faith in the shed blood of the Lord Jesus Christ; in the incarnation and virgin birth of Christ, and in His bodily resurrection; in the personal, bodily, premillennial return of the Lord Jesus Christ and His millennial reign on earth.

  • Is the curriculum accredited?

    Though schools can be accredited, there is not an accreditation program for curriculum.
