tammi Posted May 2, 2008 Share Posted May 2, 2008 I am looking for a textbook on Earth Science that would be appropriate for a 9th grader or above, basically for highschool credit. Is there one out there? Tammi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gwen in VA Posted May 3, 2008 Share Posted May 3, 2008 BJU has a great earth science course. It is officially an 8th grade course, but it is rigorous enough that I see no reason why it wouldn't be able to be counted as a 9th grade course, especially if you added some extra readings or reports/papers on current issues in earth science. We really like the course -- we tend not to use textbooks, so this is high praise! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gardenschooler Posted May 3, 2008 Share Posted May 3, 2008 We used this for 8th, and it was pretty hefty. I like the idea of using it later, and adding in additional reading and reports. You can look at samples online. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michelle in MO Posted May 3, 2008 Share Posted May 3, 2008 we haven't used it ourselves, but I've heard and read excellent things about it, from a variety of sources. BJU has a very good science curriculum! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
