Apologia General Science Supplements?


Recommended Posts

We are considering doing General Science next year.

 

Has anyone used any of the multimedia supplements? Like the DVDs? If I get the DVDs would the audio book or multimedia supplement be redundant? I'm not sure where/if there is content crossover, and can't really find reviews on the DVDs!

I haven't used any of the supplements, but my 7th grader is doing General Science this year and my 9th grader did it last year and neither found any of them necessary.  They both just read the book, answered the questions, and did the experiments and wrote them up.  The book really is written directly to the student and is pretty clear and my boys have both been able to be almost completely independent with it.  I just make sure I have all the supplies on hand, then give them the tests and grade them when they're ready.

 

I can see where DVDs or audio book option would be good for a more visual/auditory learner who doesn't get as much out of reading a text, but I would imagine they would be redundant used together.  Just my 2 cents!
