Quick background: DS is 6.5, and I just withdrew him from pubic school, where he was in the 1st grade. He did very little science in that school. He is gifted, as well as has some sensory processing issues.
My issue(s):
- He LOVES science. Totally eats it up.
- We are on a TIGHT budget.
- For now, we are using library books and learning about each type of animal (Amphibians, Birds, Mammals, Fish, etc)
- We also watch YouTube videos and shows on various channels. We also use various books with experiments.
- I am willing to continue to piece together stuff for him, but I am worried it won't be enough.
I have looked at Noeo and I feel like I could do a similar job, so why bother buying it?
I have looked at RSO. I LOVE their worksheets, but I don't love the "textbook". I also think the science isn't enough for him.
I have looked at Elemental Science and I like the program, but I don't love the artwork on the worksheets. Petty, I know!!!
So. Any advice? Continue piecing together? Is there something else I should check out?
