Also, if anyone has used ES, how hard is it to use the logic and grammar stage together?

Hi there! My school aged kids are in 1,3,5, and 6th grade. I'm trying to find a science curriculum and need some help! I think I'm going to use Elemental Science earth science and astronomy and get the logic and grammar stage, or use Christian Kids Explore Earth and space. Does anyone have any experience with these programs? We used ES Biology 2 years ago and really enjoyed it, but not sure how it compares The other curriculum. Thanks!

Thank you so much for all the recommendations! I just looked Into some of these programs, and I love the History Odyssey!! I've never even heard of it before, so thank you for recommending it! I also love fact that my older 2 can work on it on their own- awesome! As far as science goes, I think I still need to look into something else. My kids have tried lapbooks before, and they're really not into them. Thanks for the suggestions!

We are starting SOTW volume 2 next week. My kids are in k,2,3,5, and 6. I was wondering if anyone else has used SOTW with their 6th grader? Is it enough? What I'm understanding is that I basically have her write a paragraph or more on the topic, do an outline and more reading on her level. Is that all? Will that be enough or am I missing something? Also, what does everyone reccomend for science? We are using Apologia right now, but id rather use WTM reccomendations. How would I fit all the grade levels together to study the same topic, while Making sure my older daughter gets enough?

Does anyone here have any thoughts on MFW? I am trying to plan for the next school year. I will have a K, 2nd, 4th, and 5th grader. I really like the way MFW looks. If I were to go with it, I would purchase the Kindergarten curriculum and Exploring Countries and Cultures. Has anyone done this? Is it too much work throughout the day? I also have 2 younger children, so I want something that my 3 year old could possibly listen in on. Any input would be greatly appreciated! :)

I have 6 children- age 9, 8, 6, 4, 3, and 1. We are all over the place with curriculum. I love apologia for science. My oldest is using Teaching Textbooks for math, my others are using Math Mammoth and Singapore. For grammar and writing, we use FLL, all on different levels. My 6 year old uses AAs and AAR. We use SOTW for history, but am thinking about switching it for something that has bible with it. I think I'm going to look into MFW or something else for history, geography, etc. that has a biblical view. Anyway, I know how challenging it can be schooling children with so many littles running around. If you find something that works well with all age groups, I would love to hear it!
