Thanks! I am going to give him the next test and see if he gets and 80%. .

:)

... we're just not ready for the General Science book yet. :) Thanks for the suggestion, I looked at the first chapter on their site. It looks good. I think I've decided to get it and just go through it quicker. The author has a great way of explaining that even adults can appreciate!

My son tested into Saxon 76. If I had given him partial credit on the placement test for answers that were "almost correct," he would have placed in 87. I decided to give him the best foundation and go with 76. (He completed Bob Jones Math 5 last year.) So... by lesson 10 should he have learned anything new? He is B-O-R-E-D right now in math. Yet, I know it's very early in the book. :001_smile:

How do you organize your cards? Do you punch holes in the corner and put them on a metal ring? Do you use a 3-hole punch and put them in small binders? Do you just throw them into a box? :) Does anyone love their organization?

Has anyone started the new "Exploring Creation with Chemistry and Pysics" by Jeannie Fulbright? :001_smile: Thoughts? Would you say it is on the older end of the spectrum for her Elementary science books? (Or, would a 7th grader find it to be too "babyish?")

Thanks!!! :)

Yep, that could work, and it might be the right choice. But truely, my daughter would be miserable. My first choice would be Human Anatomy, but we're stuck because of the Biology requirement.

For various reasons, this is what must happen: 9th - Apologia Physical Science with lab (completed this year) 10th - ???? 11th- Apologia Biology with lab 12th - Apologia Chemisty with lab Can anyone recommend a high school level science that doesn't have a Biology or Chemistry prerequisite? It does not need to have a lab. Thanks so much for any suggestions! :)

Hi, Does anyone know the differenence between the `old & new edition? Would a student attending CC have problems using the 1st edition in class instead of the latest, 2nd edition? Thanks!!

Has anyone gone from Bob Jones 5 to Saxon? What level did you find was the best fit? :) My ds is going into 7th.

Thanks Amy, that is very helpful information!

There are so many options available, it is obvious that we need to cut something. I do appreciate that they gave us plent of materials to use if needed! How do you use everything? :001_smile: Do you use both the Workbook page & Review page? It looks as if new material is covered in workbook and the review from previous topics is in the Reviews. How do you use Teacher's Edition? Do you read through the scripted questions with your student? Or, can we just work through workbook page together and get the same info? Do you use the CD? Thanks for any comments!

Same here. As a matter of fact, that series is my new favorite! :001_smile:

Okay... That's really funny! Thanks for the recommendations. Herbs de Provence is exactly what I'm looking for... there is just nothing else with that same taste. :001_smile: If anyone has other spice blends they love (espcially for chicken or veggies) I'd love to hear!
