TheAutumnOak Posted December 13, 2010 Share Posted December 13, 2010 All of you Elemental Science users... I just bought the download and see that there is a 2 day option and a 5 day option...Which one do you do?...The 2 day seems to cover a lot of info at one time, but I don't know if it is realistic to plan for 5 days a week...Wondered what others do...

debbielong Posted December 13, 2010 Share Posted December 13, 2010 I have the five-day, and we just do as much as we can each day. We generally do science for about 30 minutes, three or four days per week. We started in September and we will be done by the end of May. We never do school five days a week. (I only have one child at home, though:)) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Halcyon Posted December 13, 2010 Share Posted December 13, 2010 We do the 2 day a week option, and sometimes do the experiment on a 3rd day. Five days feels too spread out for us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pata Posted December 13, 2010 Share Posted December 13, 2010 We usually do science 5 days a week because my dd does better with shorter more frequent lessons. However, we do take advantage of the 2 day schedule on weeks that we are busy and can't get 5 days in. You could always try one and see how it goes and then switch if you need to. The 2 day and 5 day schedule cover the same information each week, so it's possible to switch back and forth. Hope that helps! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
violinmom Posted December 14, 2010 Share Posted December 14, 2010 In the past we have always done science on 2 days. This year, we are doing it 5 days and love it. It isn't as overwhelming to try to get everything done in the 2 days. Plus, if we need to make up a little bit, it's easy to do on another day.
