5LittleMonkeys Posted February 16, 2012 Share Posted February 16, 2012 Is there a schedule for matching up the experiments from IGtHBE to the Biology text (the "Dragonfly" (2002))? Also, would anyone happen to know if the Biology kit from Quality Science Labs will work with IGtHBE? Thank you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheHomeScientist Posted February 16, 2012 Share Posted February 16, 2012 Is there a schedule for matching up the experiments from IGtHBE to the Biology text (the "Dragonfly" (2002))? Also, would anyone happen to know if the Biology kit from Quality Science Labs will work with IGtHBE? Thank you! We're in the process now of putting together a document to correlate the labs from Illustrated Guide to Home Biology Experiments with various biology texts. That will be available by the time the book is published on 22 April. In the book, we recommend the Miller-Levine text and the CK-12 text, so the labs in IGtHBE certainly correlate well with those texts as well as most others. We wrote the book around a kit customized to the labs in the book. Those kits will be available starting late next month. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5LittleMonkeys Posted February 16, 2012 Author Share Posted February 16, 2012 We wrote the book around a kit customized to the labs in the book. Those kits will be available starting late next month. Thank you for responding. I also want to say thank you so much for all your hard work and making the Illustrated Guide free for download. With five children and a limited income it's sometimes hard to get quality, rigorous material at a price that I can justify. Two more questions: Do you happen to know what the cost of the kit your designing will be? Will the document that correlates the labs with other texts be available for free download or will it be included in the purchased hard copy of the guide (or both)? Thanks!

We try very hard to keep our kits as affordable as possible, but we haven't yet costed out the biology kit. Eyeballing it, it should be in about the same range as our chemistry kits, or perhaps a bit higher. The correlation document will be freely downloadable. We almost included it in the book itself, but then we realized that it'd make more sense to separate it so that we could keep it current as new editions of texts were released and so on.

Our co-op is thinking about using Miller-Levine with the Home Biology Experiments for a class next year, is the experiment book synced up with the 2010 edition of Miller-Levine? Thanks for any info!

Thanks for any info! Yes, certainly. The lab sessions in the book coordinate with both Dragonfly and Macaw. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
