heidip2p Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 We are using Apologia Zoo 1 right now. I would like to roate it our with something else for variety. I have Apologia General Science on hand. Could I do them both together just trading off MWF-T TH? Or should I look for something else? I am looking for something we can all do together. Our kids are 7th, 5th, 3rd, 1st and K. What about using unit studies along with Zoo1? Science has been neglected here for awhile. I would love to do a unit on weather, life cycles and really hit the basics. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Superfly Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 Have you checked out Christian Kids Explore series? I love Apologia, but also wanted to keep the WTM science cycles. So we will be using CKE Chemistry with Zoology 1 in the fall. The CKE is broken into small parts that I think are suitable for 1 or 2 days a week. The experiments use mostly common household items. The series says it is made for older elementary/middleschool, but IMO can be used with kids as young as five. If it were my only science I would add on extra reading for older kids, but since you are already doing Apologia I think it would be a nice, light addition.

Might be exactly what we need. :) Thank you so much Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
