Girl Power Posted September 10, 2012 Share Posted September 10, 2012 I would LOVE something like TOG for science, that can keep us on the same topic but at different levels. I have a first, third, and sixth grader. Thanks! Beck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
momto2Cs Posted September 10, 2012 Share Posted September 10, 2012 I'm pretty sure it is NOT like TOG, but Building Foundations of Scientific Understanding is very widely adaptable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edeemarie Posted September 10, 2012 Share Posted September 10, 2012 If you are willing to do some of the work yourself you can get something like Science Scope- it guides you in what needs to be taught in each level. I just received it today so I can't comment too much more about it but it looks like it will be great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also the logic stage science comes with reading plans for younger children in the appendix. :001_smile: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woolybear Posted September 10, 2012 Share Posted September 10, 2012 Although some people will disagree, I think Real Science Odyssey can be used by a broader age range than the company states. For the first grader, I probably wouldn't have them do any writing (maybe draw a picture). I would use it as is for the third grader and add in extra reading and notebooking for the sixth grader. I would say maybe skip Life, but Chemistry and Earth and Space would work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It works really well for us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FairProspects Posted September 10, 2012 Share Posted September 10, 2012 I think the Intellego science units can be used very easily like this. There are writing prompts for most activities which could be expanded or condensed based on ability, and most topics include a video or website that can be explored to varying depths.
