Sew happily ever after Posted October 25, 2012 Share Posted October 25, 2012 I know it says grade 4 or 5, but I'm wondering if it could work for a grade 3 9yo science minded boy? I figure I might hafta write some for him but also want to be sure the topics are understandable for him. We will also be using BF science thru history to round out the science intensive year!

Esse Quam Videri Posted October 25, 2012 Share Posted October 25, 2012 (edited) This may not help, but we are using Elemental Science Earth and Astromony this year. It says 2nd and 3rd, but I find it VERY easy... my first grader has no issues whatsoever. I do write some of his narrations, but the quizzes and reading are really dumbed down. If the upper levels are the same way, you should be fine. Okay, I actually just noticed that you use it too :-) Should've checked before posting Edited October 25, 2012 by mofbethany Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sew happily ever after Posted October 25, 2012 Author Share Posted October 25, 2012 That was my thought too--the ESA is very simple (but I like it that way=it gets done!) I'm assuming hat the other levels are similar as far as ease--maybe require more writing which would be the part he would need help with. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Esse Quam Videri Posted October 25, 2012 Share Posted October 25, 2012 Exactly! I'm wondering what to go with next year because we really want to do physics, but we would have 4, 2, and K. We do like ES a lot though! It gets done, they are retaining it, and we love the 2 day option. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoVanGogh Posted October 25, 2012 Share Posted October 25, 2012 We started it when my DS was a young age 9. He is very science minded and didn't have any problems with the material or quizzes. I did do his writing for him, but he has fine motor control issues so I often write out his answers. I will say - I stunk at getting the experiments done. :tongue_smilie: But we loved the program!
