gevs4him Posted February 7, 2013 Share Posted February 7, 2013 Yesterday, as we were talking ds said he does not like our health book - Abeka 5 Enjoying Good Health - he finds it boring. This would be his 6th yr.doing Abeka Health and they do tend to repeat, repeat, repeat!! Also, last year I went out of the box and added tons of hands on, computer, lap-book etc. mostly on the human body. I believe we have watched every MSB, Bill NYE, DK eyewitness Khan Academy movie/show. So what to do - would you let him test through each chapter? Skip Health altogether? (It is not required by our state to have health at this age.) Change to something else?? If change please give suggestions (as I am at a loss) Or Is there a good book with activities we could read? (we do science and hist. this way) Thank you, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChicoryChick Posted February 7, 2013 Share Posted February 7, 2013 Personally at this point in time and after 6 years I would skip health for now. I might skim the 7th or 8th grade health for topics not covered, I believe 7th is where they talk about drug useage and have a discussion about that (if you haven't already) otherwise I would just wait until high school.

gevs4him Posted February 7, 2013 Author Share Posted February 7, 2013 ChicoryChick, Thank you for the excellent idea. We have discussed just a bit about drugs, but I feel you are right - ds will be fine with a deeper discussion and maybe we should add a bit on diseases.
