Halcyon Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 I am considering this as a supplement for my 6th grader. Has anyone used this? https://www.homeschoolbuyersco-op.org/science-bits/?c=1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alte Veste Academy Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 Wow! The price is right! I could never use something virtual for my main science program (the kids like real life "fizz" too much, LOL), but for the price, if your DS likes and retains virtual learning, I think it looks like a fun supplement.

SweetandSimple Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 It looks impressive... but did you click on the topic list? I was disappointed that there was very little earth science there, which is what we want to study next. It sounds as if they are continually adding to it, though...

mama27 Posted January 30, 2014 Share Posted January 30, 2014 I signed up for the 2 week free trial and just from what I've seen this am I VERY impressed. And VERY tempted! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Halcyon Posted January 30, 2014 Author Share Posted January 30, 2014 I am with you Tammy. I really like it so far, though we've only tried it today. I particularly like the virtual experiments--we did a Physics one that required a lot of thinking and understanding from DS11. We will keep using it for the trial and make a decision then.

Halcyon Posted January 30, 2014 Author Share Posted January 30, 2014 Well shoot, just when I was about to buy Uzzingo. Ha! Me too. I like the looks of Science Bits more, I think. Wait. Now I should go back and look at Uzzingo again, just to make sure. :coolgleamA: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alte Veste Academy Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 I don't know. I wasn't impressed with the breadth of Uzzingo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mama27 Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 Well shoot, just when I was about to buy Uzzingo. I tried that and it kept freezing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
