Shoes+Ships+SealingWax Posted May 17, 2016 Share Posted May 17, 2016 I have seen a lot of people recommend these & am intrigued by some of their topics... but find the previews underwhelming. Has anyone actually USED them?? Are they nothing more than KWL charts & websites / YT videos, or is there more substance that the previews just don't show? I am particularly interested in Maps!, Continents & Cultures, World Geography, Habitats, & Evolution Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluedarling Posted May 17, 2016 Share Posted May 17, 2016 We tried them. They weren't bad. There were KWL charts that we skipped, but my kids especially appreciated the videos. They liked it fine, but I didn't feel like they had enough work to prove to me they had learned it. I really liked that it was unit studies I didn't have to plan, but I needed a way to get a feel for what they had accomplished, since I wasn't watching them the whole time. They might work well for a child you could trust to work diligently, or if you were working alongside. My kids breezed through it really fast (and I wasn't altogether sure they'd read/done everything.) There was substance if the kids read all the links, and all. (I suspect mine clicked on all the links but didn't really read them.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
