countrymum Posted March 2, 2018 Share Posted March 2, 2018 We started science in the beginning early this year and dropped it as it seemed above my 6 and 4 year olds. We just picked it back up again and particularly the 6 year old seems interested. We just are finishing light and he would really like to do plants or animals. Do you think we could do one of those chapters next? I am not sure he will love CH 2. I think the topic of the 1st chapter (light)was some of the trouble earlier this year...

Erica in OR Posted March 2, 2018 Share Posted March 2, 2018 I don't think there's any problem in that curriculum with skipping ahead to other topics. It's a great time to do botany anyway, with spring on the horizon. In the past, I have skipped lessons if I didn't have the materials on hand and didn't want to purchase special supplies, plus not doing a lot of the bonus lessons (the ones with the red-colored headers), or replacing a regular lesson with a bonus lesson instead. I say go for it—mix and match. Erica in OR Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chicagoshannon Posted March 2, 2018 Share Posted March 2, 2018 You can easily do that. We really enjoyed that science year. A caution though, the next book in the series is very dry. We used it but ditched it part way through the year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
