bethben Posted August 1, 2020 Share Posted August 1, 2020 Does the solutions guide contain the answers to the study guide? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
staceyobu Posted August 4, 2020 Share Posted August 4, 2020 It only includes answers for the study guide (which is in the student notebook) and the test. Not the rest of the general notebook pages. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pitterpatter Posted August 5, 2020 Share Posted August 5, 2020 The study guide questions are in both the textbook and the student notebook. The answers are in the solutions manual. The answers to the "On Your Own" questions in the student notebook are in the textbook. I wish all the answers were in one place, or in separate booklets.

pitterpatter Posted August 5, 2020 Share Posted August 5, 2020 Is he using it as scheduled? Did you buy the video lessons? If so, does he watch them before or after reading the text/completing the notebook? On 8/3/2020 at 9:26 PM, Paradox5 said: I will check for you in the morning. Son 4 is loving it!

pitterpatter Posted August 6, 2020 Share Posted August 6, 2020 We haven't started back to school yet, but I listened to the audiobook and read along with the text for the first lesson yesterday. I also watched the videos for it. This was only the first lesson, but so far the videos primarily seem to be a regurgitation of the text, which I'm okay with. This way DD will be getting the information twice in two formats. (Although, watching the videos does take up more time.) Our schedule is tight this year. I was really hoping the program would only take four days a week as stated, but I think it could easily expand to five days and beyond with the experiments and lab sheets. We have an hour a day in our schedule for it and I just don't think DD could do reading, the notebook, a lab, and lab report all in one day and still come in under an hour. We're going to attempt it as scheduled, but I can already see some labs that we'll just watch the videos for because we've completed or attempted similar labs in the past. For example, we won't be destroying a heavy book by dropping it repeatedly. We also won't be attempting the sundial. We've tried creating sundials in past science programs and it's always fall/winter/cloudy/rainy when the experiment rolls around. We're over it. Lol. PS - I'll try to remember to pop back in and report more about the video lessons after viewing more of them. 10 hours ago, Paradox5 said: I'm so sorry I didn't get back to the OP. I'm glad someone else stepped up. We are using it as scheduled without experiments for now. When work slows a bit, dh will do them with Son 4 all at one time. He often does 2 days in a day because he really likes it. We aren't using the videos. We are burned out from BJU dlo videos last year. I am considering them for Physical Science next semester. I would love feedback on them from someone who has used them, though. Does she only set up the experiments/demonstrations or do them? Is she just regurgitating the text ala BJU or is she adding to the lessons? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
