KerriF Posted March 27, 2009 Share Posted March 27, 2009 I am looking at NOEO for physics next year and I will have a 4th grader and 1st grader. I'm not wild about buying two levels and yet if I need to do that I am open to it. If I combine them I'm not sure if I shoud go up to physics II and then find books for my 1st grader on the topics studied or if I should bump down and do physics I. Any suggestions or BTDT? TIA:D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tree House Academy Posted March 27, 2009 Share Posted March 27, 2009 My 4th grader did NOEO Physics I this year and it is right on his level. However, he is an average reader and doesn't LOVE to write. The levels of NOEO are based on the child's reading comprehension level more than anything else. I would never suggest doing a level II NOEO with a child younger than 4th grade. I would, personally, go with Physics I and if your older needs "more" then check out books that go more in depth from the library. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whitestavern Posted March 27, 2009 Share Posted March 27, 2009 I have a pretty bright DD8 (3rd grade) and we did level I Chemistry. While a lot of it was able to be absorbed by my DS6 (especially the experiments), it was not too easy for DD either. I would do level I.

Ali in OR Posted March 27, 2009 Share Posted March 27, 2009 We're finishing up Physics I with a 3rd grader and K'er, and we've done Chem I and Bio I too. I think either Physics I or Chem I are fine for 4th grade. Bio I seems "younger" to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
