MIch elle Posted April 1, 2009 Share Posted April 1, 2009 I WISH I could view the table of contents! Is it overly creationist? Any feedback on the gr. 7 text appreciated! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LindaOz Posted April 1, 2009 Share Posted April 1, 2009 I haven't seen the text but I found this list of Grade 7 topics on the Abeka site: plants soil science the human body principles of physical science atmospheric science the weather microscopy classification Creation insects Hope this helps a little.

KrissiK Posted April 1, 2009 Share Posted April 1, 2009 I taught those books in Christian school a while back. I can't remember a ton, but you know that A Beka is unabashedly Christian and they teach science from a young-earth Creationist viewpoint. Now, the whole book isn't about Creationism, but that is the worldview they are working from. I thought the books were good, but I also hold to that viewpoint.

I've used Abeka science k-3. It's a great curriculum. Abeka have samples of their books their site. You can take a look at it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ciyates Posted April 4, 2009 Share Posted April 4, 2009 I love Abeka for everything but their science. I prefer Apologia. My son agrees. :bigear: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LUV2EDU Posted April 4, 2009 Share Posted April 4, 2009 (edited) My son is using Abeka 7th grade Science Order and Reality. It is a very colorful soft textbook. It also covers Creation Vs. Evolution. According to the Abeka site, their science covers half a semester. The other half is for their health curriculum. However, if you choose to only use the science book, you can spread it out over a year. You can choose to do science either twice or three times a week. I used Get Body Smarthttp://www.getbodysmart.com/, Human Gross Anatomyhttp://www.innerbody.com/as a supplement for the Ananomy and Physiology. However, here is a list of others.http://www.kidinfo.com/Health/Human_Body.html Edited April 4, 2009 by LUV2EDU Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
