Larissa Posted April 3, 2009 Share Posted April 3, 2009 What can others recommend for elementary-level science at a co-op? We did Noeo at home, and loved it for the books and complete experiments, but I don't think that would work in co-op unless everyone bought the young explorer kits and books (Not likely to happen). The class is currently doing apologia, zoology 3, but it really lacks hands-on activities. So the class is just reading a chapter and reviewing it each week. What have other people used?

Lisa in the UP of MI Posted April 3, 2009 Share Posted April 3, 2009 I don't have any experience with co-ops but I think BFSU would work well in a group setting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larissa Posted April 3, 2009 Author Share Posted April 3, 2009 I thought I was familiar with all the abbreviations--but you stumped me! Larissa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonnia Posted April 3, 2009 Share Posted April 3, 2009 We're just getting started at home with the REAL Science Odyssey from Pandia Press. There are handouts for notebooking-type work and plenty of hands-on activities with easily-obtainable supplies. It looks like something very workable for co-op setting. AND it's really been fun so far! http://www.pandiapress.com/real_science.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chiguirre Posted April 3, 2009 Share Posted April 3, 2009 Our coop uses Lentil Science from Tops. Ds loves it and it's all hands on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
