Apologia Homeschool Science Curriculum Review
Considering using Apologia homeschool science curriculum in your home school? Lara from MI shares some great insight and tips...We have been using Apologia Exploring Creation Series for three years, and we plan to use the entire series.
The elementary books are fun and complete. The course uses a notebooking approach, which makes it fun interaction for the kids. There is a course website with templates you can print for your notebooks. All learning styles can do well with this curriculum, and it adapts well for multiple ages.
The junior/high school level is very complete. The text is well written, so the students can read it on their own. There are study questions to answer through out each module, a summary to complete at the end, and a test. By the time the student gets to the test, he should know the material well.
We have used the templates from Live 'N' Learn Press for the notebooking. Each question is a fun booklet, and all the booklets are pasted onto cardstock which is inserted into a 3-ring binder. At the end of the year, they have a notebook that is very interesting to go back through.
I highly recommend the Exploring Creation Series by Apologia.
