I was looking for a programme that we can enhance for my rising 7th grader - she picked astronomy for science this year.
This is the only Science Program which teaches the correct scientific method -through observation - forming the mind of the student to think before jump to conclusions.
We have used other curriculum in this series and really like it. Great that it syncs with elementary curriculum if you have children in multiple age brackets.
My son will be using this curriculum as part of his 8th grade science lessons.
