This class was very interesting and hands on.
Review by Heather
I'm always thankful for the teachers manual which helps me stay on track and makes it easy to just open up our books and learn
Great hands on class
Review by Heather
My son and my younger kids had fun with the hands on experiments in this class. We all learned so much about how great God's design is.
Very Interesting
Review by Angela
This has been a great course for my son. He is using this along with the Masterbooks Academy. This curriculum has opened up his eyes to the invention as well as pointing back to God has the great designer. Highly recommend.
My 8th Grader Loved this!
Review by Sarah
I did a short review of this after purchasing but I thought I would get on here and give you my thouhts after we finished. We just finished this week and I have to say that My 8th grader Loved this course. He learned so many interesting things and it just flowed so well with the style of learner he is. I never had to hound him to get it done, it was the one consistant course that he completed each day this year and usually the 1st thing he chose to do because he loved it so much. It is just layed out really well and there is no question what he needed to do next. He mostly completed this by himself, very rarely did he come to me for assistance. I did make sure he had the needed supplies ready to go each week for experiments. I also purchased the Academy Videos, and although I found them very complementory to the course, he did not want to watch them. He felt like they were a waste of his time and he felt he could have the same learning experience and get all he needed from the text and worksheets. He was able to take all of the quizes and test with no problems and did very well on them as well. This is the first course since we started homeschooling that he has really stuck with all year and done really well in, and it's really sparked his interest in science. He has already picked out his science course for next year and I'm excited to say it is also a Masterbooks course. We really loved using this course, it was just perfect for my son!!!
Good for the most part...
Review by Ashley
We're about half way through. My son loves the course, and the kinds of questions on the workbook pages are just what he needs. My only issue is that by the schedule, it wasn't clear how to use on of the books in the set. I dug and dug, and still couldn't find anything about Men of Science, Men of God in the schedule. I finally found in the instructions to the parents in one small place that they are to pick one of the men from the book to write a paper about. That's it. That seems a waste to me. I think it should have had the entire book scheduled into the course. If it is just one page to read, I would have just had my kid Google the info, and saved the money on that book.
I want to do this corse myself!
Review by Sarah
This looks great! I purchased this for my soon to be 8th grader and I've read through a portion of it and I'm so impressed. I am really considering setting down and doing it myself, just because I want to learn about all of this too. I can't wait to get him started, he's going to love it!
Awesome
Review by Tiffiny
Was her favorite subject and said she would do it for fun.
Simple, strong, and exciting
Review by Kari
My 7th grader loved this course. He finds the simple short lessons exciting and he is spilling out the facts he is learning to anyone who will listen. The only reason I can't give this program 5 stars is due to the fact, I need to sit with him. Maybe it is just my son, but I find this program if more effective if I am working side by side with him. I would like to see other style questions besides short answers, though my son is working through his dislike in writing and part of that is in thanks to this program.
Good teacher's guide
Review by Rachel
This makes it easy to keep track of your child's learning. I bought the ebook and just printed it off so I can use it for multiple students because this curriculum is so interesting, I know my other kids will enjoy it as well.
Great to use with the Applied Engineering books
Review by Toni
The schedule in the front is easy to follow and very helpful. The worksheets are not too much or too little. It was just right.
