Such a fun, group course!!
Review byMackenzie
I did this Palentology course with my 6th, 4th, and 2nd grader all 3 together! I first thought only the boys would be interested but my daughter wanted to join in too. There is so much good information and evidence about dinosaurs lining up with the Bible.. Also lots of fun projects and experiments. My kids LOVED doing the Garden of Eden project, and even my Kindergartener insisted we allow her to make one too! It's been a very fun year for everyone and I am glad we took a break from our typical Science courses to do this fun class together as a family.

This teacher's guide is a perfect connection between the texts and the activities that are related to the books. The student reads the information and then completes the assignment.

Inspired a love of biblical science!
Review byCandis
My daughter loved this course. There are easy but fun hands on projects, nothing too complicated but tons of fun. She's learned more about the Old Testament and Creation than ever before. What I love most about this course is the way my daughter has begun to challenge popular beliefs about the timeline of creation and evolution.

Very informative and engaging
Review byAmanda
We have just completed this course and my daughter really enjoyed it. We had already purchased a science course, but she saw that this was a new course was being offered and wanted to add it to our classes for this year since she loves dinosaurs. I was pleased with the detail of the information being presented and the layout of the worksheets. I liked that there were some activities included to add variety. I was surprised at how much I learned as well , just by going through the course with my daughter. I would definitely recommend this course to others.

Paleontology
Review byWendy
I think this has been our very FAVORITE curriculum yet. We've even taken the time to watch Ken Ham's debate with Bill Nye! How fun! These stories are wonderful! I am new to Master Books so I didn't realize I am best to have a Teacher's Guide for each child. It's much cheaper to order books than to make copies for each child. I do only have two children but I was copying a lot so my husband and I ordered teachers guides on all of our curriculum so my kids could both have their own. So we did essentially order a set but then we added another TG to a later order. Best thing ever! The books are affordable enough to simply get each child their own. I love how I can teach both children 3rd/4th grades the same lesson. Then my kids can talk together about the lesson. It can be a lot of writing for a 3rd grade boy but when he seems overwhelmed I write for him and his creativity and answers flow.

Great Resource
Review byAngela
My son, 6th grade loves the workbook. I think that the worksheets are geared well for his age group. There are some worksheets that are more geared for the 4th-grade students which I think that they will absolutely love. I think that if you take time to pick and choose based on your child this will be a great resource.
