Open a whole new world of learning science for your child! How? Use the amazing and entertaining Switched-On Schoolhouse 5th Grade Science from Alpha Omega Publications. This interactive homeschool curriculum is designed to capture your student's attention! Filled with exciting animation and multimedia tools, Switched-On Schoolhouse lessons are uniquely created to give your student an interactive learning experience. Plus, you can enjoy all the wonderful benefits of a computer-based curriculum—automatic grading and lesson planning.
No more boring, dry science lessons here! With video clips and learning games, your child will actually enjoy learning about cell structure, flowers, food chains, chemical energy, and more. And with diverse question formats—like fill-in-the-blank, multiple choice, and essay—you can be assured your child is receiving solid concept reinforcement. Science projects and experiments are also included for a well-rounded study. Diverse and colorful, this must-have Alpha Omega curriculum includes a fun unit-study of rocks and how they record history.
LIFEPAC worktexts provide a complete, year-long science curriculum for each grade. From a Christian publisher, the approach is systematic mastery learning. It's very easy to teach from, with no need to write out lesson plans or prepare materials. You will have to gather equipment and materials for science experiments, however. Each grade contains 10 small consumable worktexts which the students progress through at their own pace. Each unit includes vocabulary, text, and comprehension questions to assure students retain the material. The science series is more activity-oriented than AOP's other subject LIFEPACs, with plenty of experiments to help illustrate science concepts. Grades 1-10 worktexts contain colorful illustrations; grades 11-12 are only available in black and white. Complete Boxed Sets also include a Teacher's Guide with teaching tips and answer keys. Sets of LIFEPACS only (no Teacher's Guides) are also available at each level for additional students.
