Science 8 Lifepac - Unit 8 Worktext
Is your homeschool student ready to learn more about machines? Do you need a tool that will make teaching this and other important science concepts easy? Alpha Omega Publications has just the tool to help you out—the LIFEPAC General Science II Unit 8 Worktext! This colorful, easy-to-follow worktext will teach your student the remaining machine-related concepts not covered in the Unit 7 Worktext. This eighth unit in a series of ten science worktexts will give your student lessons in friction, levers, wheels, axles, and inclined planes. Lessons are reinforced with a variety of activities, experiments, exercises, and colorful illustrations to help solidify learning.
The LIFEPAC curriculum uses mastery learning techniques, so your student will learn material concept-by-concept, ensuring that he understands each principle along the way. What's more, your student can use the easy-to-understand lessons to set his own pace and work independently, giving you a chance to get things done and your child a chance to build self discipline. Unlike a regular oversized science textbook, your student will complete the compact worktext in just three to four weeks. This Alpha Omega curriculum includes reviews, several self tests, and one removable teacher-administered test.
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.

Alpha Omega is in the process of updating the covers on the LIFEPACs. It is only a cosmetic change; the LIFEPAC content has not been modified. While they are transitioning to the new covers, please be aware that you may receive a mix of LIFEPACS with old and new covers in a set.
