SciQuest 200: Addy’s Adventure Instructor Guide gives parents what they need to successfully teach matter, solutions and reactions, and forces and motion. The Quick Start Guide explains the course and gives an overview of the student’s week: Read a chapter in Route 66 Sticky Note Quest, do the weekly experiments, and complete the written activities in the Lab Journal. The Instructor Guide also provides two scheduling options, teacher notes with discussion questions, and useful information to help parents through the one-semester study. Required lab supplies are household or commonly found items. A microscope (40-400x) is suggested, or optionally, a quality magnifying glass. You will also need at least one quality science encyclopedia. The author recommends the Usborne Science Encyclopedia, Kingfisher Science Encyclopedia, Usborne Illustrated Dictionary of Science, and Everything You Need to Ace Science in One Big Fat Notebook. This is an exciting new series for middle school from the authors of the Sassafras Twins elementary science curriculum. I eagerly await the upcoming titles that will cover chemistry and physics, as well as expand on topics in Biology, Life Science, and Earth Science. The planned scope and sequence includes the study of Biology and Earth Science in the Odd Level Numbers (100, 300, 500, and 700) with a study of Chemistry and Physics in the Even Level Numbers (200, 400, 600, and 800).
