Category Description for Survey Of Science History & Concepts

Following the suggested schedule in the planner for the Explore Series (180 lessons), students will complete the course in one year, but they only receive ½ credit if done at the high school level (with the exception of Survey of Science, which is one full credit).These are transitioning from Parent Lesson Planners to Teacher Guides.
