Publisher Description:

How is nuclear energy produced? Can bacterial and viral infections be prevented? Does your teen ask questions like these? If so, give LIFEPAC Science homeschool curriculum from Alpha Omega Publications a try! Ten full-color, engaging worktexts present lessons created to encourage independent study and critical thinking. In the LIFEPAC General Science III Set, your homeschooling child will focus on the study of body health, the atomic world, geology, astronomy, oceanography, and ecology. Diverse topics in this Alpha Omega curriculum include radioactivity, matter, weathering and erosion, fossils, bacterial and viral infections, constellations, space exploration, geology of the ocean, ecology, and much more!

To make your job easier—and more enjoyable, an essential teacher's guide is available which consists of general teaching resources, detailed teaching notes, answer keys, alternate tests, and a list of equipment needed for experiments. Plenty of additional learning resources and activities designed to encourage individualization of the program are also included for your convenience. In addition, student worktexts include daily instruction, review questions, and opportunities for regular assessment.

The 9th Grade Science Experiments DVD is a recommended resource not included in this set.

Category Description for LIFEPAC Science:

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 worktexts which the students progress through at their own pace. Each unit studied 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. The Complete boxed sets also include a Teacher's Guide with teaching tips and answer keys.

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.

We decided to try a different science program this year. After reviewing several options, we decided to try Lifepac.

How would you apply a science credit for this class, Life, Physical, or Integrated Science?
User on May 14, 2018
BEST ANSWER: This course - General Science III - covers: Our Atomic World; Volume, Mass, & Density; Physical Geology; Historical Geology; Body Health I; Body Health II; Astronomy; Oceanography; Science & Tomorrow; and Scientific Applications.

Of the three options you mention, it would be an Integrated Science course.

Not at all student directed
I bought this hoping to give an overview of several types of science for my 9th grade students. I bought this thinking that I would be there to support and direct. In fact, I have to spend hours every unit finding additional resources and videos to help explain the concepts. The text is incredibly dry and basically just lists facts. The amount of detail in each section is way too much for a high school class. I am seriously upset that I didn't continue with Apologia.
