Science 8 Lifepac - Unit 5 Worktext
Does your student have a lot of energy? Would you like to take his energy and channel it into learning meaningful science lessons—about energy? Alpha Omega Publications has the perfect homeschool curriculum for you: the LIFEPAC General Science II Unit 5 Worktext! This vibrant, entertaining worktext uses captivating, easy-to-follow lessons to teach your homeschool child all about energy. This fifth unit in a series of ten eighth grade science worktexts will teach your student about kinetic energy, potential energy, other forms of energy, energy conversions, and entropy. The worktext uses colorful illustrations, activities, experiments, and exercises so your student won't have a chance to get bored with his work.
The LIFEPAC curriculum uses mastery learning techniques, so your student will really learn his science concepts, never biting off more than he can chew. Plus, this Alpha Omega curriculum isn't big and bulky like a regular textbook. Your child can actually see progress being made and will feel a huge sense of achievement when he finishes the worktext in just three to four weeks. The worktext is affordable and promotes independent learning—making it a great homeschool curriculum choice for the family homeschooling more than one child. The worktext comes complete with 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.
