TOS Review: Science Weekly

Science Weekly is a Newsletter
that promotes learning science topics
in a fun, hands-on, multi-subject kind of way...

This program is for kiddos in K-6th grade,
which is really wonderful for families who are homeschooling
multiple ages.

************************************************

For this review, I received...

...all six levels...

...on the unit about Composting.

I would like to take you though this unit
by comparing
Level Pre-A (for Kindergarteners)
and
Level E (for 6th graders)
so you can see how this program could work
for your family....

On the left is the Level Pre-A Newsletter, and on the right
is the Level E Newsletter.

Each of the levels contain the same activities,
but they adjusted appropriately for the
grade level.

The front cover contains information
about the newsletter topic-
you can see that the information for a
Kindergartener is vastly simpler than the
information for the 6th grader.

************************************************

Inside the newsletter are a variety of activities,
including a hands-on lab experiment.

The Kindergarten object...

...just involves creating simple compost...

...while the objective for 6th grade...

...involves more complex procedures.

**************************************************

The newsletter has cross-curricular activities,
including
Language Arts...

(Level Pre-A)

(Level E)

...Math...

(Level Pre-A)

(Level E)

...and a "Challenge" section....

(Level Pre-A)

(Level E)

***************************************************

Included with your subscription is a...

...Teacher's Guide,
so you will have all the answers to the activities,
and a discussion guide to use with your kiddos.

**************************************************

The cost for this product for most Homeschooling families
would be...

(You would receive 15 issues for the year.)

Now, if you are teaching a classroom full,
(like the Duggers)
you could go with the Classroom Rate...

**************************************************

My personal thoughts on this product?

I think it is a good resource to possibly add to
another Science Curriculum,
or be the "springboard" for a more involved study.

I would not forsee our family using this
as our "soul" Science curriculum.
