Thank you! This was very helpful, as always. I have a question: do you also do some of the other activities listed in the last section ("Questions/Discussion/Activities...")? I'm always confused how do these. Is the science journal entry enough as review? I'm still in Volume 1, if that matters.
We really just do the science notebook, and it's been enough so far. I'll occasionally do one of the other activities if my kids are really into the topic and it's easy to set up & clean up. A lot of the activities in that section seem like they'd be easiest to do in a classroom setting, imo. The lessons farther into Volume 1 and the lessons in the next 2 volumes continue to refer back to previous lessons, so the topics are reinforced that way as well.
Thank you so much for doing this video! It was so helpful to see how you plan out your lesson. 😊
So glad you found it helpful. Thanks for watching!

Thank you! That is good to know and helps me to focus. I think I'm making it way more complicated than it needs to be. Done is better than perfect!
