  • UPDATED What You Need To Know About Apologia's Young Explorers Series || Homeschool Science
    Today I’m sharing what you need to know about Apologia’s young explorers series. We are going to talk about which level to start with, how to schedule the curriculum, if I think the journals are worth it, and way more.

    I am so happy when people I know choose to do Apologia because it’s awesome!

    We love Apologia science! I agree that the Young explorers series can be done through middle school. My son has a learning delay so there’s no way he’s ready for their middle school science next year. I also think the notebooking journals can be a lot and they seem advanced for K and 1st grade. My kids do enjoy the mini books 😀

    We do:
    General in 9th
    Physical in 10th
    Biology in 11th
    Chemistry or Anatomy and Physiology for 12th...or both
    In the younger years Rod and Staff is excellent done independently. Apologia is fun as a group or independently. We own both and our children love the simplicity of Rod and Staff, and I enjoy picking a book and taking time teaching the group using Apologia or Considering Gods Creation (qn oldie but goodie).
    We add in Schoolaid Health books for our childrens independent work in 5th on up.

    I am using the younger notebooking journal with my 14 yo special needs kiddo because of all the coloring pages. She loves to color. But the writing lines are the primary lines and have the dashes. So I will probably put in Pride and Prejudice into my DVD player, the one with Colin Firth, and use my ruler and line out the dashes.

    I don’t like dry audiobooks and I know my kids who just do science as I require it!!! We do family science on a loop and my science kid does it independent science as well!!! We love Video labs as well as doing them!!!

    What book would you start with earth science or astronomy ? I noticed zooology does not have a junior workbook ?

      Honestly I love the workbooks for older kids but not as much for younger kids so I would say it depends more on the age of your child

    Would the Anatomy Curriculum be too challenging for a 4th grader (age 10)? You mentioned saving it till later, so I was curious. I was gifted this curriculum with a Junior Notebook and my son really wants to learn about the human body. What is the difference with the normal notebook and the junior notebook?

    • @LifeintheMundane
      @LifeintheMundane  Před měsícem +1

      So if he is highly interested then I think it would be ok just maybe be willing to slow down a bit if it’s too much. The thing is you have nothing to loose by trying it, so I say go for it

      It has little sections sprinkled throughout that are called creation confirmation where they point to how certain things are confirmation of God creating the world.

      We do not use it anymore, not because I don’t like it but bc the daughter I was using it for needed to move to mastery approach math bc of some of her learning challenges
