Tops Science was one of our favorites. I loved that many of the activities also had material kits you could purchase. Saved me running around looking for a bit of this and a bit of that!

We did Apologia General Science with our 5th grader (he wanted to work with his older sibling) and Apologia Physical Science for 6th. General Science was pretty tough and on the dry side, but thorough. Physical Science seemed much more enjoyable. We also purchased the instructional DVD and the kit for experiments, which was a huge help. We did Monarch (7th grade General Science) online last year. It was fine, but I felt out of the loop and he felt isolated, so we are going back to book studies so we can “be on the same page” easier. Now, I’m at a loss as to what he should study this year. I expect he will go back to public school next year and study Biology. I thought Earth and Space made sense for this year, but I’m not sure which would be best. I’d love to find something where he would watch an instructor on DVD (as science is not my forte), read the chapter, do experiments, have review work that opens discussions and tests that I grade.

We are in the elementary levels, so we piece together our own experiments and projects together with Kiwi Crate and SciShow Kids and Crash Course Kids (SciShow and Crash Course are both YouTube channels and I believe are related. Their older counterparts have everything from World History to Psychology, Philosophy, Engineering, Science, etc).

In reply to Michele Daws. What did you come up with to use? I am exactly where you were a year ago, I feel very lost in looking for high school science classes.

I am trying to find a science curriculum for my 9th grader to do. We currently have Alpha Omega Lifepac Science. I am feeling this is not going to be very enjoyable for her. She is one that likes things to be fun/and enjoyable. Hand’s on type. She’s interested in drawing/art, cooking. Please I’m in need of help. Tanks

I see that you list free educational lessons for early elementary science learners.

Here’s a few that you might like to list:

This was exactly what I needed! I immediately fell in love with Elemental Science & ordered the PDF right away for “Intro to Science.” Exactly what I was looking for!!!
