Five stars for studying the stars |

BACKGROUND: Although married to a biologist, I myself am not science-oriented. My 5 participants range from 2/3 to 11/12 years, with baby in tow.
ANALYSIS: The course is clearly laid out, experiments doable, and lessons interesting. The concepts are in depth enough to require focus, but not out of reach.
EXPERIENCE: We used this course over one year, studying science two days per week. Lessons lasted from one to three weeks. I adapted the readings to my children through some minor oral editing.
We did not buy the astronomy notebook. You can print astronomy pages from the apologia website. We wrote our own question sheets and a final exam based on questions and vocabulary words provided in the book.
I would have benefited from a more thorough explanation of a couple topics. The rest was superb! My children's retention level was high, and their ability to intelligently reason through Creation vs. evolution has increased.
