Apologia Science Review Round-Up
While Apologia offers more subjects than just science, I feel like they are most known for their science. For that reason we have A LOT of Apologia Science reviews from our authors here at The Curriculum Choice.
To make it easier for you to get a full picture of the all the science curriculum that is offered from Apologia, I am collecting all our reviews here in one place and breaking them down by specific science curriculum.
Apologia Elementary Science Reviews
Apologia Elementary Science is a creation based, Charlotte Mason style science curriculum for kids in grades K-6. There are 7 topics to choose from as well as two levels of corresponding notebooking journals.
THE APOLOGIA ELEMENTARY SCIENCE SERIES INCLUDES:
- Earth Science – Review I, Review II
- Chemistry/Physics – Review I
- Astronomy – Review I, Review II
- Botany
- Human Anatomy and Physiology – Review I, Review II
- 3 Zoology Texts: Flying Creatures, Swimming Creatures (Review I), and Land Creatures (Review I, Review II).
These texts follow the immersion principle of learning. Rather than studying a wide-variety of unrelated science topics during the course of a school year, these texts dig deeply into one science topic.
