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 enjoyed the “backyard chat” format. Very reminiscent of the first Apologia science review video I saw from you

[emomma]

Thank you for this video. This will be our first year with Apologia Science. We are starting with Earth Science.

Loved the review on Apologia! Good insights!

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

I really enjoyed this video. Very informative and fun background scenes.

I'm going to have to show Cy this video because he still talks about that playhouse in your backyard...he loved that little house!

our introduction to Apologia was Earth Science. We are using Apologia for co-op this year also

[berrypatch]

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.

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 😀

[SevenInAll]

I agree that the updates to Apologia's new editions have been a huge improvement!

I appreciated all the "location" changes 😃!

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!!!

Thank you for this. Would you recommend getting the notebook for Zoology 1?

[Brazilmoon]

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

[Rachor]

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?

[allysewoods]

We started with Zoology this year. Do you always follow the schedule? I feel like each lesson is too long. I have a 2nd and 4th grader

[even.wildflowers.grow.]

Question what are your thoughts on apologia math? Would you recommend?

[chrismiller]

Does the curriculum address evolution? Thanks
