I didn’t even finish the video before I went online and purchased for my 6th grader! I absolutely love that it also has a dvd option for the video lessons!! We live in a very rural area and internet connection is more of a suggestion really 😂 so that is perfect for us!! I used your name at checkout to let them know how I heard about them!

We’ve loved Earth Science. I was a little worried about the quick videos but he does such a great job getting the important information out in a way that both of my children remember. I like watching the videos also. We plan to do Physical Science next year.

Thank you for sharing! I love that they have an archeology class

thanks for the review and info! just ordered for my four girls!

[hendricks]

We just ordered introductory science last week!

I hadn't come across this curriculum until I saw your email and this may be exactly what I have been looking for. I really appreciate the well thought out layout that makes scheduling and reporting easier on me and the leveled workbooks and videos are a bonus as I have 2 kids just a few grades apart. This looks like a solid and affordable high school option further down the road as well!

We just got in our Science Course in and we are starting it Monday. Can’t wait! We decided to start with Introduction to Science.

Looking forward to checking this out more!

[amberhayes]

I’ve been searching for something like this!! Ordering it now!!

[brandienns]

Oh this looks like a great science curriculum! I have not heard of it until now. I will have to add this to our school work.

[kateperkins]

Great review! We have the exact same requirements for a science course, so I am definitely going to be doing this next year for my oldest. Thank you!!

[amandab.]

We plan to use the Introductory Science course next fall for my 6 and 8 year old. We are excited!

[RockSimmer-galGod]

I’ve never heard of science shepherd!!! I feel like masterbooks does good at those goals but I’m going to look into science shepherd!!! I don’t care about the schedule of the curriculum as we modify the schedule!!! I love that it’s a video course and it can be used independently!!!

Sara, thank you for sharing this.. it was super helpful!! I really like the format and I think my kids will too! We're going to go for it this upcoming school year ☺️👍❤️

How are you guys liking it? Did it work out? I was just stressing out over where I can find a good Pre-chemistry course for my son next year as a 7th grader. I didn’t know they had this course, it’s been awhile since I looked at Science Shepherd. I really think this will work for us. I was debating between Apologia (but there are soooo many experiments and it’s so pricey for the experiment kit at Nature’s workshop) then there is Masterbooks (but it looks so dry and so expensive for what it it is) then the Good and the Beautiful which looks nice as a unit study but I don’t like the fact that it’s parent led as I hated chemistry in all of middle school, high school and college lol! Abeka and BJU Press do not have pre-chemistry. Have you seen the “Elements of Faith” book from Masterbooks? That would be a good add on for this course. Thank you for this review, you may have saved a ton of headache and money for me next year!!!

Thank you! I love this. Looking forward to using this.

I've been hearing good things about this curriculum lately. I'd love to try one of their classes with my 8th grader next year. So many good options. He love science.

[faithmomlife]

Thanks for sharing! This is what we have been looking at for the upcoming school year.

[MargaretWelwood]

Thank you for this. I plan to check out the Introductory Science sample with my granddaughter.

[AlishaGarciax]

Thank you. I heard about Science Shepherd through one of your videos and wrote it on my curriculums to look into. Thank you for this thorough walk-through and it does seem like such a simple and easy open-and-go curriculum.

I wanted to ask what subjects you cover for all your older kids. I guess I'm struggling to walk away from an all-in-one curriculum and opting for a curriculum pieced together by me. Very timid as it is my first year and never taught at all before.

And do you have a video showing how you planned your day with all your kids. I struggle trying to manage our time and how it will best benefit my kids and I. My kids are very energetic.

There are days i just want to send them bqck to public school but I know that is satan making me doubt myself and the calling to homeschool.

Another question, I heard you talk about homeschool conventions and how it helped you to bring about your youtube channel. Where can i find homeschool conventions or classes that will help prosper this journey?

Again, thankyou for all you do and your diligence in this. Your videos and words help me greatly and truly inspire me to keep going because its worth it and its fun. ❤
