My girls are in 4th and 7th grade and want to use ABeka science. In an attempt to make it more interesting I am trying to find and post videos that relate to the chapters they choose to study. To make their tests less stressful I ordered the test packets from Christian Liberty Press and will make it a point to post videos relating to what is covered on the tests. I'll also post anything else I find interesting on other material in the chapter. I hope my kids enjoy!
In our study of history we have always used Abeka. This worked well for elementary but as we began 7th grade, covering all of history in one year seemed overwhelming. I ordered My Father's World for history and we've gone really slow aiming to put fun back into the study of history. I want my girls to always be aware of God's hand throughout history. I want them to be excited by it.
Somehow along the way science and history have become the least favorite subjects of my children. I hope this will change. I can not teach them everything about science and history but I hope to give them a love for learning it on thier own. I pray this love for learning about the things of God lasts their whole life through.
