How to Create a Unit Study Around Apologia Science Now that your junior and senior high students are using those wonderful Apologia science textbooks, what do you do with your younger ones? Why not do a unit study based on these textbooks and include them all? This idea can be adapted to work for both Apologia's and.
You can begin your oldest child in either of these textbooks as early as 6th grade, doing 1/2 book or more per year. As you progress through the book, use the ideas below for your younger children. DIRECTIONS: 1. First, read a portion of the textbook during family reading time. Even if your little one doesn’t understand everything or appear to being paying attention, he will get something out of it. Second, do the lab experiments from each module together as a family.
Everyone will enjoy this. Third, assign additional reading, worksheets, research, and/or internet activities to each child according to the child's ability. See sample unit below for ideas. For very young children, read one of the reading suggestions aloud to them.
(Do not go into a lot of detail if you are planning an additional unit on any of these topics.) 5. Have your 7th & 8th grade student do the 'On Your Own' and 'Study Guide' assignments in the textbook as 'home'work. SAMPLE UNIT: This unit is ©Copyright 2012 by Cindy Downes. All rights reserved.
