Great Home School Resource
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 15 years ago
This is a wonderful resource for home schooling families. The textbook is divided into two main sections, biology and chemistry: within these sections there is coverage of all aspects of these general subjects. The writing style is clear and direct. Each chapter has experiments for hands on experience. Most items used in the experiments are readily available. The unusual aspect of this book is that it is at once a teacher's manual and student textbook. It explains for the teacher clearly the objective and learning, and then gives the student study materials and experiments and writing assignments to clarify what they have observed and experienced. A good textbook for preparing a high schooler for the GED test. One of the textbooks I would choose for a student inerested in college prep and for preparation taking SAT/ACT tests.
