This year we are having a world of fun learning about Biology. Several families have been getting together with us for two hours a week, to conduct several experiments using A+ Projects in Biology. We are following the DVD curriculum program: Biology 101 According to the Days of Creation. The DVD's have been an excellent guide, and the A+ Projects have worked wonderfully for a lab guide. We also have added in several other library books, and educational movies to enhance the curriculum. Our students keep a three ring binders to write down hypotheses, lab notes and to draw pictures of certain projects. We also have taken several pictures of experiments to be coordinated with written work! The DVD program covers: Plants, Aquatics, Avian, Land Animals, The Human Body, and Genetics.



This is a great movie for 13+ students.
