This is a great text for homeschoolers because it lists the supplies needed for each "module" (ie topic/chapter)which are easy to aquire. Beginning with a history of science (great!) Dr. Wile covers areas of interest including, what scientific inquiry is and how to analyze and interpret experiments to geology, biology,anatomy,physiology (w/o reproduction) and more. He is able to maintain the interest of my least scientific child because of the content and format. I highly recommend the text.
I was so excited to open this package when it came in the mail. I love the step by step text for the “teacher” and the many labs it has in the science curriculum. My kids are excited for science this year and we can’t wait to explore this together! Highly recommend!

This is a wonderful curriculum! We used this for my daughter's seventh grade, and she learned so much from the course. It is well-written, informative, and you feel like your child is learning what is necessary. There is always a great vocabulary list in which memorization is required. There are questions to think about throughout each module. And the experiments conveniently use supplies you already have in your house, so they are less expensive to do than other science curriculums I have seen. My daughter actually had FUN in science and always looked forward to the experiments. I highly recommend the Apologia curriculum. We will begin using Exploring Creation with Physical Science in the Fall, and we are already looking forward to it.
We are starting Module 3. So far, the book has been wonderful to work with. As a homeschooler we have a small co-op. Like the way material is written, easy to understand, written in conversation style. Experiments are fun, bring up alot of discussion. Look at religion and science, like the way this is presented. Holds science where it should be at this level. I have a 7th, soon to be 8th grader using it. Tests are good, too. A firm review of material/concepts tested. The On Your Own questions have been stimulating and curious to answer.
We are LOVING this series. We just started it this fall and the text is so user-friendly and easy to read. The author has done a fantastic job of talking "with" the student as he/she reads. Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful series!!!
