I was following Lindsey’s thread on AIG for science. We’re leaning towards AIG as well, but I have one specific question:
I’m hoping someone who has experience with this curriculum can tell me whether the experiments and activities can be done independently (with total ease, even if I were not in the room). My older boys are aching for some school areas that are ALL theirs, so I’m hoping this could be it. My thinking is that I might be able to (properly) focus on school matters specific to the littles while the older kids do the hands-on part of science. Yes, it means it’s not as much along the lines of a family subject, but I am okay with that at this point.
Students in question on this independent idea would be 5th grade and 6th grade.
Thanks in advance! Angie
