4 Year Rotation of Science
1.) Life Science – animals, human beings and plants
2.) Earth science and astronomy
3.) Chemistry
4.) Physics


That’s what homeschooling is all about to me. It’s been a lifestyle change. We learn all the time, in everything we do. And while doing it, we enjoy each other’s company. If you are homeschooling for the long haul I would like to encourage you to keep some sort of cycle of the sciences. It lifts the burden of what to teach next and gives you the freedom to be creative within certain parameters.
Side note to moms not sure if you will homeschool next year: If you are not sure that you are able to homeschool for more then a year or two, I would stick with the traditional textbook style curriculum so that your child is not behind when they re-enter. That’s my opinion.

My son just attended a camp in Rolla, MO that has a Jr. Vet Program. He loved it. Where is there a marine biology camp? That would be awesome to attend to. He is all about any kind of animal! I am a biologist and LOVE science. So glad my kids do to. It is my favorite to teach as it is so hands on.
