ScienceFusion Homeschool


We are searching for a Chemistry curriculum for 5th grade.  This one looked interesting so I am passing it on!For grades K–5, kits include materials for one year of science study. In addition to traditional science topics, each elementary homeschool package includes a unit on science and technology, progressing from science skills to understanding technology to the engineering process.K–5 Contents
For grades 6–8, we offer eleven modules, ten covering key life, earth, and physical science topics, plus one on science and technology careers. These modules are not designed as full-year science curriculum; three or four modules can be completed in one year. Modules are appropriate for all middle grades, so parents can choose whether to mix life, earth, and physical science topics or focus on one.
