I’ve heard it said over and over again that kids grow up so fast. Well, I’m going to say it again — it was just yesterday that my oldest was in preschool and now she will be a freshman in high school. Kids grow up fast! I’ve started planning her courses for the year and one thing on her schedule will be Apologia Biology.
High School Science:
I will admit that I’m a little nervous moving into this new phase. One constant over the years has been our choice of science curriculum though. We’ve used Apologia for several years and will continue to do so into this new high school phase. My daughter is particularly excited to start Apologia biology this year. Labs, microscopes, dissections— oh my!
You can view the table of contents, a list of the labs included in the book, plus a sample module on Apologia’s website. Through the year I’ll be sharing some of the activities we do plus a more detailed review.
I figure that there might be several of you still planning your course of action for this year or looking ahead to next year’s science schedule. I teamed up with Apologia to give one reader an Exploring Creation with Biology book, a solutions and test manual, and a full-course cd-rom. What a great way to start back to school!
I know my husband can’t wait until my daughter is in chemistry. He has an MS in analytical chem.
I’m really happy to learn about Apologia — I hadn’t before and will check it out. I feel like our family needs something a little bit more thorough for Science. My kids are still younger so I’m not interested in this Giveaway but wanted to reach out and thank you for sharing 🙂
I could use this for sure! We are doing my typical hodgepodge for science this year (8th), but once we hit high school, we will probably shift to Apologia.
I would choose Exploring Botany…with the Notebook!
I love all of Apologia’s books. Another one that I am wanting to get my hands on is the Botany 🙂
We need the Biology set this year!
I love Apologia. Science is one of our favorite subjects.
I am also interested in Exploring Creation through chemistry.
Zoology: flying creatures
great giveaway!
I would choose Exploring Botany…with the Notebook!
I am really looking forward to doing biology with my daughters, but I am also excited about doing anatomy in a few years. That was my favorite subject in school and can’t wait to share it with my girls.
We are thinking about using Apologia this year. I just can’t decide which one to use, probably either Anatomy or Botany
I am new to homeschooling and to Apologia but I am definitely interested in learning more.
We are loving Apologia science in our homeschool. What we need is the Biology curriculum though!
Ilove all the apologia books! thanks for offering this!!
Marine Biology!!!! 🙂
I would like Apologia Physical Science.
I could definitely use this!
Oh, and I would pick any of them, they all look good.
My son begins high school this year and we have chosen Apologia Biology. He looks forward to his bi-monthly study labs with other homeschooling families in our co-op!
My daughter woule love Biology!
We are preparing to enter the world of upper level science this year. We are thinking of getting the General Science book for my 7th grader.
I particularly like Exploring Creation with Human Anatomy and Physiology
my kids have loved all the Apologia books, but I thnk their favorite was Botany!
I would pick the Biology 2 book, The Human Body.
Biology!
We are doing Biology for my oldest son this fall. Love Apologia Science. Thank you for doing the giveaway!
I have never used Apologia but it dure sound interesting. I would love the iology or physics course!
I would choose astronomy. My daughter is fascinated by the sky.
That’s a tough question – we plan/hope to use them all at some point. But, my son votes for Swimming Creatures of the Fifth Day – he is consumed by the wonders of the ocean.
We are doing zoology 2 this year and loving it so far! 🙂
I would want to study the anatomy course!
We love them all but are looking forward to using Astronomy this next year.
Marine Biology!!
I would love to win the Zoology to with my 3rd Grader’s MFW this year. We will be studying animals so the Zoology set would be perftect!
If I had to choose another one I would say exploring chemistry with creation!
Marine Biology looks really intriguing!
My high schooler really wants to do Marine Biology!
I love Biology! I learned a lot when my oldest did Biology year before last.
And if you think your daughter might like supplemental videos, etc. I posted videos on my blog to go along w/ each module. Just things I found online. You can see them here: http://homeschoolersresources.blogspot.com/
Just wanting to share what I’ve found. 🙂
Awesom1 I will def. be checking out what you have found. Thanks for letting me know about the videos.
You’re welcome! =)
Wow. First year homeschooling–four kids, ages 6,7,9, and 11. A bit nervous, but REALLY excited!! Still narrowing down curriculum options. Apologia looks awesome! Thanks for the opportunity!
My son is excited for chemistry. Thanks for the giveaway!
The Marine Biology book as my oldest wants to be a marine biologist when she grows up. At least she does today. lol
My 6th grader will be in high school before I know it! We love Apologia and this will be wonderful to have!
It would probably be the Marine Biology book.
This is exactly what science my 11th grade daughter wants to do, but finances haven’t permitted us to purchase it for her yet! What a blessing for some family — hope it is ours! Thanks!
Apologia is a great science curriculum for homeschoolers.
We love it and used their elementary sires.
Very looking forward to win the Biology book.
Thanks for the giveaway.
We are just at the beginning of our homeschool adventure. I haven’t used any of Apologia’s books. We would love to have Apologia for our curriculum!
We would love the Marine Biology book as well
Zoology!
anatomy and physiology!!
Any of them would be great, but any Zoology I would say.
This would be great! Wonderful giveaway!
always wanted to try the space one..
My son would love to win this!
Science is his favorite subject!
Love this. Thanks
I am so excited to start using the Apologia curriculum this year.
I love Apologia. We are working through the Human Anatomy and Physiology one and love it!
We’ve done Flying Creatures and we are going to do Astronomy this year. I think I would like Physical Science.
We love Apologia! it is the only thing we use for science.
I’d like to see the astronomy books.
My son loves Apologia & Biology! Thanks for the opportunity!
Thanks for the giveaway!!
Wow! So many to choose from! They all look great!
I would choose Botany for sure. I love this giveaway too! Our daughter will be doing this for 9th grade this year, this would be a blessing to win 🙂
We love Apologia!! If could chose another book, it would have to be Exploring Creation with Human Anatomy and Physiology 🙂
I’d choose the Marine Biology. I think my kiddos would really enjoy it!
My son would love the Marine Biology one day. We’re not there yet so I would choose Exploring Creation with Physical Science.
I’d love to have the Botany book as we are studying that next year!
Zoology!!
I would like the Anatomy and Physiology.
I think my son would like Astronomy.
I’d choose Marine Biology. My children would love to explore ocean life! We are planning on beginning Biology in the fall!
I would absolutely LOVE to use this biology program with my oldest! If I could choose one other book, I would pick Anatomy!
We’re actually doing Anatomy by them this year so I guess we already chose that one 🙂
It is a ways off for us, but I’m looking forward to the Human Body study! I think my boys will enjoy physical science.
I love all of Apologia’s books. Another one that I am wanting to get my hands on is the Botany
What a great resource!! Apologia is new to me but I like the looks of everything. Probably anatomy or botany but would like any of their resources.
I want the biology book..lol
If I could have any Apologia book, it would be Who is God? I love all their books, though!
I would love to win the Botany, thank you!
I would love to win the Apologia Biology!
If I could choose any other book it would be Zoology. I think my little animal lovers would love it!
Swimming Creatures of the Fifth Day. I actually will be getting all the elementary books at some point this year so we can use Apologia in conjunction with Sonlight Science as Michelle (Delightful Learning) and Susana (Our Homeschool Fun) do.
I am actually excited about the Biology and would love to get Exploring Creation with Astronomy for my lovers of the stars 🙂
I’d love to do astronomy!
We are going to be doing Zoology 1 Flying Creatures this year & super stoked! I would love to win Zoology 2!! 😀
Marine Biology!
We would Love to win this. We have used Apologia from the beginning.
Possibly the chemistry, because I never learned that in school and I find it interesting.
That’s a hard question to answer! I want them all! 😉 ~~~ That said, “The Human Body Fearfully and Wonderfully Made!” would be at the top of my list.
I need the anatomy book
I would buy a
Any of the Advanced Apologia Biology. I have a child that wants to be a veterinarian.
Advanced Biology. My daughter LOVES biology.
Marine Biology. We live near the ocean so have a lot of field trip options.
Wow! Thanks for sharing the fun!
My daughter is begging to start the zoology series!
If I had to pick another Apologia book, it would be “Who Am I?” 🙂
We’ve been loving the elementary and middle school science. This would be perfect for us! My son is ready for high school and I didn’t even think about ordering it until last week. I guess I’m clinging to my oldest’s childhood a little too hard! 😉
Oh, and if I could pick another Apologia book, I’d love one of their elementary worldview studies – maybe “Who am I?”. And of course the notebook to go with it.
I would have to pick General Science as another that I would like to study.
Being a nurse, I would do Human Body. We really enjoyed the Fulbright Human Anatomy book last year and I would love to do a high school level course.
Thanks for hosting this giveaway!
I really like all of Apologia’s science curriculum. I will be using the Anatomy book for my 6th grader this coming year, but she is also interested in marine biology. I am planning on this same Biology curriculum for my 9th grader, so I’m thrilled at the chance to possibly win it!
I would love all of the exploring creation books but if I had to pick one to start with, I would try the anatomy and physiology.
This would be great for our future marine biologist!
I would love to win and the book I would pick if I could would be the Who is God? series\
We are trying this out for the first time this year….wish us luck!!!
physics
I would study the Astronomy.
I have 8 children and last year was our 1st year to use Apologia. We did Botany and Astronomy. This year the elementary children and I are doing Anatomy and Physics. It is my favorite so far 🙂 How awesome our God is in His construction of our bodies. Every few paragraphs I would tell the children “Listen to this!!!” I hope they enjoy it as much as I have enjoyed preparing it for them. Our God is an awesome God! My oldest son is doing Physical Science and my 13 year old is doing General Science this year. We LOVE Apologia!!
I would love any of the Apologia books! I can’t choose just one. 🙂
We used all of the Elementary Science. We have also used High School General, Physical and Chemistry. We are doing Biology this year (and still need the books!) We we also use Physics next year 🙂
Biology!
Would love physical science.
My second choice in books would be the Marine Biology books!
I would choose Zoology or Botany.
