For our science unit,

the first 2 years we used SonlightScience,

this year we started to add in NoeoScience and RS4K.

.

I've heard a lot of compliment about RS4K but after using its Biology,

I've decided to drop its Chemistry and Physics (might use them in the future),

it's just not our "style" right now.

.

In the other hand, NoeoScience uses very interesting living books,

including some biographies and books on science history which we really love.

(we are using its chemistry now,

as usual I add in some extra books and also our own Periodic Table and Chemistry Songs)

.

Compare with SonlightScience which is also using living books,

NoeoScience seems to be more fun and lively.

Unfortunately its curriculum is only up to level 6 (age 12)

I will still have to source for something else after we finish our books.
