4.0 out of 5 stars Informational, December 31, 2010
A Kid's Review
This review is from: Getting Ahead: Science (DVD)
These DVDs have a wealth of information in them. There are two hosts who alternate narrating topics throughout the four DVDs. I teach 6/7 science and the little girl was much more appropriate and held my student's attention much longer than the elder gentleman who narrates. Some of the footage does seem a little old but still relevant. All in all, it is a good product to use as a visual aid fr science.

4.0 out of 5 stars Lots of information but easy to understand, February 8, 2011
This review is from: Getting Ahead: Science (DVD)
We watched the disc in this set that deals with physical science. It contained relevant information from my son's 9th grade physical science textbook even though the age range listed for the DVD is 9-14. The presentation kept the concepts simple to understand. The topics covered are matter: solids, liquids and gases, forces, light, magnetism, simple machines, sound, and waves in water. A good overview of physical science. This would be good for homeschoolers to use. Most science DVDs for kids that we have seen are too silly for a student studying physical science and seem to talk down to the viewer, but this one is an improvement on that. It treats the students like they are older than the early elementary grades. There is no prep for chemistry, however, which is understandable, given the fact that most of the target viewers will not be studying chemistry for a while yet.
