5.0 out of 5 stars One subject all year?, August 8, 2006
OK, I was sceptical! Everywhere I turned people were raving about the Jeannie Fulbright science books, but I just didn't get it. How could you spend an entire year studying just ONE thing?? What a waste of time! Wouldn't we get bored? Finally, I gave in to the peer preasure and ordered Zoology 1 thinking that if the books were THAT good, we could at least give them a try- for a month or two. Well, they ARE that good! and my whole outlook has changed. There is more than enough information for an entire year of study! There is just NO WAY we could get through it any faster. And what facinating information it is! I already learned a few things just by paging through it and my children (who have gotten a few glimpses of the beautiful pictures) are so excited to start. There are plenty of fun experiments (very important in this hands-on family) but they are not too complicted or time consuming (also very important) and the necessary supplies are inexpensive and easy to come by. And each book comes with a password so you can access the course website where there is EVEN MORE information! How cool is that? I am now a firm believer and can't wait to study ALL of these wonderful books.

5.0 out of 5 stars Is science supposed to be this much fun?, May 29, 2008
I have to admit, I did not expect to LOVE this book. By the 2nd chapter, I was hooked. The suet recipe is a huge hit with the birds in our neighborhood, and we had a blast making it. Every day we sit at our table and watch the chickadees and nuthatches taking suet to their babies. The birdhouses were a whole family affair, and formed memories for our lifetime.

I chose this book because I have 2 animal lovers and thought this would be a good science book. It is way better than that. My kids love watching the birds and identifying them. The Field Notebooks are filled with pictures, dates, plants and animals all around us, and it was not a chore to get them to do them.

We have completed public school and other homeschool curriculums for science, but this is one the children WANT to do. Not only do they want to do it, they remember what they have learned far longer than the other curriculums. This curriculum uses all of the audio, visual, tactile, oral and manipulates to teach the course.

5.0 out of 5 stars Tough on Curriculum review here, July 11, 2008
I've been home schooling for some time now and I have a rigorous academic standard in my school. I have to say, Flying Creatures of the Fifth Day was a great choice for my family. What a pleasurable presentation! The easy to read explanations made it usable for each member of my family (age range 5-12)in such a way that encouraged retention of facts, and also created a desire to learn. My children were ready to read more books from the library, on their own time, because they were intrigued by what they had learned.
The simple experiments were easy to facilitate, and at the same time, hit the point head on, so we really gained an understanding of concepts. The narration and notebook ideas encourage our writing skills. The beautiful photography, coupled with the availability of book extras, was a wonderful addition to our science studies. My children were educated and encouraged to love learning.
I was relieved as it is simple to teach and requires little lesson planning on my part. The online support via book extras and yahoo groups provides a nurturing teaching atmosphere as well.
Finally, having the opportunity to easily connect science with bible, makes this a genuine pleasure for us all. This was a great find. Thank you, Jeannie for your great line of science products.
