An Ol’ Broad’s Ramblings

Any Homeschoolers Out There?

7 April 2008, 6:24 pm. . Filed under Education, Science, Stuff.

Need some advice!  Jr is needing some aid on her chemistry (high school).  The book we are using is great, and covers a lot of the algebra/geometry she needs.  My problem, I’d like to find a kit or something that she could do some of the experiments….without blowing up the house, or any such thing.  You know, simple things.  We have kitchen stuff, but I’d like to be able for her to actually SEE and experience some of the stuff she is reading and figuring out.  Visuals, don’cha know!

In case you are wondering, she’s finished history, and mostly her electives are all wrapped up, so concentrating on one subject at a time is working for her.
