Well, at the moment...

    We just started using The Story of Science Aristotle and my 13 year old is really liking it. I bought the sudent and teacher guides, and we mostly use it as as discussion jumpoff point, and I pick things out of the teacher guide I think she might be interested in the cross curriculum suggestions. I wish we had discovered these at the beginning of the school year.

    I adore science. One of the things I love about homeschooling is delving deeper into science than I did as a child.

    As for "The Magic of Reality", I've been considering that book for my son. How do you and the kids like it?
