Exploring Creation with Physical Science
Exploring Creation with Physical Science is a Christian physical science curriculum that helps your teen understand the laws and principles that govern the physical world while developing a deeper appreciation for God's creation.
Typically used in 8th or 9th grade, this course combines chemistry, physics, earth science, and environmental science into a comprehensive introduction to high school-level science. Through 15 modules, your student will investigate topics such as matter, energy, motion, forces, weather, the atmosphere, the hydrosphere, chemistry, physics, and earth systems.
This complete set includes the student textbook, Student Notebook, and Solutions and Tests Manual. Written directly to the student, the course provides clear explanations, detailed illustrations, guided experiments, and real-world applications that help scientific concepts come to life.
The spiral-bound Student Notebook serves as a lab journal, study guide, and organizational tool. It includes a daily schedule, guided lab reports, note-taking pages, study questions, experiment charts, and review materials designed to help your teen process and retain what he is learning.
Hands-on experiments reinforce key concepts throughout the course, encouraging your student to observe, test, analyze, and draw conclusions. Families who prefer added convenience can purchase the optional lab kit, which provides many of the materials needed for the experiments.
Advanced Concept sections provide additional challenge for students who are ready to dig deeper, while the Solutions and Tests Manual supplies tests, answers, and grading support.As your teen works through the course, he will develop scientific reasoning, observation skills, laboratory experience, and the study habits needed for future science courses. Whether your student plans to continue with biology, chemistry, physics, or simply wants a stronger understanding of the world around him, Exploring Creation with Physical Science provides a rigorous, Bible-based foundation for high school science.

Exploring Creation with Physical Science
Eric, a.
I like this science in some ways & in some ways I don't. First, the notebook is cool & it has a lot of really neat pictures to look at of space. The experiments are really cool too & usually don't use anything we don't already have around the house, so I like that. What I don't like is that the questions don't always word things the way the textbook does. So when you are looking for the answer, a lot of times you have to really figure it out because the book doesn't just say it plainly like the question is asking.

Apologia's Physical Science
Landen, a.
It is descriptive and complicated, which I like. The book goes really deep into the subjects from the modules.

Solid curriculum

This is a wonderful introduction to high school science. My eight grade son really enjoyed and learned a lot about earth science, physics and chemistry from this course. The book is well laid out and very readable. I would certainly recommend this for a 8-9th grade student.

Gold standard in junior high/high school science
Amy G.
It's easy to see why Dr. Wile's science books are usually the default among older homeschooled students. The writing is a conversational tone that makes the book a joy to read, and the child can learn with minimal help from the parent. Additionally, at this level the labs use regular household materials that can be purchased at the grocery store, so you don't have to seek out a specialty supplier. We're using this for a 9th grader, and I'd highly recommend it.
