I am very excited about what I read here about Basis. It almost sounds too good to be true. I am the OP, by the way. What is the catch?[/quote]
No catch but by way of explanation 3 classes of each science a week not 5 classes of each so they can fit it in
Also algebra covers a bit of earlier math so it's not really beyond many 6th graders

A benefit of the 3 science classes a year for 3 years instead of one each year is kids can really have time to evolve their understanding so when they take honors or ap science in high school it's not a shock[/quote]

I have to disagree about the Algebra 1 course. It is a full fledged high school Algebra 1 course that includes the quadratic formula. The Algebra 1/2 course is part pre-algebra and part algebra.

Here is s ampler page that includes some of the 3rd edition Algebra 1.
