6th Grade Biology Homeschool Curriculum
Most 6th graders memorize cell parts for a test and forget them by next week. Ours investigate why their dog has those exact markings, track how their breakfast becomes energy, or discover alien worlds in pond water - then realize they've been doing biology all along.
