I was chased by instagram ads for months until finally late one night, I pulled the trigger. We’ve never found a curriculum that works for us for science. It was either all reading and writing or super time intensive experiments with no real learning experience.
This curriculum there’s great books with a real rhyme and reason on learning benchmarks. And then very easy and fun experiments that are almost always possible for my kids to do with minimal effort on my part. The experiments are fun and take 15 minutes and really clearly showcase what they’ve just learned about.
My 4th and 5th graders do the reading on their own and then we verbally do the lab book work (it would be a lot of writing if we didn’t).

Excellent!
This program is everything it advertises - a living book and experiment based biology course. We like how short the lessons are and that most experiment items are included in the kit. If I could offer any constructive criticism, it would be to make one teachers book instead of three. The program feels cohesive, I understand the intent behind the separate books. It would just be more convenient to have all the information for any given day on one page. However, that’s an incredibly nit-picky gripe. We love Noeo and will be using it again in the future! We also use MasterBooks science alongside Noeo to add depth. If you’re on the fence about this program, you can find gently used editions on eBay for fairly reasonable prices. Overall - solid program, easy short lessons, *most* materials come with it. No regrets here! The lessons leave plenty of margin for rabbit-trailing when desired, and are not overwhelming when going through a tough season of bare-minimums. Highly recommend!
