    Hands-on experiments

    Every week your kids will get their hands dirty in the real world by performing echolocation, going on nature safaris, making stethoscopes, and more. And with easy-to-read experiment guides, your kids can do detailed experiments practically on their own—while you catch up on emails.

    Have multiple kids who want to discover new plants and animals and learn how they live? Perfect! Biology 1 is designed so kids across multiple grades can share books, experiments, and lab manuals, or have their own.

    Enjoyable and doable!

    We have really enjoyed NOEO Biology 1 so far. The reading selections are easy to do, and we have all learned a lot. Having the activities all prepped means we are actually doing them.

    We aren't using the worksheets because my son isn't a strong writer yet, but I think it's nice that they are available.

    LOVE THIS CURRICULUM

    As a busy mom of 7, I love this curriculum. The books included are great and not overkill. I wouldn’t consider myself someone who enjoys science, but this kit really makes it fun. The experiments are fun and easy to do and my second and third grader have liked them all so far.

    Best way to learn

    We love how he learns so much without it seeming like he’s learning. It’s much more fun to read through a series of purposeful books then a daunting big text book and so many skills are incorporated like writing and study skills etc.
