GBExcellent homeschool resource This is our first year homeschooling without the use of a structured curriculum. This is a great program for Science and Social Studies. I love the ability to pick and choose what we are going to study and find the information to be thorough and accurate.

GBIntegrates well with fifth grade curriculum! Three lexile levels enables us to use articles for guided reading. Alignment to NGSS standards enables me to integrate literacy and science. The units on U.S. history and Native Americans are excellent for our social studies! I teach fifth grade.

GBLoved the content but difficultly linking students through Google Classroom Loved the content and that the students could have it read to them. However, was unable to just link it to my Google Classroom. The kids had to sign up individually using my class code. A bit more time consuming.

GBGreat source for science and social studies We have used KidsDiscover for many years. First we used the magazine and then the online version. With the time period our 6th grade has for science and ss, it is difficult to go over all of the textbook. The length of the articles are perfect to read and discuss during our time. They are interesting and hit most of the main points we are aiming for. It is also nice to have students take the short quiz for comprehension. Customer service is also wonderful!

GBTwo Stars and a Wish I like the social studies for the 6th grade level. We read the middle reading level. The photos are well done and page layouts are arranged nicely with the right vocabulary for my 11-year-old. Well done. I did observe that the upper grade levels for the history/social studies becomes too much of name and date information. I wish you could show the date items in a historical time line that would capture the kids interest more. I realize you are trying to cover certain curriculum rules. Anyway I am sure you will take this in and do something clever.
