When I started using Streams last fall (2004), my 8th and 10 grade kids groaned. But I assured them that this would be the last time we would cover these historical periods. I supplimented the book with watching and discussing lots of educational videos from the public library and taking the chapter tests. Last week they both passed the CLEP test for Western Civilization 1. Now they each have 3 credits for college and I am so proud of them. After taking Biology this year, my 10th grader plans to intensely study it for 6 weeks and then take the Biology CLEP in mid July. We plan to study American Government next year and finish up with the CLEP for that subject. Taking CLEP tests are a great way to pay for college cheaply, doing one subject at a time, and the results transfer to almost all colleges.
Good luck
