This curriculum honestly felt like an afterthought for the company. We purchased the online materials and textbook after our review (it honestly seemed decent when we were initially looking at it -- however, you never really know until you fully adopt...). It was missing chunks of chemistry I content. The textbook was vague in explanations and altogether lacked depth, quantity, and quality. The teaching resources were sparse (the presentations had very little content on them). The labs were not typical chem I style. Students had to make up their own procedures in the spirit of "critical thinking." Our teachers spent loads of time creating and finding additional resources. There's really not much good, if anything, I can say about this curriculum. We were disappointed. I would not recommend it.
