In Lyrical Earth Science: Geology, we used more old tunes like “Shenandoah,” “Boll Weevil,” and even Sousa’s “Washington Post March” to help you learn foundational geologic information. To help you better understand the earth’s surface and how its concepts fit together, we organized the 18 songs and chapters into three groupings:
  • Building up the crust and moving it around
  • What the crust is made of
  • Wearing down the crust
This set includes the textbook, workbook, and CD performed by acclaimed artist Bobby Horton.

5 out of 5 stars
Straightforward and Thorough
I am using this with my 11 year old son, and find it to be at a good challenge level for him, though I wouldn't use it for a younger student than that due to the large amount of new vocabulary presented. It is a solid, detailed, but no-frills geology curriculum that is very do-able. He can read and do the work on his own, one chapter a week, and we are adding a bunch of activities I found online to give a hands-on element as well as an earth science DVD ("Inside Planet Earth"). The songs add a fun element, and my younger kids, who are studying the same topics with other materials, enjoy them too. The curriculum is a nice baseline that stands on its own but is also easy to add to or to use as a jumping-off point for more in-depth study of any of the topics presented. — Hilary S
