We used Considering God's Creation for science for 4th and 6th grades from 2006-2007.
This program has several sections for each lesson including the following:
Preparation list
Vocabulary
Overview
Warm up activity
Bible Reading
Notebook instructions
Evolution Stumpers
Review
Digging Deeper
The activities and notebook pages were very easy to complete yet interesting enough that they help cement the lesson. The Bible reading suggestions can double as your Bible class, if desired.
There is enough information to give a good science overview but not so much that it is overwhelming. You can easily make this program more challenging if there is a need for that.
There weren't really any negatives for us. We had a really fun year with this program. If your child does not like hands on projects, this may not be the best program for you.
You can see more information and samples at the publisher's website.

Product: Considering God's Creation
Subject: Science
Levels Used: 2nd and 3rd
This curriculum didn't work for us at all. It attempted to cover a topic at a level that was too deep in just on or two days. One day we would study weather the next day plants. There was no review and my kids retained nothing. It was way over their heads.
