Rainbow Science consists of The Spectrum, a high school Chemistry program, The Rainbow, a middle grades creation-based science program, and is currently in the process of finishing The Colors, an elementary science program. These programs were developed by a teacher and homeschooling father of 5.
The Spectrum Chemistry is a one-year lab-based chemistry course. Each week consists of three lessons - two text lessons and one lab. The text is concise and contains daily exercises for the student to complete. All lab materials and pre-measured chemicals, except for one gallon of distilled water are included with the course. This course is student-directed and parent participation is optional. A free 800 number for support in the course is provided.
The Rainbow is a two-year science program developed for students ages 12-14 and covers physics, chemistry, biology, life science, and geology. Lessons require no prep time, and are meant to be used for 30 minutes to an hour, approximately three days per week. All necessary materials for lab assignments are included in the kit.
