Everything You Need to Ace Chemistry in One Big Fat Notebook. (Big Fat Notebooks).

Bought this Feb 2025. I love the layout of the book it's easy to follow along, get a refresher and would be easy in theory to teach kids with however I would recommend fully reading each book by the Workman before handing them to your kids as there may be typos like; water is (CO2) not (H2O) in the Chemistry book but it's correct in the biology book and it doesn't cover everything which I wouldn't expect it to for the price. If you look at the 1-3 Star reviews they mention a few they believe are typos unfortunately they don't mention what pages they are on or show the full page, Some commented that it says the Protons are Negative, my copy states it correctly (Picture above) I have found some of the other pages people were talking about and taken pictures with the page number included. Some books like the Biology book talk about LGBTQ+ genders (in pictures above) and the English Language Arts books has non-binary pronouns I haven't heard of. I don't problem with the LGBTQ community but it's a topic I would like to talk with my child about myself when I choose is the best time not learn it from a school book at random. According to reviews on the History book it is biased as it makes it sound like the Nazis weren't targeting the Jews among many other historical issues and never mentions anything women have done). I intend to have someone more proficient in Chemistry review the book for errors, I will update more than.

My nephew was struggling to understand his chemistry class for home schooling. He has been failing quizzes and tests. I got this book because the reviews were outstanding on every site I checked. In one hour, my nephew picked up more than he had in three weeks of classes. He was so discouraged but now already has a lot more confidence with the subject. Those reviews are well earned. I wish I had gotten this book for him weeks ago!

8th Grade Homeschool Review: As a parent and homeschool educator, I've been using a set of books for 8th-grade homeschooling, and I'd like to share my thoughts. These books have proven to be a valuable resource in our homeschool journey. They provide a solid foundation for various subjects, covering a wide range of topics essential for 8th-grade students. What I appreciate most about these books is their comprehensive approach. They offer a well-structured curriculum that allows students to delve into subjects such as mathematics, science, literature, and history. The content is clear, and the exercises and activities help reinforce the learning process. However, it's worth noting that while these books are fantastic as guides, they might not provide all the answers. As with any educational materials, there may be moments when students need additional support or clarification. In such cases, we've found supplemental videos and other educational resources to be incredibly helpful. The combination of these books and supplementary materials has been the key to a well-rounded education. Subnote: This review is intended to serve as a general overview for all the books I'm currently using for 8th-grade homeschooling. If any of the books stand out, either for their exceptional quality or shortcomings, I will provide a more detailed review for that specific book. It's all about ensuring that our homeschooling experience is as enriching as possible.

I have read this notebook from the first page to the last page. To be honest, some topics are explained very clearly. But some explanations are difficult to follow. And this notebook mainly cover basic chemistry concepts. It would be better if future editions can include more in-depths explanations. Overall, It is not expensive. I still think it is worth buying.

This book is amazing! The main reason I bought this book was that, i am studying for my doctor degree in pharmacy and there is a lot of concept that i don’t remember because its been a while. This book help you understand the basics and it get you to a higher level of knowledge in chemistry. Its doesn’t matter if you have a degree in biology with a minor in chemistry like me or you want to learn chemistry. Doesn’t matter the circumstances, you will learn easy and fast.

I am a freshman taking 10th grade Chemistry, and this is very helpful to help solidify the information! I plan on reading the designated section after I read the textbook to help me process what I have just read. The illustrations are very fun! As someone who highlights all of my notes, I appreciate that they do that too!

I am almost 60 and bought this book to learn about chemistry without realizing it was geared towards high schoolers. I decided to read it anyway and am finding it really good. This book is a bargain at twice the price.

Excellent purchase. Wish they issue more books on other.topics like high school

These books by this author are excellent! I have purchased most of them to help my kids understand basic concepts for each subject. They are very easy to follow and understand. I love the formatting of the books.

Il libro è ben fatto. Ho apprezzato tantissimo la suddivisione delle pagine con sistemi colorati e nozioni semplificate. Io l'ho acquistato in aggiunta al volume dedicato a matematica come ausilio al mio metodo per le ripetizioni. Trovo che il volume di matematica sia però più completo, in un certo senso. Mi sento comunque di raccomandarlo come valido aiuto allo studio per i concetti di chiave della materia.

Livro excelente!

Gives a good basic idea of chemistry. It's also a valuable book if one already knows more about Chemistry to refresh one's memory.
