My son loves Uzinggo science so much that I save it for the last thing he does each day. He is so motivated to get to Uzinggo science that he stays on task, sometimes wanting to skip to lunch! And using Uzinggo couldn't be any easier for me! Even better: he retains what he learns! I got a mini lesson on boiling and condensation points while preparing diner the other day

Uzinggo is a fantastic tool to "see" science and math. Our homeschool children were always up for a session. It helps them visualize some relatively difficult concepts. The lessons are short enough to fill in gaps between"paper courses". Worksheets are available if needed. Grades and course percentage completion are easy to find. Uzinggo is really an excellent tool to use; I just wished there was a syllabus to view.

We have been using Uzinggo Science for our middle and high school kids and we are so impressed with the way the program works. Each lesson looks and feels like a science experiment! It brings science lessons to life.

Our son (14 yrs old) loves the interactive lessons and labs of the High School program. He's more than willing to do multiple lessons in a day. Out of the different curriculum and programs we've tried it's much more interesting and interactive.

I got Uzinggo for my oldest to use as a fun way to supplement our science and math with extra practice. My youngest jumped on when he saw the fun his brother was having. I'm having to restrict the time spent on it or they would be spending a lot of their free time Uzinggoing (verb at our home). It is music to my ears to here, "Mom, did you know..."

We have used Uzinggo for 2 weeks now. My daughter likes being rewarded with zinggots for completing each lesson and looks forward to building avatars. This reward system is a motivator for her and I am not getting any complaint that science is boring.
Uzinggo has saved me hours of lesson preparation time. The quality of the animation is very good. No doubt my daughter prefer doing the experiments in a real lab instead of doing them virtually. But this is probably the best option for our home school.

The traditional textbook and worksheet route did NOT work for daughter #2. Found Uzinggo middle school science on the Homeschool Buyer's Co-op and it was right up her alley. The visuals and the experiments that allow her to use the mouse to manipulate "chemicals" and see the result (with no mess!) work well for her active mind and body.
This "non-traditional" approach to science puts the ball in my child's court. She can do as many "zing-paths" as she wants each day. She prints out the Activity Sheets and answers the questions as she ...(more)

I have an eight year son who loves Uzzingo. I truly didn't think that when I signed up for this program he would be begging me to do it. He loves getting points so he can then play his games and doesn't realize how much he's learning in the process. One small clip after the next and the day is filled with many in depth questions. Thanks so much for providing a great learning environment for the kids and most importantaly, making it fun. (Melanie and Brian, Fairfax VA)

My son loves Uzinggo! The lessons are nicely put together. They are not too childish nor too adult-ish. The lessons seem to flow nicely. The first con is that it is annoying to have to go into each individual lesson to find the pages to print for each lesson. I think it would be very helpful to the teacher/parent to have all the printables located in one place. The other con is the lesson details do not say how long each lesson is. I had to dig around the website to find that information and write it down so that I would know how many lessons t...(more)

My 10th grade daughter has Asperger's syndrome and upon looking for another math curriculum that is different than the one she is currently using, she has specifically asked for a similar program to Adaptive curriculum that she had used in the past. I am so glad to find Uzinggo from Homeschool Buyers Coop because it is the specific answer to my daughter's request, made by the same company as her former curriculum. When she did the trial program, she asked for the science as well. Now she enjoys math and chemistry, which were both challenging to...(more)
