RSO Biology 1 is a year-long, secular homeschool biology curriculum.

The unifying concepts found in RSO Biology 1 are the cell theory, the theory of evolution, genetics, and the processes used to define and describe the concept of an organism.

RSO Biology 1 begins by explaining the characteristics that non-viral organisms share. Later in the course, anatomy and physiology are taught through the lens of these characteristics.

For example, in the chapter covering how all organisms respond to their environment, students explore how those with a nervous system—like people and tardigrades—and those without one—like plants and unicellular microbes—respond to their surroundings. Connections are made, such as when students build side-by-side models of a human nervous system and a tardigrade nervous system, and differences are explained.

Age-appropriate math and labs are woven throughout the course, providing students with many opportunities to apply the scientific method and reinforce their knowledge.

The course guides elementary-age learners as they Read, Explore, Absorb, and Learn life science:

  • Read – Fun, engaging readings introduce big ideas and key details for each chapter. The text is designed to be read aloud, fostering questions and discussion.
  • Explore – Carefully crafted, hands-on experiments demonstrate science concepts. Students observe and record the subtle patterns of nature throughout the course.
  • Absorb – REAL Science Odyssey engages visual, auditory, and tactile/kinesthetic learners to help every student understand and retain key concepts.
  • Learn – With RSO Biology Level 1, you don’t just learn about our amazing natural world—you get your hands dirty and learn how science is done!

What REAL Science Odyssey Is Not

This curriculum is not:

  • A random selection of labs. It’s a fully developed, incremental homeschool science curriculum. Children will learn real life science, in the real world, using the real scientific method.
  • Dry or boring. Children will get their hands dirty! They’ll play, sing, dig, and explore outdoors, bringing concepts from the page to life.
  • Influenced by religion. All REAL Science Odyssey courses are secular and based on valid, empirical science.

Who can use RSO Biology 1?

RSO Biology 1 is an elementary science curriculum designed for grades 2–5, though it’s flexible enough to be used with middle school students.

Elementary learners are at the perfect age to explore the connectedness of life. The facts they learn at this stage form the foundation for future scientific knowledge. The connections they make support higher-level understanding through a process called metacognition.

With this in mind, RSO Biology 1 was developed around biology’s unifying theme: evolution. The goal is to provide explanations for the similarities that connect all life while also teaching about the differences between groups of organisms—and within them.

You don’t need a science background to use this homeschool curriculum! All materials are written with the science novice in mind, so you can teach confidently without extra research or preparation.

Quality shoe but with a slight squeak.
Size: 10 Wide, Color: Burgundy Polished Full Grain
Nice shoes with the classic Penny Loafer design. Fit was better than another brand I tried. Only reason not 5 starts is disappointment due to a slight squeak at times when walking.

Exact item ordered, quick delivery
Size: 9.5, Color: Black Polished Full Grain
I ordered these black Cole Haan penny loafers for casual wear with jeans, khakies, and even business casual with slacks and a jacket. They've always worked perfectly for these uses. The Cole Haan version is the most versatile and still meets my sophisticated look criteria. I wear a 9 1/2 M with almost all other shoes. I have found Cole Haan to run slightly wider and slightly shorter. This fit will work with thin and no socks and a little loose in width. . I'd likely order a 10 N next time. I tend to forget this but it runs consistent with me for Cole Haan. 5 stars for the shoe and service. My bad on the slightly off fit.

Poor quality control - maybe outlet store leftovers
Size: 11.5, Color: Burgundy Polished Full Grain
The two shoes were not the same size. They were both labeled 11 1/2 but one shoe was larger than the other and the fit was poor. I returned the first pair and ordered a replacement. This time the shoes were close to the same size but too loose and the left one has sewing issues. I've bought Johnston & Murphy for years because of the quality. These were to replace an existing pair of burgundy penny loafers that have finally worn out (even after several heal/sole replacements). That is the expected quality. I suspect Nashville Shoe Warehouse may be handling shoes that didn't measure up for the quality; more like an outlet mall than getting the J&M quality I've come to expect. Update: went to Johnston & Murphy site to buy "direct" from the manufacturer. There were several recent reviews where the shoes were long and didn't fit properly. Genesco - please step up the manufacture / crafting of these classic shoes to the level of quality they used to have.

Really nice shoes
Size: 9, Color: Black Polished Full Grain
My husband enjoys wearing these shoes. Very classy looking. They fit well. They arrived quickly. He liked them so much he ordered another pair in a different color which have worked out just as well.

Way too narrow
Size: 9.5 Wide, Color: Burgundy Polished Full Grain
I ordered a wide in this shoe, but it was still way too narrow. I had to return them. Otherwise, it looked like a nice quality shoe.
