Homeschooling Illinois - Legislation and Learning (HILL). Thursday, February 09, 2006. The Story of Science. Last night, after our Girl Scout meeting at a local bookstore, I purchased the Story of Science: Aristotle Leads the Way for my seventh grader. I was poking around on the internet looking for teaching resources and found an errata page for the book. You can find it here. I was unable to find any teaching materials for this book. If anyone knows of any please drop me an email or a comment.
