I feel your pain, this is my DS at 6.5, he is a bit worried that he does know more than his science teacher, or at least more than his science teacher plans to teach him!

I second the NOVA, going to lectures, science channel, all that stuff is great because it's pitched at interested adults, which means high school not detailed knowledge.

For bio interest - has she seen David MacCauley's book the way we work, it's very detailed with fabulous and funny pictures - DS devoured it because it was too hard, he worked at it, which was awesome, we did cut out the section on reproduction - it was way too graphic a picture for us to feel comfortable to give to our 6 year old. I felt so guilty cutting a book! And DS totally realizes that he is missing a critical piece of information DH resorted to I'm not ready to give you that information. DS surprisingly took it, but I digress!
