Description

Delivering an enthralling and captivating first look at science, this creation-based program offers engaging textual information, hands-on investigations, biblically-inspired stories, opportunities to engage your child in meaningful discussions, Bible memory work (with hand actions), and even an easy-to-do Science Notebook. The entire program is packed into a very user-friendly, one volume course. Learn about the topic, Experience the topic, and Share what you've learned with others make up the three lessons (about 20-minutes each) for each of thirty-six weeks concluding with a Certified Science Explorer certificate. Learn lesson days incorporate textual information, stories (a section called Imagine That!), and a short exercise sheet that concludes with Discussion Starters. These are prompts to help you recall the lessons as well as bridge to biblical applications. Stories are based on biblical events and people (Adam and Eve in Level 1) but include fictional elements. Experience days are designed for fun with activities that illustrate concepts introduced in the Learn section. For instance, the chapter on static electricity uses balloon generated static electricity to power a race with aluminum cans. Share days include a pull-out activity page(s) for a science notebook the student builds over the year. These include a section called Let's Memorize, which provides a Bible verse along with actions to help with memorization. Required supplies include common household items and easily sourced items including flashlight, glass prism, paint brush, Mason Jar, balloon, Play-Doh®, food coloring, magnifying glass, glow stick bracelet or glow in the dark paint, and craft supplies. There are also some recommended resources for families wanting to go deeper: When You See A Rainbow (#078385), Aquarium Guide (out-of-print) and Created Cosmos DVD (item 057182). Colorfully illustrated, student pages are reproducible for your family. Uses NIV and NIrV Bible versions.
