Teaching Method
Traditional
Teacher-centered curriculum commonly used in classrooms that may include a text, teacher manual, tests, etc.
Charlotte Mason
A methodology based on the work of a 19th century educator who maintained that children learn best from literature (Living Books), not textbooks.
Classical
A methodology based on the Latin Trivium (three stages of learning), including the grammar stage (memorization and facts), logic stage (critical thinking), and rhetoric stage (developing/defending ideas).
Unit Study
A thematic or topical approach centered around one topic that integrates multiple subject areas.
Montessori (Discovery)
A methodology based on the work of a 20th century educator that emphasizes student and sensory-driven discovery learning and real-life applications.
Other
Other methodologies
Religious Content
Secular
Contains content contrary to common Christian beliefs (i.e. evolution).
Neutral
Avoids religious or theoretical topics or presents multiple viewpoints without preference.
Christian/Religious
Faith-based or including instructional religious content.
Learning Modality
Auditory
Learns through listening, talking out loud or reading out loud.
Visual
Learns through seeing, prefers written instructions and visual materials.
Kinesthetic/Tactile (Hands-On)
Learns through moving, doing and touching.
Multi-Sensory
Curriculum that employ a variety of activities/components.
Presentation
Sequential
Curriculum progresses through well-defined learning objectives. Emphasizes mastery before moving to the next topic.
Spiral
Topics and concepts are repeated from level to level, adding more depth at each pass and connecting with review.
Conceptual/Topical

Description
Using a biblical approach to understanding God's world, this BJU 6th edition course divides equally into 2 chemistry and 2 physics units. Chemistry units discuss chemical reactions, nuclear changes, solutions, acids and bases. Physics units discuss movement of matter and energy. Students will complete case studies, worldview activities, analyze samples, use data to make and test models, and complete STEM and inquiry-based labs. Needed lab materials are listed in the Teacher Lab Manual.
Publisher's Description of Physical Science Assessments 6th Edition
This packet includes a formative assessment for each section and 22 summative assessments to measure students' knowledge and understanding of key concepts. All questions are aligned with educational objectives.
Category Description for Bju Press Science

With so many secular materials infused with evolution, it's sometimes difficult to find solid science materials that are based on Creationism. Bob Jones Science is thoroughly Christian, including many evidences and support of Creationism and many "holes" in the theory of evolution, particularly at the upper grade levels. Vital to the program are the student activities, or labs. The scientific method is emphasized as children participate on hands-on activities and experiments throughout the curriculum. The junior high and high school levels are full-blown laboratory science courses, complete with a separate lab manual. Experiments are excellent, but some of them require unique materials or are difficult to do in a home environment. The revised texts are more home-friendly, though, and Bob Jones also offers a Lab Manual Supplement for home schoolers, containing tips for doing lab activities in smaller groups. We have used many of these upper level texts in our home school. We also have accumulated a wealth of laboratory equipment and supplies over the years, which has made the lab work easier. I have sometimes substituted labs from Experiences in Biology and Experiences in Chemistry (from Castle Heights - see index) where it's been too difficult to use a particular lab. Bob Jones has made it easy to obtain lab materials and chemicals (you can order almost anything you need for their courses on the Science Lab Materials Order Form), but some labs are still pretty complex for a home environment, requiring a lot of set-up and preparation time. For each grade level, essential materials are listed first, followed by asterisked (*) supplemental support materials. Support items used at multiple grade levels are at the end.


Category Description for Bju Press Secondary Levels

There is more evaluation of science and its relationship to Scripture at the upper levels, and biblical Creationism is presented as truth. Teacher's editions contain reduced student text pages on the same page with teacher instructions, notes, and answers.

Category Description for Bju Press Physical Science

Revised in 2014, this course presents integrated physics and chemistry within a Christian worldview. The text covers introductory chemistry,introductory physics, and the metric system, laying the groundwork for upper-level laboratory courses. The student text includes colorful illustrations and readable explanations. Compared to the previous edition, it shifts the emphasis toward a more thorough understanding of keyconcepts with less emphasis on mathematical computation. Teacher's Edition contains a reduced-size full-color student text, with teaching hints, helpful explanations, and answers to all review questions. Student Laboratory Manual uses hands-on experiments to reinforce concepts presented in the text. It has been significantly revised to include many new andengaging lab activities, with several incorporating state-of-the-art data acquisition technology. Lab Manual Teacher's Edition is essentially thesame with answers and teaching information overprinted.
