Apologia Science has been educating our Upper Level Homeschooled children for years. Now they have come out with 4 science books for the younger set. Written by Jeannie Fulbright,
EXPLORING CREATION WITH BOTANY,
EXPLORING CREATION WITH ZOOLOGY 1,
EXPLORING CREATION WITH ZOOLOGY 2 and
EXPLORING CREATION WITH ASTRONOMY are exciting young students (and their moms) everywhere.
If you are familiar with the
CHARLOTTE MASON method, you will appreciate these books. Narration and notebooking are used to encourage critical thinking, logical ordering, retention, and record keeping. Each lesson includes:
- Narrative
- Some notebook work
- An activity
- A project
Exploring Creation with Zoology is designed to be read by the parent to the student. If you have an independent learner though, it can be used independently. My experience has been that the child gets more out of it if an adult (or older sibling) is involved. It's just more fun to learn when someone else is learning with you.
Exploring Creation with Zoology 2 is a continuation of
EXPLORING CREATION WITH ZOOLOGY 1 and should be used for an entire year. This would involve 2 sessions per week, each session lasting from 30 minutes to an hour. Of course, if you want to study it for just half the year, you can spend more time each week on it.
Your child will learn some amazing things about God's creation including:
- Whales
- Dolphins
- Manatees
- Turtles
- Sea Snakes
- Salamanders
- Plesiosaraus
- Fish
- Sharks
- Crustaceans
- Sea Snails
- Clams
- Octopus
- Squid
- Nautilus
- Corals
- and much more
