Investigate the Universe and Its Components
Some time back we hosted a five-year-old boy who, having never lived through one, found the idea of earthquakes fascinating. We were scratching our heads on how to explain this incredible God-based wonder; if only we had first read Christian Kids Explore Earth & Space. It would have graphically shown him what an earthquake is all about and even what can be done to make our structures more earthquake-proof.
Hurricanes, Glaciers, Volcanoes, Planets...
That is just one of twenty-four fascinating topics covered in this book. Others include hurricanes, glaciers, volcanoes, planets, and more. Christian Kids Explore Earth & Space consists of preplanned lessons and easy-to-do experiments, including making edible sedimentary rock, a glacier, a tornado in a bottle, and a rain gauge.
As Effortless as We Have Ever Seen!
Everything is reproducible, making this a very cost-effective program. Each of the twenty-four lessons is easy to teach and fascinating to learn. This book contains thirty weeks (twenty-four lessons and six unit reviews) of science lessons for grades three to six, but can be adapted for younger children without too much effort. Most of the materials needed you will already have or can get easily. A study of the universe is an excellent introduction to God's glory, and Christian Kids Explore Earth & Space makes such a study as effortless as we have ever seen.
About the Christian Kids Explore Series
The Christian Kids Explore series contains several thirty- to thirty-five-week courses that are based on a classical and "living books" approach. Each of the straightforward lessons builds upon the last, allowing the child to develop a thorough command of the concepts. The age-appropriate, hands-on activities and experiments are not only fun, but they will actually help your child gain a solid grasp of the concepts. Each book is incredibly user-friendly, supplying suggestions for extra reading and even recommendations of topic-appropriate videos.
Christian Kids Explore Earth & Space breaks our universe into manageable bites, offering units about Earth and its structure, the lithosphere, hydrosphere, atmosphere, and weather, as well as a unit investigating the universe and its components. The twenty-four lessons and six unit reviews present the material in an easy-to-teach manner. Students are encouraged to keep a science notebook as they learn. Hands-on activities include building a model of Earth and its layers, using eggs to understand plate tectonics, and simulating a volcanic eruption. Christian Kids Explore Earth & Space guides your journey as you dive into the wonder of our universe.
