Science instruction doesn't have to be difficult. It doesn’t!
A solid science program works with your children's natural curiosity, following these three secrets.
1. First use gorgeous, full-color, real books which keep children curious. Eager students learn—and retain—more information.
2. Second, explore science with simple experiments that demonstrate the scientific method is natural and exciting. Ask questions and find answers through experiments like this one—create a litmus test in your kitchen:
blog.sonlight.com/ph.html.
3. Rotate topics for maximum interest, rather than dragging through the same study week after week. This spiral model of learning reinforces information over time. One exposure isn't enough for mastery, and a whole year on a topic grows stale. But learning about a range of scientific inquiry over the course of a year, and then returning to some of those topics in new ways in years to come, fosters a multi-textured understanding.
Of course, it can be hard to find the time or motivation to do science.
That’s where
Sonlight’s literature-rich homeschool curriculum comes in.
The
Sonlight team reviews hundreds of science books to find the best-of-the-best. Then they schedule these books into manageable, daily readings. They write extensive notes and create full-color, age-appropriate worksheets, with separate answer keys. And
Sonlight even includes a science supply kit, so you don't have to track down odd items!
Don’t struggle with science any longer. Come enjoy
