Curriculum Picks, 21-22: Science

Hey Loves!

How goes it? Are you ready for more curriculum picks? I sure hope so! We are off to Science!

Last year we zipped all around the world studying Zoology with Elemental Science, The Sassafras Science Adventure Series Volume 1. We had a blast, we all came away with so many amazing animal facts and knowledge about their habitats as well.

Not to mention, the plot had us on the edge of our seats! We paired it with an animal encyclopedia (that James LOVED), sticker books, picture books, documentaries and lots of questions to our home smart devices. I purchased the digital pack offerings with teacher guides and a log book. We didn’t use the latter much but we will in the future.

It was a no brainer to continue to the next series. I mean, my kids were like, “can we get it right now?” 

I have purchased the Volume 2 audiobook, physical book, log and guide books (digital version). My goal is to have James read along with the audiobook as we will be bringing back car school (see the homeschool rhythm post coming soon). We will add some manipulatives, do some cool experiments and also keep our same companions that worked so well before-picture books, encyclopedias and documentaries.

James will also start, Exploring The Building Blocks of Science, Book 1! Read more about that in the Second Grade Curriculum post coming soon.

Science was the easiest subject to purchase this and I am not mad about it!
