Christian Kids Explore Chemistry
We are on our third year of the Christian Kids Explore Science Series. We’ve completed Biology and Space and Earth Science. Now we’re moving on to Chemistry.
These books are in the perfect format for our family. Narrative style lessons, vocabulary words and definitions in the margins, review questions at the end of each lesson, and coordinating hands-on activities (with more simple alternatives for younger children). Each unit also has wrap-up review questions. The appendix offers coloring pages, additional resource lists (books, science kits, biographies and list of notable chemists to research), and answer keys.
I appreciate how flexible this book is for our studies. Our study method is very similar to the way we approach history with The Story of the World. We read all the lessons and review orally. We use science vocabulary for handwriting copy work. We complete some of the activities. We often use related science DVDs and books during the week.
You can use this science series with a broad range of ages, expecting more rigorous work depending on the student.
