Is
this a full science curriculum for K-8?
The Great
Science Adventures is a full science curriculum, not just a supplement.
We recommend one book from each of the three areas of study (Earth,
Life, and Physical) for a complete year of curriculum.
How can
a book cover K-8?
Through our unique format, each book has
materials and learning activities geared for the different grade
levels.
We use pencil icons or pictures to show the teacher which tasks
to do with a particular age group. One pencil is for K-2, two
pencils for grades 3 - 5, and three pencils for grades 6 - 8.
What is
a Graphic Organizer?
A 3-D Graphic
Organizer is a student or teacher made paper object that visually
represents or explains the material learned by the student. Our
Great Science Adventures series is built upon these important
teaching devices and Dinah Zike is the leader in using 3-D graphic
organizers, having invented over 100 of them.
Do I have
to buy student books?
No. The student
material is included in the Lots of Science Library Book pages
within each book. These can be photocopied freely.
What is
required for one year of science teaching?
Great Science
Adventures is a full science curriculum, not just a supplement.
We recommend one book from each of the three areas of study (Earth,
Life, and Physical) for a complete year of curriculum.
Is the Great Science Adventures series
Christian in content and philosophy?
The Great Science Adventures series contains only scientific
facts. It does not include any references to origin. For example,
Earth is described simply as the third planet from the Sun. No
information is given as to how Earth was created, how long it has
existed, etc.
Great Science Adventures is a hands-on science curriculum that
will allow your students to learn about the world around them.
Students and teachers alike tell us that it is fun, simple, and
extremely effective.
