The Parent-Teacher Edition provides scripted teacher lessons that teach important vocabulary and encourage discussion directly from the Scriptures. Hebrew words and cross-references are studied each week. Lessons follow our "Hear, Learn, Keep, Do" method, as you discuss important science topics together, then reinforce learning with online activities, videos, and hands-on demonstrations and experiments. The scientific method is emphasized throughout.
The companion notebooks are essential and are designed to help students what is learned in daily discussions.
Lessons match Science for Littles (K-3) (available in a Homeschooling Torah membership), so that the entire family can learn together. A variety of activities for multiple ages means that families will read together, study together, and grow together… making life easier for parents and simplifying your homeschooling day.
