What's in the Textbook? A Systematic Introduction To
Science
This course is designed to be a
systematic introduction to science and covers the following topics in broad terms: |
- The Scientific Method
- Designing Experiments
- Archaeology
- Geology
- Paleontology
- Biology
- Human Anatomy
- Human Physiology
|
| The course is
not intended to be a focused study of these topics. Rather, this course introduces
students to these topics and to the organized study of science. Since it is a students
first introduction to science, we recommend it as a 7th or 8th grade course depending on
the student. This curriculum gives students a scientific education that will
help him or her make a reasoned defense of the Christian Faith.
There are 16 modules (chapters) in this course. You can divide the course into
four quarters, which works out to four modules per quarter. Each quarter should take
you nine weeks to complete, so you should shoot for finishing a module every two weeks or
so. If you do that, each quarter will take you 8 weeks. Thus, you have about a week
of flexibility time with each quarter.
The course is a 2 volume set made up of the Exploring Creation With
General Science student text, which contains all student material,
on-your-own questions and solutions, laboratory exercises, and chapter study guides. Color
photos and illustrations.
The second book is a softbound solutions and tests manual, which contains the
answers to the chapter study guides, tests, and test solutions. Printed in black and
white.
No Laboratory equipment comes with this
course. This course uses household items for all labs. Lab supplies needed for each
module are listed in the front of the textbook for your convenience. |

What Parents Are Saying
Here are some comments we have received from the students and parents who have used
this course:"I
love this course. I really appreciate the apologetics throughout -- the way you teach the
student to think. I’m learning too!"
-- parent
"My daughter (without having read a word) declared on the first day of school,
‘I hate science and I don’t want to do this’ . . .
By the end of the first section she admitted that the bread mold was kinda cool . . . we
did the first experiment and she thought it was ‘totally cool’ and her report
indicate[d] that she understood what happened and the purpose for the experiment. . . She
wanted to know if this science book had more experiments and when I told her that it did,
she decided that science this year might not be too bad. I thought you would enjoy this
conversion story." -- parent
"My daughter has never really enjoyed science, but now she can hardly wait until the
next modules come! She was watching for UPS for three days before these last ones
came." -- parent
"I just wanted to let you know how much I
really enjoyed Module 8 Uniformitarianism and Catastrophism . . . It has been my favorite
module so far . . . Thank you for writing such a neat textbook." -- student
"What a God-send in this day in age...and an answer to one of my prayers for my
children! I have felt privileged all year to be using this material. I can
only thank you again for allowing the Lord to work through you in this way. You are
an instrument of declaring HIS truth and wisdom. May He richly bless
you..."--parent
"I just want to say AGAIN how thrilled I am to have discovered your curriculum.
My daughter and I are immensely enjoying studying the material. My daughter
loves her science! I am so thrilled with the added teaching that is training her to
be able to defend her faith from an evidence point of view."--parent
"I thought the section on Simple Machines was
excellent compared to how it is done in some other textbooks. Keep up the good work!"
