When our kids were young, it was easy to teach them the alphabet and how to count. As the years pass, certain subjects become more difficult to teach. It can be easy to be intimidated by certain subjects—like the sciences.
We love our experiments and books but thats enough for a complete science class. We really enjoy learning facts and exploring the world around us with a good curriculum.
This year, I’m excited to introduce you to Journey Homeschool Academy — they have online science curriculum that will help solve your science woes! Check out the exciting courses they have to offer:
Earth Science Explored Elementary
Experience Astronomy Elementary
Earth Science Explored (Middle School)
Experience Astronomy (Middle School)
Experience Biology (High School)
Experience Chemistry (High School)
Experience Astronomy (High School)
Why Journey Homeschool Academy?
You, the parent, don’t have to be the expert: The instructors, Luke and Trisha Gilkerson, will do all the teaching for you (via video).
It’s integrative: the courses include integration with history, literature, and even the Bible.
It’s interactive: in astronomy, your student will get outside on a weekly basis to take notes or draw specific observations in the sky; in biology and chemistry they’ll conduct several lab experiments each month—something that used to be reserved only for kids in classrooms. And in Earth Science they’ll get their hands dirty exploring rocks, minerals, earthquakes, and more!
From the comfort of home: all the required activities can be done online + in your home.
Christian emphasis: the subject of science is studied through a Christian worldview. In Biology, the courses help students think critically about how the Bible and science address evolutionary theory, which they’ll encounter throughout their lives.
Sure, you could throw a boring textbook at your kids this year.
…but when you sign up for Journey’s science courses, you’ll be fostering a love of science and encouraging them to explore the subject in a fresh, exciting way. This is solid science education developed by—and for—homeschoolers.
Have a great year!
