06th Grade Science

A Reason for Science teaches basic science through a fun, hands-on approach! Based on the National Science Content Standards, each weekly lesson also features a Scripture object lesson. The yearly cycle covers life, earth, and physical science. This worktext is for Grade 6. Please note: The teacher guidebooks, sold separately, are necessary to successfully use this program.)

This course is designed to be a student s first systematic introduction to the sciences. Although it can be used for eighth grade (especially if the student has recently left the public schools), it is typically used best in the seventh grade. The course covers such topics as the scientific method, designing experiments, simple machines, archaeology, geology, paleontology, biology, and human anatomy and physiology. Its scope, therefore, is quite wide. There are many hands-on experiments to do, and they all use household items. PLEASE NOTE: Because of the differences between the first and second editions, students in a group setting cannot use both. They must all have the same edition. Because of this, the first edition of the course will still be available for those individuals, schools, or support groups that use the first edition. Please contact our office to order any first edition products. This is the SOLUTIONS and TESTS MANUAL. Book is sold separately."
