Getting Started with Our Curious Science Homeschool Course

The Curious Science homeschool course is a series of eighteen comprehensive unit studies designed for elementary students. The majority of the work is perfect for homeschool students in 3rd-4th grade. Each homeschool science unit also includes some activities for younger and older students as well. Through studies of pufferfish, slime eels, dung beetles, fire ants, quicksand, and more, students explore language arts, math, science, art, Bible, and history. Each Curious Science homeschool course unit study is divided into twenty daily segments but can be adjusted to meet individual schedules.
