Adventures in the World Around Me – Level K

The adventures of Gideon and his beloved teddy bear, Mr. Snuggly, make learning about science delightful for your kindergarten student. This homeschool curriculum leads your little one in learning about taste, hearing, and discovering things about God and themselves.

Adventures in the World Around Me Level K offers a simple way for young students to begin to understand science and the methods we use to explain it. Along the way, students will marvel at the greatness of God and His amazing creation! This course includes:

• Engaging stories from Gideon about his learning adventures
• Simple activities and crafts to strengthen the student’s understanding of the topics
• Bible verses to connect real-world concepts to biblical truths

This interactive science curriculum gives students the opportunity to stop and answer questions in the text. The course explores questions such as:

• What are the five senses?
• How can I take care of myself and God’s creation around me?
• What is a habitat?
• When did God create the sun, moon, and stars?
• Why do we have daytime and nighttime?
• How do fossils form?

Students will be able to answer these questions and many more as they investigate their way through God’s creation. Let’s Talk Science: Adventures in the World Around Me will encourage your student’s curiosity with hands-on fun that is easy for you to lead.
