STARTER SCIENCE
Like history, Starter Science is presented in an experiential manner. The most basic of basic scientific ideas are presented and explored by the student. The methods used in Science and History are identical. Science should be done two times a week, and each semester will consist of multiple courses to be done in sequence. For example, the first semester consists of three courses, dealing with the ability to observe, to determine the difference between fact and opinion, and the nature of cause and effect. These are bottom-line understandings one must have to start to learn modern science. The exercises are fun and creative, and keep the student active.

Science I - Observation & Differentiation Lessons which help the student understand the bottom line basic of science, that one must observe and differentiate to understand. |

|
Science IV - Earth's Oceans & Waters This fun course is filled with photos and links to interesting films about water on Earth. |
