Curriculum Review Considering God's Creation
Review By Harriet Yoder
Based on the creation week,
Considering
God’s Creation is a well-written multi-level science program that is neatly divided
into 36 lessons. The wonderful
teacher’s guide is indispensable, informative, and “family friendly.” The easy-to-follow lessons are designed to flow smoothly with a high
level of information for students and low level of teacher effort. This is a plus when teaching many levels at one sitting.
Reproducible student workbooks are available
giving you the option of buying extra workbooks or making copies (for single
family or single class use). Each carefully thought out lesson has accompanying work pages. The variety and quality of these work pages will keep a child’s
attention. The result is a
portfolio quality work page that demonstrates learning in science.
If you assign an older child to work with a
younger child on each lesson, they will learn to cooperate. Their hands will be kept busy while you read and teach the lesson. The “teaching” part consists of the natural discussion inspired by
the reading. This is homeschooling
at its best.
Mrs. Mortimer and Mrs. Smith successfully
incorporated the wonder of God’s creation into their Bible section. They creatively and scientifically selected scripture to support each
lesson. Armed with Bibles, you can
assign verses for each child to look up, read, and discuss.
I highly recommend Considering
God’s Creation when you are selecting science curriculum. It is a one
year program that is worthwhile to do--a homeschool classic!
Considering God's Creation was chosen by
homeschool expert and author Cathy Duffy in the science category as one of her 100 Top
Picks for Homeschool Curriculum!
