The vital resource for grading quizzes and tests from the Science Starters: Elementary General Science & Astronomy course, which includes: Two different levels of quizzes and semester tests so that you can choose the ones most appropriate for your student's age and educational abilities Master supply lists of common household items needed for the experiments. Based on the Investigate the Possibilities Series, this course comes alive through experiments that demonstrate science principles, while affirming a biblical worldview. It has been developed so multi-age students can learn together. This one-year curriculum gives easy-to-understand explanations and descriptions of scientific processes and then provides an activity using household items that applies the scientific knowledge they are learning. How big is the solar system? How big is the universe? Can we make a model to help us understand God’s wonderful creation? These and other questions are answered through a fun and investigative process created for upper elementary students!

Science Starters: General Science & Astronomy Course Description This is the suggested course sequence that allows one core area of science to be studied per semester. You can change the sequence of the semesters per the needs or interests of your student; materials for each semester are independent of one another to allow flexibility. Semester 1: General Science Investigate the Possibilities Elementary General Science - Water & Weather From the Flood to Forecasts: Semester 2: Astronomy Investigate the Possibilities Elementary Astronomy - The Universe From Comets to Constellations:

Take a few moments to look up at the glorious night sky and appreciate the majestic beauty of Gods vast universe. Astronomy is one of the most fascinating and awe-inspiring of all of the sciences, but it can be hard to find a junior high-level curriculum for it that is easy-to-use, factual, and presented from a biblical worldview. Our Introduction to Astronomy course meets all of those requirements, though, and will captivate any stargazer. Using the comprehensive, photo-filled The Stargazers Guide to the Night Sky as its base, students will soon find that the stars are just a glance away! This course will teach students the basics for how to see the stars (with or without binoculars or telescope), the times to see specific galaxies and celestial objects, and most importantly, how to determine what they are looking at during certain times of the year.

Teacher Guide for the 36-week, 9th-12th grade science course! The vital resource for grading all assignments from the Survey of Astronomy course, which includes: Facts that challenge secular theories and models of the universe - how it began and how it continues to amaze the scientific communityInformation about our universe and God’s powerful hand in His created cosmos, including how the moon could only have been placed in its orbit by an all-knowing, all-powerful Creator. OVERVIEW: The Psalmist wrote, “When I consider Your heavens, the work of Your fingers, the moon and the stars, which You have ordained, what is man that You are mindful of him, and the Son of man that You visit him?” (Ps. 8:3-6). Students taking this course will tour the universe, marveling at our galaxy through full-color star charts, easy-to-use illustrations, and even glimpses of the red supergiant star Betelgeuse over 3000 trillion miles away without the need of binoculars or a telescope. They will also be able to answer questions like: “How do phases of the moon work? When will the next solar eclipse take place? What is that bright star setting in the west? How do I find Saturn? What sorts of objects can be seen with binoculars?” These questions and many more are easily answered with the helpful tips and basic understanding of astronomy presented through the materials included in this course. Take a few moments to stand and look up at the glorious night sky, appreciating the majestic beauty of God’s vast universe. FEATURES: The calendar provides lesson planning with clear objectives, and the worksheets and quizzes are all based on the materials provided for the course.
