This engaging, Science course combines BookShark’s signature, literature-based approach with national standards. Through captivating literature and experiments, our highly academic program utilizes crosscutting concepts to unify the study of science and engineering through common application.
Science B students will learn about light and sound waves, animal life and survival, the solar system, and engineering design.
The literature includes a vivid, fully illustrated children's encyclopedia that covers geology, the human body, animal life, and technology. In addition, students will read vibrant, fascinating picture books covering light waves, sound waves, and how to stave off illness. They will enjoy adventures through the body and outer space while reading highly entertaining story books from The Magic School Bus series. The literature is completed with the interactive, Working With Materials book and a captivating biography on Louis Pasteur.
Experiments range from: constructing and testing an air balloon rocket, building a floating boat, assembling a bird's nest, and much more!

Can I use this package for both of my children?
Yes, you can! If your children are within three years of age, they can share the same BookShark Science package. Please note that you will need an extra set of Science B Student Activity Sheets for each additional student (one set is included with the Instructor's Guide).
Can my students share the Science Supplies Kit?
Yes! If your students are willing to work together as lab partners, they can share the resources in the Science Supplies Kit B. You may want a second kit if you prefer that each student perform every experiment, or if you have more than two scientists sharing the Science package.

The decision to homeschool our daughter, Alexa, was an easy one. Choosing a curriculum that worked well with her goals and schedule was a little more difficult.
