Discover! General Science 2 How do living things depend on one another? What causes objects to move? How does energy change forms, and what forces shape the Earth beneath our feet? Discover! General Science 2 helps students investigate these questions through a broad study of life, physical, and Earth science. This full-year homeschool curriculum explores ecosystems and the balance of nature, matter, energy, force, motion, electromagnetism, simple machines, and geology. Through colorful student worktexts, your child will examine how the natural world operates, from microscopic particles and energy transfer to the large-scale systems that shape life on Earth. The course combines engaging readings, hands-on activities, mini-labs, and real-world applications to help students connect scientific concepts to everyday experiences. As your child works through the lessons, he'll strengthen critical-thinking, observation, analysis, and problem-solving skills while developing a deeper understanding of scientific principles. The program includes two student worktexts, a lab book, an Instructor Guide, and an assessment booklet. Lab activities provide opportunities for practical investigation, while assessments allow students to demonstrate understanding through traditional evaluations, projects, or performance-based activities. Designed specifically for homeschool families, Discover! General Science 2 provides clear instruction, meaningful hands-on experiences, and flexible teaching support. By the end of the course, your child will have developed a strong foundation in general science and be well prepared for more advanced high school science studies.
