Science in the Scientific Revolution Science in the Scientific Revolution follows the discoveries, debates, and experiments that transformed science between 1543 and the late 1600s. Through more than 90 lessons, your child will meet the thinkers who challenged old assumptions, asked new questions, and helped lay the foundation for modern scientific understanding. Written from a Christian worldview, the course highlights many of the scientists who viewed scientific investigation as a way to better understand God's creation. Along the way, your child will explore topics such as astronomy, anatomy, microbiology, fossils, probability, motion, and mathematics while learning how scientific thinking developed during this pivotal period in history. Every lesson includes a hands-on activity designed to bring the concepts to life. Your child might investigate probability with coins, model population estimates using candy, explore the mechanics behind seat belts, examine the structure of the human body, or discover how early scientists made sense of the natural world. The activities help transform scientific ideas from historical facts into experiences your child can observe, test, and discuss. The colorful hardcover text presents complex topics through short, conversational lessons supported by engaging illustrations. Three levels of review questions at the end of each lesson allow younger and older children to learn together while responding at an age-appropriate level. Parents and children use the same text, while the included Helps & Hints guide provides answers, explanations, and teaching support. Optional tests and answer keys are included for families who prefer formal assessment, and an optional lab kit simplifies preparation by supplying many of the harder-to-find experiment materials. Science in the Scientific Revolution shows your child that scientific discovery didn't happen all at once. It grew through observation, experimentation, debate, and perseverance. By studying the people behind the discoveries, he gains a deeper appreciation for both the process of science and the God who created a world worth exploring.
