This 3rd Edition of Exploring Creation with Physical Science course was completely rethought and rewritten with your student in mind. This is not the same as 2nd Edition and covers more physical science information. The text discusses atomic structure, periodic table, chemical bonds, reactions and energy, motion, forces, energy, waves and sound, light, electricity and magnetism, and Earth's structure, weathering, and atmosphere.

This course is designed to be the last science course the student takes before high school biology. We generally recommend it as an 8th-grade course, but students can use it for their 9th-grade coursework. Exploring Creation with Physical Science, 3rd Edition, Basic Set includes the Student Textbook and the Solutions and Tests Manual.

In Exploring Creation with Physical Science, 3rd Edition, we continue to mentor middle school students with the process of note-taking through the use of colorful prompts that help your students learn what information is important to pull from the textbook.

What's inside the 3rd Edition:

-Coverage of chemistry, physics, and Earth science to help students gain a solid foundation to confidently complete high school level courses
-"Think About This" sections to help your student make a connection between science and the Creator
-ALL updated experiments with lab reports
Rich graphics to help present and reinforce information and concepts in a visual way
-A suggested schedule in the front of the Student Notebook and detailed schedule at the beginning of each lesson
-Detailed to-do list at the start of each lesson to help your student plan their assignments and work more independently
-Optional “You Do Science” activities that are quick and easy, designed to help students truly comprehend the concepts they are learning
-Tests provided for each module, however, students are given many study helps via their student notes within the -Student Notebook and Study Guide questions once they complete a module
-Complete step-by-step grading rubrics for parents, showing how to calculate a module grade from the student's module test, lab work, and character displayed throughout the module

A typical week requires studying science for about 1 hour a day for 4 days.

Laboratory exercises are conducted throughout each module so that students have a hands-on lab component in their scientific study. These have been designed to work easily in the homeschool environment.

At the end of each of the 15 modules, which take about 2 weeks each to complete, there are Study Guides to help students review their materials before taking their exams. Detailed answers to these questions are provided in the Solutions and Tests Manual.

Experiments, Hands-On Activities, and Topics in Exploring Creation with Physical Science, 3rd Edition

~There are even more hands-on activities than the previous editions. In addition to the required experiments, we've added optional "You Do Science" sections that are quick and easy activities to help students truly comprehend the concepts they are learning.
~There are 36 experiments and 17 "You Do Science" activities.
~While students complete all experiments, only one formal lab report is required per module. Students are instructed on both informal and formal lab report writing techniques and will document all of their work in their notebooks. Don't worry, we walk through and explain every step and why it is essential!
