How to Choose the Best Science and Reading Materials
Selecting instructional materials for science and reading
that build on a child's natural wonder, while supplementing
a good academic program, requires careful consideration.
The best materials will foster a feeling of discovery in the
child, but at the same time, they will include instruction
that expands on the child's basic understanding of the
world. |

Solve Problems Like A Scientist
Scientists solve problems in much the same way that you do - through making observations, asking questions, taking a guess, and experimenting so that eventually they might come to a conclusion that can be shared with others. |

An Innovative Resource for the Teaching of Human Anatomy
and Physiology
What is one of the most intriguing, awe-inspiring subjects
we can teach our children? Science! Whether we're sitting in
a lawn chair and looking up at the stars, learning about
cool and sometimes crazy chemical reactions, whether we're
bending light, or learning about one of the greatest
creations of all time – the human body – science can, and
should be fun. Sometimes we have the materials for study at
hand... or at least obtainable at the store. Other times, as
with the human body and its intricacies, we have technology,
and the expertise and diligent work of medical illustrators,
doctors and trained scientists to help us in our teaching
endeavors |

Homeschool Science Academy
Science education in the 6th –
12th grade years for a college-bound student requires
careful consideration. As parents, we want to choose a
direction that will foster a feeling of discovery in our
child, develop critical thinking and reasoning skills, and
one that will coincide with the values and belief system
that we hold. That's why Greg Landry provides homeschooling
students with free 45 minute online science seminars, one
and two semester online science classes, and weekend /
week-long anatomy and physiology camps, all taught from a
Christian worldview. |

Science is not a book; it's a mess!
Science – it's all around us! Every day we interact with
weather, plants, bugs, food, animals and our own bodies. Has
your child ever wondered how something works? That's
science! My daughter asked me just yesterday how turning the
steering wheel in a car can make the car change directions.
We are born into this world naturally curious, questioning
our environment and how things work. |
