This class is designed to offer your child a hands-on, interactive year of discovery and serves as a launching point into PREP's comprehensive science program. Looking through a biblical lens, students will develop an appreciation of God as Creator as they study Earth (solar system, weather, rocks and minerals), Life (cells, plants, animals, ecosystems), and Physical Sciences (matter, force, electricity).

The lessons will be centered around a weekly reading assignment, as well as pages to be completed in the student activity manual.  Your child will participate in class discussions, group and individual activities, STEM activities, and experiments.

Quizzes will be given after the appropriate section under the teacher’s discretion.  Tests will be given at the end of each unit.  Tests may be given at home or in  the classroom, depending on what is going on in class that week.

Required texts and materials (provided by parents): 

Please have materials in hand at least one week before classes start.

This class is designed to offer your child a hands-on, interactive year of discovery and will build a foundation for further study in upper level sciences.  Looking through a biblical lens, students will develop an appreciation of God as Creator as they study characteristics of plants, animals, the human body, energy and motion, waves, light, sound, the Earth, water and natural resources.

The lessons will be centered around a weekly reading assignment, as well as pages to be completed in the student activity manual.  Your child will participate in class discussions, group and individual activities, experiments and special projects.  Students should set aside additional time each week to prepare for regular chapter tests.

The 5th edition of Science 5 guides students through scientific reasoning and questioning using the Socratic method. Science 5 builds on the foundations of previous years in Elementary Science, while equipping students to apply science to life through observation and study.  Science 5 covers physical science, life science, earth and space science and four systems of the human body.  As with the other BJU books, Science 5 embraces a biblical worldview and has an end goal being the building of inquiry skills, vocabulary and a love for learning!

The lessons will be centered around a weekly reading assignment, as well as pages to be completed in the student activity manual.  Your child will participate in class discussions, group and individual activities, experiments and special projects.  Students should set aside additional time each week to prepare for regular chapter tests.

Prerequisite: Student must be at least 10 years old and read and write proficiently at a 5th grade level.

In Science 6, now called Exploring Science (5th Edition), your student will explore a variety of subjects in physical, life and earth sciences while discovering this amazing world God has created!

Emphasis in this new textbook will be placed on being able to understand science concepts and demonstrate how processes work.  Every chapter begins with key questions, vocabulary words ad concludes with a set of review questions at the end of each section.

Another exciting facet are the "mini labs," separate from the lab activities and explorations in the Activity / Lab Manual.  This 2 hour class will be filled with awesome learning experiences for your student.
