Exploring Creation with Astronomy

Take your kids on a journey through the Universe this year!

Exploring Creation with Astronomy investigates everything in space, from the sun, the moon, the planets, comets, asteroids and meteors to stars, galaxies and space travel. Through this in-depth study, your students will be able to answer questions that stump most adults, such as how to tell a planet from a star in the night’s sky, what causes auroras, how the sun's light gives us color, why we have seasons, how and why the moon goes through phases, how to find Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter and Saturn and, most importantly, why thermonuclear fusion and short-period comets give us powerful evidence for a young earth creation model for origins.

Each of the fourteen lessons is written to the students with engaging prose that captures even the youngest child's attention.

Throughout each lesson, narration prompts encourage students to relate their new knowledge in their own words, increasing comprehension and retention. Included are creative and fun notebooking assignments, vocabulary and learning activities that further their experience with the lesson. Through experiments and projects, your students will engage in hands-on learning such as building a small, but powerful rocket, building a telescope, discovering how radar works, making a compass, as well as creating an actual model of a solar eclipse.

These and many more interesting activities and learning adventures will become part of your child’s knowledge base as they become experts in astronomy over the course of the year.

As with all the books in the Fulbright Science Series, this wonderful book includes narration prompts, notebooking assignments, review questions, projects, experiments, and an accompanying Notebooking Journal that brings all their learning, creativity and projects together in one beautiful keepsake.

Exploring Creation with Zoology 1

How do bats use echolocation? Which insects do ants keep as pets? What are the stages of complete and incomplete metamorphosis? How can you distinguish insects from other arthropods? Which Biblical writers described pterosaurs in ancient texts? How do birds find their way during the thousands of miles they travel while migrating?

Answers to these and many more fascinating questions about the flying creatures God created can be found in Zoology 1.

Your children will begin by exploring the scientific aerodynamics of flight, along with a comprehensive study of animal classification. Then they’ll soar into the exciting world of birds. Students will learn how to attract birds to their yard, identify species, and begin their own birding “Life List,” much like birders around the world.

They’ll discover fascinating information about nests and nesting habits, songs and calls, feather design, migration, and the remarkable instincts God placed within these creatures. Included are experiments using the scientific method that investigate the habits and preferences of birds in your own area.

After becoming amateur ornithologists, your children will explore the world of chiropterology, the study of bats. They’ll learn the truth about these gentle nighttime creatures and gain the knowledge to correct common misconceptions while appreciating the important role bats play in God’s creation.

Students will also investigate the ancient world of flying reptiles, such as pterosaurs, and examine the evidence suggesting a more recent extinction of these amazing creatures.

Finally, your children will become expert entomologists as they explore the incredible world of insects. They’ll learn how to classify insects by wing structure and other identifying characteristics. Through hands-on experiments with flies, crickets, darkling beetles, moths, and caterpillars, students will engage in meaningful scientific discovery.

They’ll also learn how to attract, observe, and collect insects for scientific study and will be encouraged to begin their own insect collection, much like students in many college-level life science courses.

Exploring Creation with Zoology 2

From rivers and streams to the mighty oceans, God filled the waters with animals great and small. At His Word, enormous whales sprang into being. At His command, billions of plankton leaped to life. Sea turtles, sharks, dolphins, squid, salmon, crayfish, snails, and countless other aquatic creatures joined together in the waters on the fifth day of creation.

Exploring Creation with Zoology 2 takes your family on an unforgettable journey through the wonders of the deep and shallow waters of the world. Your students will begin with whales and dolphins, then investigate seals and manatees before swimming alongside sea turtles, snakes, and salamanders. They’ll even explore the world of ancient marine reptiles such as plesiosaurs and examine the evidence surrounding these fascinating creatures.

As they continue their underwater adventure, students will discover fish and sharks, crabby crustaceans, sea snails, clams, octopuses, squid, nautiluses, corals, starfish, sea feathers, sand dollars, and even sponges that truly do clean. From microscopic plankton to the largest creatures on earth, no shell is left unturned in this exciting study of aquatic life.

Throughout the course, your student will create replicas of many of the sea creatures they study and place them into their own Ocean Box, a miniature handcrafted aquarium that becomes a treasured keepsake of their learning.

Narration prompts are woven throughout every lesson, along with engaging “Try This!” activities that bring the concepts to life through hands-on exploration. Students will experience the challenge of a sea turtle crawling onto land, measure their own teeth to estimate the size of sharks, and investigate why some animals fossilized during the Flood while others did not.

Each lesson also includes notebooking assignments, Ocean Box projects, experiments, and scientific investigations that reinforce the scientific method and deepen understanding. Students will try on blubber, test how sharks sense electrical currents, explore how whales hear sounds across oceans, and experiment to discover which creatures make the best fossils.

No matter how near or far you live from the ocean, you and your students will stand in awe of God’s creativity and power displayed in the aquatic animals He formed on the fifth day. So slip on your scuba gear and come explore with us!
