Exploring Creation with Zoology 3

What separates people from apes? How can a Great Dane be related to a Chihuahua? Is there evidence that people and dinosaurs once lived at the same time? What should you do if you encounter a bear? How can you tell whether a snake is venomous?

Come discover the answers to these questions and many more in Exploring Creation with Zoology 3!

This third and most comprehensive book in the Zoology series takes students on a safari through jungles, deserts, forests, farms, oceans, and even their own backyard. Your upper elementary students will explore, examine, and enjoy the fascinating creatures God designed on the sixth day of creation. Families will snuggle together and discover amazing animals ranging from primates to parasites, kangaroos to caimans, and turtles to terrifying Tyrannosaurus rex.

Narration prompts and engaging hands-on activities are woven throughout every lesson to bring the material to life. Students will tape their thumbs to their hands to experience life without opposable thumbs, practice what to do if they encounter a bear in the wild, fit continents together to understand animal distribution around the world, and even play tracking games that imitate how jungle animals locate prey and predators.

Throughout the course, students will also enjoy the year-long Drive Thru Animal Atlas project, adding animals to the continents where they live while strengthening geography skills and building a beautiful visual record of the creatures they study. They’ll learn to draw and identify many different kinds of animals and animal tracks as they create their own keepsake notebook of discoveries.

As with all the Apologia elementary science courses, notebooking activities are designed to deepen understanding, increase retention, and provide a meaningful record of learning. Students may create a travel brochure for an African safari, compare reptiles and amphibians, illustrate spider webs found around their home, or produce a canine newsletter highlighting fascinating facts about carnivores.

Each lesson concludes with adventurous projects, activities, and experiments that reinforce scientific concepts through hands-on exploration. Students may dissect an owl pellet to reconstruct a rodent skeleton, capture animal tracks in their yard, participate in simulated population studies, and create animal trivia games that review everything they’ve learned in a memorable and exciting way.

One of the most powerful features of this course is the many Creation Confirmations woven throughout the text. These sections highlight zoological discoveries and animal characteristics that point powerfully to a young-earth, God-designed model of creation. By the end of the course, your students will not only have a deeper understanding of the animal kingdom, but also a stronger and more confident faith in God as Creator.
