Most students look forward to the hands-on science experiments, labs, and STEM projects they encounter in science class. I’ve never heard a student ask me with anticipation if we were reading and answering comprehension questions for class. It just doesn’t happen. They want to know if we get to blow something up or watch something bubble and gurgle. Students wonder when we are going to grow mold or test some wild posing question we watched on MythBusters. When students ask me with a sense of excitement, “What are we doing today?” They aren’t asking me to read to them. So, when a student wants to know more about those fun Science Experiments, labs, and STEM projects, I love to be able to say, “Yes, we are doing one of those today!”

Since I have not created separate pages for all of our Science Experiments, Labs, & STEM, some of them are entwined within science unit studies. For example, in our Owl Unit Study you will find printables for an owl dissection lab and in our Properties of Magnets Unit you will find several lab sheets for investigation. Look to see if anything catches your eye!
Looking for a more permanent science curriculum? Even though we pursue various science units that encompass labs and such, we also use a science textbook each year. Some might say that our science units supplement our textbook, while others would say the opposite to be true. The labs, experiments, graphic organizers, videos, and other activities bring the textbook information to life.
We use Abeka Science textbooks. I love that they incorporate God and His sovereignty into their curriculum. When I taught in the public school system, I noticed that many of my students were lacking in vocabulary. This made it difficult for them to understand the why behind many of our investigations. Unfortunately, they were deficient in their background knowledge. Our science time would be lacking too if it weren’t for the rich vocabulary and science language that we find in our science textbook and readers.
