I love how well organized and useful everything in this room is ❤️ Have you added a foreign language to your routine yet? We would love to partner up with you!
Ohhhh.....do you use Building Foundations of Scientific Understanding? I saw that and RSO on your shelves. I'm torn between the both of them and can't decide. What are your thoughts on them?
Building Foundations of Scientific Understanding is a great tool to use to build foundations in science. It's geared toward k-2 and gives a foundation in matter (solids, liquids, gases, magnets, dissolving), life science (plant and animal science), physical science (energy, kinetic/potential energy, friction), and earth and space science (day/night, landforms, drawing maps). I feel like you can use this book as a foundation/spine and if you have older children participating, then expand with more books/videos/activities from a quick online search. There are 41 lessons. So you can easily make these last 2 years if you wanted to delve deeper or just take more time on each subject. He also starts with a chapter on how children learn and how it should affect your teaching of them, especially in the area of science. This is a book I'm glad I have on my shelf. RSO is good too, but we only have earth and space science. Good for the a bit older crowd (worksheets and such). But I think BFSU is a must have for the under 9 crowd.
Thank you!!!
