Product Description

 

The Age 8-10 curriculum constitutes one year of academic instruction in science, social studies, language arts, and math.

 

In the Age 8-10 curriculum, your child will explore all subject areas using a hands-on and investigative approach. Oftentimes, homeschoolers are only taught reading, writing, and math during the early years, but a truly comprehensive curriculum will expose them to science and social studies as well. These subjects can be the most engaging and exciting for a young child. The curriculum is also filled with quality literature to enjoy with your child.

 

The Age 8-10 level of curriculum covers science, social studies, and language arts. In language arts, this takes the form of literature units. This enables your child to learn all of his language arts content in an engaging format that centers around interesting stories and characters. We continue to tie in science and social studies, but instead of doing this within each lesson, we do it thematically. When children study Native Americans in social studies, they will be reading a book that relates a story of interactions between early American settlers and Native Americans. When they are learning about simple machines in science, they read a story that shows the use of these tools by a race of genetically modified rodents. As students learn about the cultures of Asia, Europe, and Africa, they will be reading stories from those cultures.

 

The curriculum is built around four core concepts (Interdependence, Force and Power, Similarities and Differences, Exploration and Survival), each explored over a 9-week period. Each concept is broken down into three 3-week units, with each unit containing roughly 10 lessons and a final project. By following a daily lesson from each subject area, you can complete the curriculum in about a year.
