The Universe in My Hands program is designed to provide students with the key to understanding the design and structure of the universe in its entirety. By organizing the material world by size, The Universe in My Hands classifies the universe in a meaningful way, much in the same way that a timeline organizes history. Whether your child is interested in insects, quarks, or spiral galaxies, The Universe in My Hands connects their subject of interest with the rest of the universe, providing them with the solid foundation they will need as they embark on in-depth science studies in the grades ahead. By the end of this program your child will truly feel “at home” in the universe.
Program consists of a 254-page Text and 49 color-coded dividers for creating a unique science notebook. Students will use this notebook to organize the universe and its contents by magnitude and the discipline that studies them (math, physics, chemistry, biology, geology and meteorology, planetology, astronomy, and cosmology). This hands-on program is not a textbook, but a foundational course that engages your students and ignites in them an enthusiasm for all natural science. Answer key included.
New edition of The Universe in My Hands . . . three times the size! Included are five all-new interlude chapters in which the method of organization by magnitudes is demonstrated on specific objects. This edition also includes a wealth of new information, drawings, exercises, questions and answers, research ideas, worksheets, tests, and resources. In a word, more teacher support for the same low price.
The 2009 edition carries the Imprimatur of Bishop Paul Swain of South Dakota. You can be assured that Mary Daly's thoughtful assessment of creation, from the Periodic Table to the Big Bang, is fully compatible with faithful Catholicism.
For additional students, the dividers are also available separately.
