Behold and See 1: On the Farm with Josh and Hanna |
Nancy Nicholson with Mary Piecynski |
As children begin to discover the astounding world that God created, they at the same time begin to uncover the mysteries of science. Rather than being at odds, these two discoveries issue from one and the same Source.
This Catholic science text presents to the child both Creation and Creator, in a context familiar to the child: the family. Activities that follow lessons reinforce and bring topics to life in little hands and minds. Through these lessons, children learn the scientific method of observing, comparing, grouping, and measuring change.
Behold and See 1 users need no additional workbooks, teacher’s manuals, or answer keys; all lessons, activities, and explanations are found within the worktext.
188 pgs. Full color. Spiral binding for ease of use. 8½"x11"

“Our son is thoroughly enjoying this science text, and so am I! The information is presented at his level of understanding, and so are the hands-on projects. The projects are easy to plan ahead for, and he is excited about doing them. I know he is learning from this text, because every now and then, out of the blue, he will draw a conclusion about some aspect of creation or life that has recently caught his attention - and relate something he learned from the text to it! I love that he is retaining and applying the lessons! The text also makes it super easy to elaborate on God's plan for all His creation, over and above what the text already includes. I, too, out of the blue, have been able to apply some of the lessons we have gone over in the past to current experiences, thus reinforcing the lessons for him.

“Behold and See Science 1 is just what my 1st grader needed with two older brothers doing a little more serious science. There is just no more simple and innocent way to experience God's world and discover science than on a farm. Taking the trip with you are two sweet children, Josh and Hanna. It is just enough science without weighing it down, but enough to explore some wonderful concepts. For the winter on the farm section, we could easily dovetail "How Animals Hibernate and Overwinter" from books at our library. A wonderful addition to the text is the What Do You Like To Do journal which is also arranged by seasons allowing you to complement the science nicely. The activities are age appropriate and very easy without much preparation.”
