Teach your children to think like a scientist, to use the skills and practices that real scientists use. Each weekly experiment helps bring to life the scientific content read each week. Sonlight's great books provide the context, while the experiments help students apply scientific practices and principles to the topics they read about each week.
Sonlight Science K will prepare your children to become future scientists by training them to think scientifically. Beyond studying classic scientific topics, Sonlight Science K creates a learning environment in which students can gain the skills and practices used by scientists and engineers to answer questions, solve problems, and innovate and improve their own designed solutions.
From the heat of the sun to the eyes of an insect, Sonlight Science K nurtures children's natural curiosity and provides daily opportunities to explore the world around them. They will use real scientific skills and practices as they explore rainforests and encounter reptiles, insects, plants and more. Science K includes a high-level introduction to forces, matter and other STEM topics that will prepare students for a lifetime of scientific curiosity, learning and application.
Each easy-to-complete experiment helps the topics you've read about that week bloom into practical, real-world experiences. Each experiment provides students with a topic-related question to explore. As they discover answers to the questions for themselves, they gain experience in solving problems independently. Do you know what makes wind blow? Or why a bee's honeycomb is a hexagon? Have fun watching for the many “aha!” moments this course will provide.
Please Note: Sonlight Curriculum does not sell their materials to Exodus Books. We carry many of the same titles, and are often able to obtain used copies of books they publish. The following is culled from their 2025 website and includes much of their selection, though it is not comprehensive, nor is it in any sort of curricular order. For a complete listing, visit the Sonlight Curriculum website.
