Creation Unit Study for 2011

We will be studying aspects of science with homemade unit studies based on a wonderful book about the Vedic creation story called Creation: A Story From Ancient India by Rasamandala Das and Ananta Shakti Das. The boys love this book and we have already read it several times. It summarizes stories from the Srimad Bhagavatam with beautiful pictures.



We will be spending a month on each of the different subjects:

January - Time and Space
February - Aquatics
March - Vegetation
April - Insects
May - Reptiles
June - Birds
July - Mammals
August - Human beings/body

We'll read library books, make our own books, and do science experiments and art projects. After a year of geography, science themes seem especially exciting!
