Exploring Creation with Earth Science Textbook

Exploring Creation with Earth Science by Rachael Yunis (Apologia) offers an immersive, hands-on introduction to Earth Science for elementary students (1-6). Designed with the Charlotte Mason approach, this course fosters curiosity through engaging lessons, notebooking activities, and interactive projects that bring scientific concepts to life.

Students explore foundational topics like the universe, Earth’s landforms, climate, weather, the biosphere, and life cycles—all while recognizing the beauty of creation. The structured yet flexible format allows families to progress at their own pace, with each lesson designed to span approximately two weeks (totaling 28 weeks for full completion).

Two leveled Notebooking Journals accommodate different learning stages:

• Junior Notebooking Journal (Grades 1-3): Simplified activities with coloring pages, cut-and-paste exercises, and guided writing.
• Notebooking Journal (Grades 4-6): Deeper prompts, diagrams, and critical-thinking questions to reinforce independent learning.

The spiral-bound textbook ensures durability for frequent use, and the clear, visually rich content keeps young learners engaged. Whether used in homeschool or co-op settings, this course balances academic rigor with a sense of wonder, nurturing a lifelong appreciation for Earth’s systems and their Creator.
