Homeschool Kindergarten Science Curriculum - Sonlight Science AHomeschool Kindergarten Science Curriculum - Sonlight Science A

Science

In Sonlight Science K, young learners use real scientific practices as they explore rainforests, insects, reptiles, plants, and more.

This homeschool science curriculum teaches your kindergartner to think like a scientist, building on their natural curiosity and appetite to explore the world around them. Sonlight Science K also includes an introduction to STEM topics including forces and matter, forming the basis of a lifetime of learning and application.

Weekly, learners engage in STEM-based science experiments directly correlating to the literature and topics of study in the week's curriculum schedule. Engaging literature creates the foundation of the learning and then hands-on experiments allow your kindergartner to experience the scientific process in action.

It's a gentle introduction to "doing math."
