Discover & Do
The ideal video supplement to your Sonlight Science program.
There is no better way to delight your kids with the wonders of science (and reinforce lessons!) than by experiencing it firsthand through hands-on activities. With Discover & Do, your children learn by actually doing the science!
Children will not just memorize the steps of the scientific process. Rather, your students will conduct simple, engaging, hands-on experiments in your home and actually use the scientific method to explore their world in a fun, enjoyable and interactive way.
There are three components to Discover & Do: Experiments, Videos and Supplies Kits. Learn more about each below.
Discover & Do is included in Sonlight elementary and middle school science programs (Levels K-H). Experiment videos are included in Sonlight Science levels K through H. Each experiment and video tie directly to that week’s reading material for an interconnected experience.
