The activities in this Notebooking Journal provide everything your child needs to complete the assignments in Exploring Creation with Chemistry and Physics. In addition to a suggested daily lesson schedule, it serves as your child's notebook and provides a place for them to complete every assignment, record their experiments, and display their work. This title is a part of Apologia's Young Explorer Series.

A perfect complement to Exploring Creation with Chemistry and Physics, the Chemistry and Physics Notebooking Journal provides everything your student needs to complete his study of chemistry and physics. Not only does it include all the helpful and creative features of our other Notebooking Journals in the Young Explorer Series, but it also many additional activities, projects, and experiments that can be completed in one day or less.

This Notebooking Journal will serve as your child's notebook, providing a place for him to complete every assignment in the text.

The Benefits of Using the Notebooking Journal

Keeping a scientific notebook has always been standard scientific practice. Apologia's Notebooking Journals have been designed to:

  • Facilitate retention and provide documentation of your student's education. The unique personal written and artistic expressions incorporate both sides of the brain
  • Be flexible and allows for multilevel learning. A twelve-year-old student may write an essay and make an elaborate illustration, while a six-year-old may write one sentence with a stick-figure drawing
  • Help students record experiences, observations, and thoughts
  • Engage students in the scientific process
  • Provide a written history that students can reference as they explore new subject areas
  • Give your student a place where they can record and organize experiences and observations
  • Provides a place to review their notes to create opinions, and draw conclusions about the way their world works

If a tree falls in the forest and no one is present to hear it, does it still make a sound? Exploring this question and countless others is at the heart of this newest course in the Apologia Elementary series. Offering fourteen lessons to be completed at your child's individual pacing, topics covered include a general introduction to chemistry and matter from a Biblical perspective, types of matter, the building blocks of creation, compound chemistry, mixtures, Newton's laws, gravity, forms of energy (including renewable energy), sound, light and spectrum of colors, thermodynamics, electricity, magnetism, simple machines and much more. Hands-on activities abound! Children will make smoke bombs, lava lamps and even create a periodic table from sugar cookies (YUM!). Notebook activities are plentiful in the text book, although an optional notebook is also available to enhance the learning experience. Author Jeannie Fulbright has once again given homeschool families a powerful tool for teaching science to our children. A complete supply list is found at the back of the book, although prepackaged science kits are available for your convenience.

Available for younger students or reluctant writers, the Junior Notebooking Journal requires less handwriting and provides more coloring pages than the original Notebooking Journal. Additional supplements include an audiobook MP3 CD and a Lab Kit packaged by Nature’s Workshop. Most activities require only household items and common supplies. You can gather these for each activity as you go, or purchase the kit for convenience. ~Deanne
