Students will discover more of the world around them and deepen their knowledge of the Creator.
How We Teach Science 4
Effective Questioning
Science 4 uses the Socratic method to lead students to logical conclusions based on what they already know. Teachers will guide students by using insightful questions to help them discover, analyze, and discuss the material being covered in each lesson.
STEM Learning
This course uses a STEM approach to refine students’ academic skills and prepare them for versatile careers. Through experimentation, inquiry, and project- and problem-based learning, students will examine problems from multiple angles and select the best additional or alternative skill sets to bring about the best solution.
Visual Analysis
Science 4 guides students in analyzing diagrams, photos, illustrations, graphs, and maps. Students will learn to investigate and pull key pieces of data from multiple sources. They will also develop their skills in selecting appropriate scientific methods for resolving problems.
