Elementary Science Program for Homeschoolers |
The growth of the homeschool movement has exposed a need for an exciting elementary science program. Creation Studies Institute (CSI) has designed a quality, science curriculum which follows the National Science Education Standards, to serve the homeschool families of Broward, Dade, and Palm Beach counties.
The CSI elementary science program is uniquely designed to help students connect with their Creator God, providing students with the opportunity to experience discovery workshops. The CSI creation-based curriculum is highly interactive and makes learning fun.
This program gives parents the opportunity to encourage their children to think, as they engage in the exciting hands-on activities, watch spectacular demonstrations, participate in inquiry-based discussions and more. It fills students with knowledge and appreciation as they discover the scientific evidences of Godʼs Creation.
Each quarter coincides with the local school year, and investigates topics from two areas of
science, such as Physical Science, Earth and Space Science, Environmental Science or Life Science.
