1학년 과학 융합: 지구 과학 (3/4)

First grade Science is very interesting and fun for students! This semester class will include a mixture of S.T.E.M., Life Science, Earth Science, and Physical Science. We will even learn about people and careers in Science! This class will provide hands-on activities, such as drawing, painting, and other projects. 

There is an optional write-in student edition book of Science Fusion, that you may purchase for your child. I have acquired permission from Houghton Mifflin Harcourt to use Science Fusion, Grade 1, for use in my online Outschool class. The ISBN # is 978-0-544-77837-5. The book is a great price on Amazon! We will cover all of the pages in the book, except the Inquiry Flipchart pages. https://www.amazon.com/ScienceFusion-Student-Interactive-Worktext-Grade/dp/0544778375
