Master Books Survey of Science History

    Turn Master Books' Exploring series into a homeschool science curriculum for high school. This 5-volume set includes The World of Biology, The World of Mathematics, The World of Physics, The World of Chemistry, and the Teacher Guide. The Teacher Guide provides a weekly lesson schedule, student worksheets, quizzes & tests, and an answer key. Pages are grouped by type, rather than by lesson, so parents can easily remove tests and answer keys. This course covers 1 year of science (worth 1 credit) at the recommended schedule of 3-4 days per week. The parent lesson guide is reproducible for homeschool families and small classrooms with under 10 students. Line-listed answer keys. Glossary included. NKJV Scripture used. Grades 10-12.

    History of Sciences by J. Hudson Tiner

    The third in this popular series, with the same format (including questions that teachers can use for checking comprehension) that has driven the success of Exploring Planet Earth and Exploring the History of Medicine. Home and Christian school teachers are clamoring for these more specialized books and here Tiner delivers in a big way.

    With a flair for telling biographical sketches of famous scientists. Tiner also provides students with a solid foundation for understanding the crucial purposes of chemistry.

    Each chapter ends with study questions and the answers, in the back of the book, can easily be removed by teacher or parent.
