Description

Exploring Creation with Zoology 1: Flying Creatures of the Fifth Day, 2nd Edition is a homeschool science curriculum for elementary students. In this book, students will explore animal classification and the dynamics of flight and will be able to connect the design they see in these incredible creatures to their Creator.

They’ll also have fun engaging with the birds and animals around them as they complete the exercises from the textbook and Notebooking Journal. They’ll learn how to attract local bird species and then identify them by looking at their unique physical characteristics, diverse nests, and intriguing domestic practices.

Curriculum Overview

We believe your child’s education is at its best when learning begins with curiosity. That’s why this course was designed for elementary students with no prerequisite. We use practical concepts and things in their world to help them learn that science isn’t just a class—it’s a means for them to experience and discover their world!

In Apologia’s Exploring Creation with Zoology 1: Flying Creatures, 2nd Edition, students will soar to new heights as they learn about the dynamics of flight and the uniqueness of birds, the value and misconceptions of bats, and the anatomy of insects (they’ll even get to collect and study some for a project!). After students complete this zoology study, they will never view or interact with nature in the same way again.

This elementary Zoology 1 course has 14 lessons that cover the following topics:

  • Lesson 1: What is Zoology?
  • Lesson 2: Entomology
  • Lesson 3: Butterflies and Friends
  • Lesson 4: Supremely Social
  • Lesson 5: Bee Happy
  • Lesson 6: Battling Beetles, Filthy Flies, and Bona Fide Bugs
  • Lesson 7: Interesting Insects
  • Lesson 8: Tyrannical Pterosaurs
  • Lesson 9: Birds in Abundance
  • Lesson 10: Fascinating Feathers
  • Lesson 11: Fabricated for Flying
  • Lesson 12: Nature’s Nifty Nests
  • Lesson 13: Matching and Hatching
  • Lesson 14: Beloved Bats

Textbook

Packed with vivid photos and a variety of hands-on activities, the textbook provides an engaging experience that lifts learning off the page. All the activities use easy-to-obtain household items and truly make the lessons come alive!

Some hands-on activities your student will complete include designing and experimenting with gliders, crafting a field notebook, building a suet feeder and seed feeder, testing which colors attract birds, building a birdbath, constructing a birdhouse, and much more.

Notebooking Journal
