Welcome to Homeschooling In Texas Buyers Co-Op Mystery Science. Mystery Science is a class I think Charlie would like a lot? The reasons are Charlie likes doing things with his hands and he loves knowing how things work. I can’t wait until David is back at work full time. I think I will purchase this new Homeschooling Resource for us. As it would allow them to teach Charlie Science and I wouldn’t have to stress trying to figure out what to do.
Mystery Science™
For Grades 2-5
Open-and-Go Lessons that can Inspire Kids to Love Science!
Mystery Science makes it easy to do hands-on science at home, without needing to be a science expert.
Each lesson is an investigation into a mystery that kids wonder about.
For example:
Human Body:
- Why do your biceps bulge?
- What do blind people see?
- How does your brain control your body?
Weather:
- Where do clouds come from?
- How can we predict when it’s going to storm?
- Why are some places always hot?
Earth Sciences:
- Why do some volcanoes explode?
- Will a mountain last forever?
- Could a volcano pop up in your backyard?
Physical Sciences:
- Can you really fry an egg on a hot sidewalk?
- What materials might be invented in the future?
- Could a volcano pop up in your backyard?
The mystery is then explored with an explanatory video punctuated with opportunities for discussion.
Every lesson concludes with simple hands-on activities using simple supplies you already have around the house, a non-fiction reading, an assessment, and additional learning resources.
