Science of the Week
Guide with Curriculum suggestions for Kindergarten Ages 4 & 5

written and compiled by 
Katrina Lybbert

"Science of the Week" is a guide to reading the Let's-Read-and-Find-Out Science books, and includes suggestions for making this a science curriculum for the Kindergarten years.  (However this curriculum is adaptable to be used with children from ages 3 - 7.)

I have chosen to work with up to 40 different Let's-Read-and-Find-Out Science books.  You can spread the books out over 2 years and go through the books in any order.  There are many more than 40 books in the series, so if you find a book that your child is really interested in, please feel free to create your own lesson plan with that book.  I will list the other possible books you could use below the lesson plans.  I will create lesson plans for 40 books only.

"My Science Journey Poster" and "My Science Journey Journal."
