These materials are not compatible with the previous Grade 2 Science course Patterns of Nature (1982).
This science course provides supplemental study in Grade 2, and is designed to be an interesting diversion from the main subjects of reading, writing, and math. Make sure the way you integrate this course whets the child's appetite for science and does not become an overwhelming assignment. Students who are struggling with the main courses will benefit from merely reading the science lessons without doing any exercises. Adjust the workload of exercises to the pupil's abilities.
The 188-page pupil's textbook contains many interesting facts and is loaded with full-color photos, paintings, and illustrations. The lessons can be rearranged to be studied at the time of year you prefer. Keep in mind, however, that the lessons move from simpler to more complex ones. So the best way to match the lessons to the student's capabilities is to study them in the order they are presented.
The accompanying 157-page workbook has answer blanks for the student to fill in. For many students, only part of the exercises will need to be assigned. Those who need more to occupy their time can do the whole lesson, including the Extra Activities. Reviews of previous lessons are provided for teachers who wish to use them. There are no tests for this grade of science. Throughout this course, the student will make (at the teacher's discretion) projects and drawings. A number of them could also be used for art classes.
The 341-page teacher's manual has a reduced copy of the pupil's textbook and workbook. Points to teach are listed beside each pupil's page, along with ideas for class discussion, extra information, and additional activities.
