Want to switch on the excitement of science investigations and fun learning? Introduce your child to The Curiosity Files™ and discover some unusually interesting subjects . . . you know, the unfamiliar, the zany, and the strange things of nature that kids are so attracted to. Professor Ana Lyze and her research “spy” team specialize in the obscure, the abnormal, and the bizarre. With The Curiosity Files™, children will become educated about subjects they’d never find otherwise.

With this unit, kids will think creatively and exercise their minds while exploring many interesting and related topics. They will learn about similes and practice the skill of descriptive writing in The Write Stuff feature. Plus, they will have fun drawing a picture to accompany their written description. Figure It Out uses the appeal and practicality of learning math concepts related to some real-life lessons for primary and middle grades. This section includes lessons about cylinders, diameter, division, fractions, and even includes an addition page for younger students. Enjoy two levels of vocabulary activities and spelling worksheets that cover both elementary and middle/high school. You’ll also find Scripture-based copywork pages for handwriting practice!
