By Barb Shelton.

This subject has intimidated many out of homeschooling to graduation ~ or at least out of ENJOYing this subject as God intended it to be enjoyed! Yet it CAN be one of the most enjoyable, life-enriching areas of study! This book gleans from the wisdom of many science and homeschool experts and draws fromBarb's "master form designer" abilities to give rich food for thought in formulating your priorities for your lab science class.

Here's what Cindy, a homeschool mom, said about it:
"This book has even got ME excited about science!! It is giving me all kinds of ideas of things to fill in our high school framework. As usual, she takes the fear out of something by giving us the tools with which to lead our children in the way God is pointing them. Thanks, Barb. Also, as usual, the price is way less than you would expect to pay for something with this much helpful info in it!"

The book contains sample frameworks for many lab science areas, ideas, and record-keeping forms to help you coordinate or create your own course, as well as more traditional resources to draw from, if you prefer. As is happening with Cindy, it was designed to replace the "jitters" with delight and direction! (165 pages)

Teresa Ward, one of Barb's online secretaries and list shepherdesses has this to say to anyone who is thinking about how to put together a science class for a teen:

The very first thing that I absolutely recommend to any and all is to get Barb's book, "Lab Science: The How, Why, Who, What, 'n Where Book." If you already have her "Senior High: A Home-Designed Form+U+la" (and you should), then this is the extensive science chapter to that. I actually three-hole punched both books and have them in the same binder!!! :-)

This book is full of explanations from several *real scientists* as to what is required or necessary for understanding of any science topic, not just Biology. And, as you would expect from Barb, lots of wonderful charts and forms. (Which are now in electronic form available elsewhere in this catalog! So check those out here!)

In fact, I think this is a helpful resource for any homeschooler, not just the high schooling ones.

Remember, the first step in your research is to get Barb's Lab Science Book. It will save you untold hours of frustration and probably hundreds of dollars, too. She already did all the preliminary research for us, and her book has concrete recommendations for resources to use, also.

Blessings,
Teresa Ward
