Blaine Sassafras here! Today, I’m going to share with you a mind-blowing short story about how a living book once saved the world.
Often we look at living books and nature study as the fun extras of science education, but can you really use them to teach science?
I love living books. These books bring a subject to life in a way that no textbook can.
Living books hold the students’ interest and engage them with the information they are learning in a way that the students will not easily forget. We use them as often as we can in our homeschool—in history, grammar, math, and of course, science!
I’m happy to be back on the Sassafras blog to share more about how to use living books to teach science to your elementary students.
Living books give us the ability to easily scale a lesson to fit multiple ages. But how exactly does one go about doing that?
