Science Fusion Pacing Guides list the print and digital activities and resources
that make up each unit, show how those resources are related, and provide a time frame for completing activities. By following the Pacing Guides, you can progress through the print and/or digital path in the recommended number of days. In addition, teacher resources are clearly indicated along with a path for accessing them. When working at home, parents will need to set up the teacher and administrator account. Use this guide provided below to help you get started.

Sonlight Science Suggestions:
2. Lab reports--write out what you did, how it turned out, and why 3. Make graphs, tables, charts, diagrams with data from your Sonlight reading or your experiments 4. Go on a science field trip that pertains to your Sonlight studies. Draw about it or write a narrative of what you learned. 5. Create posters about a Sonlight science topic, share about it on video or other means 6. Demonstrate an experiment for your LEG in person or using video 7. Choose a Sonlight science topic (could even be on a scientist), research it further and report. Be creative. 8. Make a lap book about a topic. 9. Find people whose jobs pertain to the science topic you are studying. Interview them and share with your LEG. * If students make their learning personal by choosing topics that they are interested in, I don't think this will be busy work. Anything that involves collecting, analyzing, and evaluating data, reading, writing, and making applications to their own world would be great. |
