This year the kids and I decided to do a course on botany for our science curriculum. It's exciting and inspiring being able to learn many subjects together around our dining room table, while constantly being reminded of G-d's infinite wisdom and vastness.
During the last few weeks we covered taxonomy, phyla, vascular and non vascular plants, moss, seed homes and angiosperms. I had to do quite a bit of editing to the curriculum that I found, so that it aligns itself to our religious beliefs, but the end result was satisfying. It was truly exciting to show the kids that no matter what we are learning, there is never a disconnect with G-d.
In the pictures below we were learning about the midrib and it's role.
I have used their zoology 1 book with some censoring. Loved it!
