Learn more about Sassafras Science

I love to read a good book, don’t you?

I enjoy immersing myself in the story and walking along with the characters.

I have had a dream to create a living books series that will lead students on a journey to learn science. Enter the Sassafras Science Adventures!!

Johnny and I have written a series of novels that will take your students on a fantastical zip line adventure with the Sassafras twins, Blaine and Tracey. Along the way, the twins will meet local experts who will teach them about science.

Watch this video to learn more about the Sassafras Science series:

This living books curriculum is shaking up the typical educational routine and inspiring students to love science! The Sassafras twins have been known to cause students to view science as the best part of their day!

Read the novel alone, or add in the activity guide and logbook for a complete homeschool science curriculum. Go ahead, take your students on a journey with the Sassafras twins to learn science!

If you are not ready to take the plunge yet, you will definitely want to check out the Sassafras Science blog! Their witty character-driven humor will keep you reading for years to come.

I have guest posted over there a couple of times. Here are a few of the favorites:

  • Why choose notebooking over worksheets?
  • Living books for science
  • How to successfully use living books with multiple ages

The Sassafras Science series is definitely the new kid on the block, but you don’t want to miss hanging out with the twins. Your students will learn science in a way they will never forget!

Welcome to the Elemental Blogging Laboratory

 
profile picWelcome to the Elemental Blogging Laboratory, a.k.a. the Eb Lab. Here at the lab, I have the pleasure of sharing with you all my passion for mixing up solutions for homeschool science! My name is Paige Hudson. I am a homeschooling mom and science curriculum writer for Elemental Science.
 
Why do I call this blog the "Eb Lab"? It is because I am scientist at heart and by profession, so it pretty much spills into everything I do. I love to share tips and tools with fellow educators as they seek to share science with their students!
 
That is what this blog is all about. One homeschooler to another, sharing her area of expertise, seeking to support you as you teach your students about the wonders of science.
 
So, grab your lab coat, notebook, and goggles...well maybe not the goggles because let's face it nobody looks good in those...and you probably don't have a lab coat lying around your house either...
 
So, grab a cup of coffee and notebook, and head on in to the Eb Lab to gather tools for homeschool science, tips for homeschooling, and the latest Elemental Science news!
