This program provides families who like to use living books with a Catholic framework from which to study science. It is not a textbook but rather is 40 pages, of which approximately half are outlines, that are three hole punched and ready to go into your notebook. The parent that uses this will find the eleven units of science outlined very handy for creating their own program and clearly laid out so that they can tuck personal notes and activities into their notebook using the 40 pages as their point of organizing. The manual begins with an explanation of how the outline can best be used and includes suggested resources and supplies. Each units focus (animals for example) is broken down by grade and includes a listing of the main headings that should be studied (e.g. Mammals, habitats and others in grade 1, amphibians, migration and others in grade 3). The author also includes a "find out" paragraph that includes special topics that parents should bring out.
