Does science scare you?
Are you just not a science person?
Are your kids bored with their science curriculum?
Have you not found the “right” curriculum for your kids?
Do you want to instill of love of science in your kids?
Do you want science to be fun?
If you answered “YES!” to any of the above, I have just the resource for you!
Registration will be opening soon for a 3 week online course complete with printables and resources that will walk you through the why and how to design your own science course for your kids. After How To Teach Homeschool Science Without Curriculum, you will be able to confidently tailor a science course to the interests and abilities of your children. You will make this the best year of homeschool science ever!
Why would you not want to use a science curriculum?
Don’t get me wrong. There are so many wonderful science curricula out there and we have used many of them. However, those curricula in themselves did not instill a love of science in my children. The curricula was there to reinforce what we learned on our own. We have found that a more interest led approach to science, especially in the early years and in the first years of homeschooling any age, sparks an interest and take the fear out of science.
Even though we have officially used a curriculum with our children the past couple years, we find ourselves going off on our own periodically to follow an interest. Many homeschool kids and parents want to do that, but are kind of scared to actually do it.
There are, also, other reasons to consider not using a curriculum.
* Not using a curriculum can be easier on the budget
* You can be more flexible with how deep you go into a subject
* You can cater to the needs and interests of your children
* You can change subjects on the fly if needed
* It can be easier to teach multiple ages by creating your own study
How will the course be set up?
After registration, you will receive your printable pack of resources. This will contain planning worksheets for brainstorming, resources, field trips, and experiments. It will also contain worksheets for your kids: animal reports, lab reports, and observation guides.
Approximately one week after registration, the first of three weekly Facebook Live chats will be held in a private Facebook group that only those registered for the course will be entered into. There will be one class a week for 3 weeks. During those chats, I will walk you through step by step how to teach your kids without a curriculum and help you make this the BEST homeschool science year ever!

I answered yes to all your questions – ha! And I have a major science lover (she is 11). I feel like I fail her every day in this regard. But even your website overwhelms me…too much foreign stuff for my math-loving brain to comprehend. 2 questions: what is the cost? And do you “teach how to teach” from a christian perspective? So I have 6 kids: 17,11,9,7,5,1 so there’s all ages to teach for us! Thanks!
Jessica- I haven’t gotten the cost down yet. Still waiting for some of the pieces to come together. I’ll announce that early next week. This course will be for Christian and secular families. It will be the basics of how to teach any area of science and have fun doing it!
