We’ve heard it over and over again from home school parents – teaching real science is real hard. Science – specifically chemistry, physics, biology, astronomy and geology – is one of those subjects most people have a difficult time learning, as well as teaching. But…it doesn’t have to be that way.
Real science can be real easy, if you have the proper teaching tools. Real Science 4 Kids gives you all the tools necessary to help your kids not only learn science, but truly comprehend it – and have fun in the process!
The Traditional Way of Teaching Science
Science seems difficult because traditional approaches used for both teaching and learning make it more difficult than it should be.
Traditionally, educators have focused on teaching in volume. They believed that the more material a student was required to read, memorize, and repeat on an exam, the more the student would learn. But this isn’t “real” learning.
Real Learning the Real Science 4 Kids Way
Real learning that is deep enough to stimulate understanding can only occur when a student has had enough time to absorb the material being presented. For this reason the RS4K curriculum focuses on providing the essential building blocks of science to create a solid foundation for more advanced learning.
The fun of learning science is in the “puzzle” not in memorizing the “pieces.”
All of the science disciplines are interrelated, so understanding the basic building blocks means your child can understand ANY science topic. Real Science 4 Kids turns teaching “hard” science easy.

Science and Philosophy
REAL SCIENCE-4-KIDS provides both you and your child with a greater understanding of the opposing philosophies that form the basis of scientific critical thinking skills.
It helps you focus on real science and still understand the effect of different philosophies, religions, and prejudices have on all scientific thought. Your child will get a better science education without omitting the other elements that are important to a greater understanding.
How Real Science 4 Kids Is Organized
There are three needs for learning a new subject:
- Students must be exposed to the content in an organized, coherent fashion. REAL SCIENCE-4-KIDS broadly introduces students to five essential subjects that are focused on in more depth as learning progresses. By the time a student has read an RS4K textbook, they have been exposed to the essential building blocks of science and are able to make a connection between all science disciplines.
- Students must engage in hands-on activities. Science is an experimental disciplineand students must perform real-life experiments in order to learn what science is all about. REAL SCIENCE-4-KIDS provides real experiments (not just demonstrations) for students to perform with each chapter in each subject.
- Students must be able to transfer what they learn to new environments. It’s not enough to solve a problem they have already seen. They need to use the information they have learned to solve a problem they have never faced. To do this students must be able to connect their learning to other disciplines. REAL SCIENCE-4-KIDS textbooks and KOGS-4-KIDS workbooks help students see the connections between science and philosophy, history, critical thinking, the arts, language, and technology.
Don’t go through another day of home schooling in frustration or intimidation. Make science fun and easy by using the Real Science 4 Kids curriculum in your home today!
