Description |
In the Botany Adventure! you can learn all about plants from the roots
up: life cycles, needs, usage, differences, uniqueness, and comparisons.
Microscopic to hands-on labs with plenty of Lab Sheets. Practice/review pages
and the 50+ flashcards help students master essential concepts such as flower
parts, leaf shapes, and root types. Appropriate for 6th grade through high
school ~ this 160+ page study provides an exciting and comprehensive look at the
plant world around us. Cathy Duffy says, "Since there are no [homeschool] botany
texts written for elementary and high school students, until now those of us who
wanted to study botany had to create our own courses from the ground up. This
unit study solves that problem and does a great job of structuring a botany
course that is both enjoyable and educational."

"Kym Wright has provided the tools, the rest is up to us! I would have to say
that this "unit study" qualifies as a full-blown, one-semester course in
Botany or beginning Plant Biology, rather than what we’ve come to see as a unit
study. This is serious learning, complete with microscopic exploration, research
and plenty of reading, replete with labs and experimentation - all well thought
out, well laid out, and organized so we can jump right in. This lady did her
homework, and it shows! The course smacks of professionalism from the print
quality to the lesson quality."
