The fifth grade delves deeper into life sciences by looking closely at the building blocks of life: CELLS! As always, when we enter a new unit – be it in science or social studies – our examination of the surrounding world hinges on guiding questions. In this case, our investigation of plant cells, leaves, and color change is driven by one question: “How do living, created things relate to each other and the environment?” Through this lens, we are more deeply able to build an understanding of cellular biology without depriving our inquiry of the idea that God plays the most creative role in the relationship between living things. How exciting that we can observe evidence of photosynthesis with scientist minds and joyful, Christ-centered hearts at the same time!
