Ep 114 - What should logic stage science look like?

Welcome to episode 4 in season 9 of the Tips for Homeschool Science podcast! In this episode, we'll be discussing logic stage science - your goals, the tools, and how to put it all together.

Key Takeaways

1. The goals of logic stage science are to capitalize on the student's need to know why and continue to feed them with scientific information. 
2. Science fair projects are a great tool for our kids to see the scientific method from start to finish and our logic students really benefit from that experience because it's helping them to think critically and to organize the information. 
3. Look at all the tools, all 7 of them, as options you as a classical educator can use.
