Exploring Creation with Zoology 2: Swimming Creatures, 2nd Ed Textbook

** NEW 2nd EDITION - Available to ship May 1 **

Zoology 2 presents the science of sea creatures in a God-honoring way to elementary students. In this special ocean-centered book, students will learn all about God’s glorious design of swimming creatures. Students’ journey under the sea begins with an introduction to oceanography, which includes topics such as the oceans’ structure, salinity, tides, and waves. After becoming young oceanographers, students will continue their adventures by studying marine biology. They will learn all about God’s amazing swimming creatures, including whales, cephalopods, mollusks, gastropods, and more. They’ll learn not only about the creatures’ historical, physical, and behavioral significance but also about their important connections to humans. 

Students will investigate topics such as powerful water pressure, dazzling density, and stupendous hagfish slime by conducting at-home experiments using common household items. These engaging, hands-on activities bring learning to life and create an atmosphere of fun.
