тетрадь по астрономии

Having laughed my way through an astronomy course at the state university, it was exciting to read an astronomy book that actually made sense. Dr. Henry has produced a thorough, yet concise overview of the study of astronomy. The book clearly explains what the main theories are that don’t line up with Biblical accounts, and why they don’t make sense. It gives us the history of astronomy and space exploration, without touching on the tragedies. Multiple illustrations and photographs on each page both add to the text, and make the book a pleasure to simply look at. The book itself appeals to a range of ages. My husband read it through as soon as he saw it, and I’ve had at least one child who would have been fascinated with this book by the time she was four. The endnotes are a manageable size for further exploration. The glossary simplifies complex concepts for a child’s understanding and the pull-out poster of the solar system is both aesthetically pleasing, and informative.The accompanying Study Guide & Workbook from Master Books is also a treasure. In thirteen lessons it gives relevant scriptures to look-up, review questions, additional resources to pursue various topics, and suggested activities – some of which could evolve into extensive projects. Several times suggestions are made to help younger students participate, when how to make this a multi-level lesson isn’t quite so obvious. This small guide combined with the book can make a thorough study of astronomy for your family.Pros: Excellent coverage of astronomy. Layout and text make it easy to either read through, or take in small bits. Illustrations and photos are excellent quality and add to the text well. Bonus pull-out poster is excellent. The study guide is an excellent source for further study and increasing comprehension and retention of the material.Cons: These were published before Pluto was demoted from planet status. There was no mention of the work going on to get people to Mars. There are no activities in the study guide to help give a student a sense of the actual distances involved. Parents may wa
