Rabbit Trails through Science: Botany is a literature based science curriculum for all elementary age children. It contains 8 lessons, with each lesson taking two weeks to cover. This makes it a 16 week curriculum, which will take one semester to complete.
This science curriculum has 8 lessons on flowers, trees, and more, so you will become an expert botanist! The 8 different lessons and Rabbit Trails include:
-Introduction to Plants
-Seeds, Roots, & Stems
-Trees & Leaves
-Flowers
-Fruits & Seeds
-Plant Defenses
-Desert & Aquatic Plants
-Mushrooms & Lichen
The main books that go along with this curriculum are:
Explanatorium of Nature
This is the main book that all of our nature curriculum uses as a spine. It has beautiful, full color photographs, diagrams, and so much more to learn from! It’s an amazing resource book to include in your homeschool and is sure to be well loved.
Book of Nature Poetry
This book is full of nature poetry by some names that you will likely recognize. It has beautiful photography to go with each poem, and there are a lot! Some of these poems will be included in the copywork sections of each lesson, plus you can have a fun poetry tea time reading them, too.

What about a sample schedule? I created Rabbit Trails through Science to not have any boxes to check- I want homeschool families to make Rabbit Trails fit into their everyday lives without stressing about what lesson needs to be done each day. However, I know some people like to have a lesson all laid out for them so they can envision how the curriculum will fit into their homeschool. I have attached a file that shows a sample schedule for one lesson to give you an idea of how I personally lay out the lessons in my own homeschool.
Don’t forget to grab all of your books from my Amazon Storefront
and your Scripture Cards and Companion Journal to go with your lesson!
Have fun learning about Botany in your homeschool with Rabbit Trails through Science!
