With Discoveries in Motion, your child begins to understand that everything in God's creation is actually in motion. Instead of just learning information, they are guided through ideas they can see, test, and think through.
Through experiments and hands-on learning, kids stay engaged and involved in each lesson. Throughout the year, they connect these concepts to biblical truth, making sense of how the Creator masterfully set the world in motion.
Scripture and biblical worldview are woven throughout the curriculum, helping your child recognize the order and design God placed in creation.
A 2nd-grade core that helps your child follow directions and gain independence, not just complete assignments.
Each week introduces a new focus connected to motion, systems, and real-world examples, all based in a biblical worldview. Your child works through experiments, observations, writing, and guided activities that build understanding step by step. Six field trip ideas that support each unit are also included.
As the year progresses, your child takes on more responsibility, learning how to record observations, complete work independently, and think through what they are learning.
Can I use this if I didn’t use Creatures in Creation? Yes. You can start with Discoveries in Motion even if your child used something different for first grade. If your child has used Creatures in Creation, this is a natural next step. If not, you can start here with confidence.
Are the lessons in Discoveries in Motion open-and-go? Yes. Lessons require minimal prep and are easy to start each day.

How many copies should I purchase? Each child should have their own set so they can fully participate in the activities, complete their work, and track their progress.
How is this different from first grade? Second grade focuses more on understanding how everything is in motion, building reasoning skills, and increasing independence while still keeping learning hands-on and engaging.
Do I need other curriculum with this? Discoveries in Motion covers core subjects for second grade, but math and reading should be added separately.
