Since science is studied in relation to the explorer, how does it incorporate todays science of the same subject? Are there experiments?
A large part of the science instruction comes from the Handbook of Nature Study and the North American Wildlife Guide so it’s pretty current, and older students are often asked to delve deeper. On the few occasions when information in the resource books was found to be slightly out-of-date (i.e. the fairly recent change in the number of outer planets) students are informed. There are some experiments ” and a lot of active observation.
