My Pals are Here International Science Grade 2

This course is divided into 32 lettered sections, i.e., unit 1, part A. Complete one section of the Textbook and the corresponding Activity Book pages each week to complete this course within a standard school year. Or, if you prefer, you can find detailed lesson plans in the Teacher’s Guides.

Singapore's My Pals are Here International Science materials are based on the science curricula presented in the Singapore public schools. This kid-friendly curriculum is based on the inquiry method of study. 

Full-color photographs and illustrations in the My Pals are Here International Science textbook will immediately grab your student's attention. But, it is the easy-to-use Teacher's Guide that will make it super-appealing for any homeschool parent. 

MPH Science develops higher-order thinking skills through the questions raised to ignite your child's curiosity and build his inquiry skills. 

MPH Science covers biology, chemistry, physics, and earth science elements at each level. At the end of each unit is a review, a test, a glossary, and more.

There are just three books for each grade level: a Textbook, a consumable Activity Book, and a Teacher's Guide. Each black-and-white Teacher's Guide includes lesson plans, suggestions for teaching, and answers to all textbook and activity book exercises.

The black-and-white consumable Activity Book provides related exercises and reinforces concepts, many learned through art-based activities. Other hands-on activities are included to develop students' competencies and cater to kinesthetic and visual learners. 

MPH Science does require frequent parental involvement, regardless of the grade being taught. Parents will need to oversee experiments, explain concepts, and answer questions. Thankfully, everything you will require is covered in the Teacher's Guides; you do not need a strong science background. Corresponding pages of the textbook and activity book are referenced. Any other resources or materials you may need are cited. They have even suggested how much time is necessary for every step of each lesson.

While there are plenty of hands-on activities, MPH Science has chosen to emphasize reading, written work, and student-teacher interaction over many science experiments. That is welcome news for parents who dread the work and the mess of science experiments. 

MPH Science is a solid, complete, enjoyable program for elementary grades. The series offers a stress-free introduction to science facts and principles, foundational for deeper study. The My Pals Are Here series is a comprehensive scientific study for grades 1-6.
