Voyage From the Sun Voyage From The Sun is a 20-lesson classroom
science module designed to introduce students to the major ways
in which energy is important in living systems. Voyage
encourages students to explore the story of Earth's energy --
its solar origins, how it is incorporated into living systems
through photosynthesis, and how it flows from plants to animals.
Voyage From The Sun's interactive program teaches students about
the adaptations that allow plants and animals to use and
conserve energy. Students examine how they use energy, where it
comes from, and how human impact on natural habitats affects the
natural energy flow. Voyage From The Sun supports science reform
efforts by building bridges between biology, the physical
sciences, math and language arts. Because of its flexibility and
wide range of activities, Voyage is relevant to students in
grade levels between 4 and 9. The sixty-page Teachers' Guide
provides instructions on the activities specially tailored for
students of upper and lower
