Mia's Big Day
Mia the monkey woke up. The sun was up. She sat up in bed.
Mia saw a big red bird. "I can fly!" said the bird.
Mia can not fly. But she can run and jump and play.
She went to the pond. She saw a frog on a log. The frog sat still.
"Hi, frog!" said Mia. The frog did a big jump. Plop! It went in the pond.
Mia had a fun day!
Science is all about asking questions and finding answers. We'll explore living things, plants, and simple machines โ the tools that make our lives easier!
Living things do ALL of these things:
Items: ๐ณ tree, ๐ car, ๐ธ frog, ๐ book, ๐ป sunflower, ๐ชจ rock, ๐ dog, ๐ป computer, ๐ฆ butterfly, ๐๏ธ pen, ๐ fish, ๐ moon
| Part | Job | Where? |
|---|---|---|
| ๐ฑ Roots | Absorb water and nutrients; hold plant in soil | Underground |
| ๐ฟ Stem | Carries water from roots to leaves; holds plant up | Above ground |
| ๐ Leaves | Make food using sunlight (photosynthesis) | On branches |
| ๐ธ Flower | Makes seeds so the plant can reproduce | Top of plant |
| ๐ซ Seed | New plant waiting to grow | Inside fruit |
| ๐ Fruit | Protects the seed; helps spread seeds | Around seeds |
Draw a plant and label these parts: roots, stem, leaf, flower, seed
Circle all the things a plant needs to grow:
Write which part of the plant we eat for each food:
| Machine | What It Does | Real-World Example |
|---|---|---|
| โ๏ธ Wheel & Axle | Rolls to move things more easily | Car wheels, bicycle, rolling pin |
| ๐ Inclined Plane (Ramp) | Makes it easier to push things up | Wheelchair ramp, ski slope, slide |
| ๐ฉ Screw | Holds things together; lifts things | Jar lid, bolt, spiral staircase |
| โ๏ธ Lever | Lifts heavy things with less effort | Seesaw, crowbar, shovel |
| ๐ชค Wedge | Splits or cuts things apart | Knife, axe, doorstop |
| ๐ช Pulley | Changes direction of force; lifts loads | Flagpole rope, crane, blinds |
Look around your house! Find and draw one example of each simple machine:
| Helper | What They Do | Tools They Use |
|---|---|---|
| ๐ฎ Police Officer | Keeps community safe, enforces laws | Badge, handcuffs, patrol car |
| ๐ Firefighter | Puts out fires, saves lives | Hose, ladder, fire truck, gear |
| ๐จโโ๏ธ Doctor/Nurse | Helps sick and injured people get better | Stethoscope, medicine, bandages |
| ๐จโ๐ซ Teacher | Helps children learn and grow | Books, whiteboard, pencils |
| ๐จโ๐ณ Chef | Prepares and cooks food | Pots, knives, oven, recipes |
| ๐ Bus Driver | Safely transports people | Bus, driver's license, routes |

| ๐ท Construction Worker | Builds houses, roads, and buildings | Hammer, hard hat, crane |
Draw a map of your neighborhood. Include: your house, one neighbor's house, a road, and one community building (school, store, park). Add a legend and compass rose.
Early Math works best when printable practice connects back to a real learning routine. Lumi pairs screen-based lessons with workbooks, coloring pages, report cards, attendance records, and certificates so families can keep both digital and paper evidence of learning.
Printables are especially useful for handwriting, quiet practice, portfolios, co-op days, review weeks, and end-of-year records. They also give kids a hands-on break after voice-guided or interactive lessons.
For homeschool documentation, the value is consistency: digital lesson history shows what was taught, while printable pages show practice artifacts families can save.
Kids start from their own profile and move through a guided session with a friendly on-screen teacher, short explanations, interactive questions, and instant encouragement. Younger learners can use tap choices and read-aloud prompts; older learners answer by tapping or typing, with quizzes and subject-specific checks.
Parents can review lesson history, scores, subject progress, standards touched, attendance, and printable summaries. That turns daily learning into usable homeschool documentation instead of a vague "we did school today" memory.
Lumi keeps lessons short, varied, and forgiving. If a child misses something, the app can explain again, offer a hint, log the result, and bring the concept back later. That makes the curriculum feel less like a worksheet stack and more like a steady learning loop.
For best results, treat Lumi as the daily spine of your homeschool routine. Most families do one focused session per child, then add reading aloud, outdoor time, projects, errands, co-op classes, or hands-on practice around it. The app covers the repeatable academic work while parents keep the flexibility that makes homeschooling valuable.
If you are comparing programs, look closely at whether the tool teaches the lesson, checks understanding, saves progress, and gives you printable records. A page can promise "complete curriculum," but the day-to-day mechanics are what determine whether parents can actually sustain it.
Yes. Lumi is designed as a full K-8 homeschool curriculum with math, reading and writing, science, social studies, quizzes, progress records, and printable parent documentation. Some families add field trips, library books, religious instruction, or co-op classes on top.
Each learner has a separate profile with age range, grade level, subject progress, guide character, daily goal, and lesson history. The app uses completed lessons, missed questions, retry queues, and performance patterns to keep practice moving at a workable pace.
Most families begin with the free trial, add each child profile, choose age range or grade level, then let Lumi run the daily lesson sequence while the parent dashboard tracks progress.
