History, geography and the sciences are greatly enhanced by the presentation of the "Great Lessons." These lessons are dramatic presentations giving the history of the universe and the world, as well as the evolution of plants, animals and humans on the earth.

Children are involved in many ways in understanding the cosmic story of the beginnings of the universe, the formation of stars, planets, the sun and the earth. They learn the story of the origins of man and all things. The human being represents both a culmination and a point of departure. Time lines, charts and basic research cards of human needs and the advancement of civilizations help the child in independent study. Here is the opportunity for special studies in geology, biology, geography and history.

The model of "Cosmic Education" and the "Great Lessons" creates an integrated curriculum of history, biology, geography, geology and the story of the development of language and mathematics.
