Perfect!

We started with grades 2-3 and I love these books! They have helped us move forward in Science like few other books I've used in the past 10 years. They are informative and fun. Read and Understand Science is filled with good activities, and the chapters are long enough to cover the concepts without becoming tedious. My favorite part is that it teaches key concepts without incorporating experiments too difficult to pull off in my kitchen!

great reading/vocabulary resource for teaching science

This series builds literacy in science through readings about the human body, life, earth, and physical sciences. Key vocabulary words are presented in boldface. Each reading is followed by exercises and activities that strengthen the vocabulary and concepts presented in the reading.

We are using this Science book for a third grader in homeschool.

We have found this book to be interesting to the student. After reading the experiments/stories, the student answers questions about what he has read. This requires comprehension and understanding. The questions are geared to require some thinking and expression by him. When called on to do experiments, he is eager to determine if the experiment will work. Often, he insists that someone else watch how it works as he does it over. I believe he is enjoying this Science curriculum and will be finished with it in record time.

The 27 stories in Read and Understand Science address objectives drawn from the National Science Education Standards. There are stories in the areas of life science, physical science, earth and space science, and science and technology.
