“This is your book. You can write in it!” Students will “engage with the page” with our revolutionary write-in Student Edition allowing them to keep a personal record of their learning. Now they can read, write, draw, graph, and self-assess all in one place! Research has shown that direct interactions will help students truly connect to the content and maximize understanding.

Engaging Questions begin every chapter and help you capture students’ ideas about science concepts.

My Planet Diary engages your students and puts concepts in a real-world context.

Interact with Your Book

Key Questions at the start of every lesson help students unlock the answer to the chapter’s Big Question.

Interactivities on every page actively involve students in their own learning.

“Read it. See it. Do it. Apply it” With Interactive Science, students can read about the science concepts, see the visual at point of use, interact with the page by completing an activity, and apply what they’ve learned, all in one place.

See It. Read it. Students read the core text and learn about key concepts.

4

Students see the concepts clearly illustrated in the art.

Do It. Students see the visual and then interact with art on the page.


Master Vocabulary with Vocabulary Smart Cards Apply It. Students take what they’ve learned and link concepts to a new situation.

Students can write their own definitions, draw pictures or (for older children) analyze prefixes and suffixes, practice throughout the day and use in the classroom. Teachers can use the cards to preview vocabulary at the beginning of the chapter, at point-of-use during lessons or for review and reinforcement at the end of the chapter.

e-Book also Available!

In an experiment there are factors that could be changed but must not be changed. These are called controlled variables because you control the experiment to make sure they do not change. List two controlled variables.
