Science (Age 10, US Grade 5)
About This Textbook
This textbook is designed to meet the full scope-and-sequence expectations of a fifth-grade science course that strengthens conceptual understanding while introducing more systematic investigation and modeling. Through coherent progressions, everyday examples, and frequent opportunities to observe, explain, and argue from evidence, the course equips students with the vocabulary and reasoning tools needed for middle-school science.
