Science (Age 9, US Grade 4)
About This Textbook
This textbook is designed to meet the full scope-and-sequence expectations of a fourth-grade science course that deepens students’ use of evidence, models, and simple data analysis. Organized into clear chapters with visuals, vocabulary, and checks for understanding, the program builds cause-and-effect reasoning and connects concepts across systems, preparing learners for more quantitative study in later grades.
