About this title

Synopsis

This set of Ready-to-Use Science Proficiency Lessons & Activities gives classroom teachers and science specialists a dynamic and progressive way to meet curriculum standards and competencies at the fourth-grade level. Youll find the lessons and activities at each level actively engage students in learning about the natural and technological world in which we live by encouraging them to use their senses and intuitive abilities on the road to discovery. They were developed and tested by professional science teachers who sought to give students enjoyable learning experiences while at the same time preparing them for district and statewide proficiency exams.
