Spend less time planning for science and more time actually doing science. This program provides inquiry-rich content with Scaffolded Inquiry(TM) activities; cross-curricular connections that link reading and science skills in every chapter; hundreds of Leveled Readers for differentiated instruction; and time-saving strategies that create extra time in your day to do science.
