Description
From asking questions and predicting outcomes about how energy changes when objects collide to using a model to describe how animals receive and process information, our engaging kits support Next Generation Science Standards* for fourth grade! The set includes all 3 kits, each with 4 double-sided, 8 1/2" x 11" Investigation cards that encourage critical and scientific thinking, materials for 4 investigations and 4 Connection cards for making real-world connections. Plus, you get a guide with detailed lesson plans, investigation tips, possible solutions and much more! Each kit also available separately.

Develops skills in:
• Using evidence to construct an explanation relating the speed of an object to the energy of that object
• Making observations to provide evidence that energy can be transferred from place to place by sound, light, heat and electric currents
• Asking questions and predicting outcomes about the changes in energy that occur when objects collide
• Applying scientific ideas to design, test and refine a device that converts energy from one form to another
• Identifying evidence from patterns in rock formations and fossils in rock layers to support an explanation for changes in a landscape over time
• Making observations and/or measurements to provide evidence of the effects of weathering or the rate of erosion by water, ice, wind or vegetation
• Analyzing and interpreting data from maps to describe patterns of Earth’s features
• Constructing an argument that animals have internal and external structures that function to support survival, growth, behavior and reproduction
• Using a model to describe how animals receive different types of information through their senses, process the information in their brain and respond to the information in different ways

Has some flaws

September 14, 2022 - By Kasie Hollisfrom Temecula, CA

I love these kits and used them for both 3rd and 4th grade, but two of the experiments have not worked this year: Human Body, eye experiment did not ever focus for us. We had to improvise and write a happy face in marker on the lens. Energy, Transfer of Energy experiment also did not work. The wood blocks were too heavy for the provided fan/wind output. Hopefully LL improves these two experiments in the future. Kids were pretty frustrated after doing all the work to set things up, only to have it fail.

Yes, I would recommend this product.

Science made easy!

September 04, 2020 - By New Homeschoolerfrom Walnut Creek, CA

I debated getting this because of the cost, but I'm so happy I did! It includes everything, literally everything, that you need for homeschool science lessons. You don't need to go looking through your pantry for supplies, you don't need to save cardboard boxes for building projects, you don't need to prepare ahead of time, you just open the box and pull out the nicely laminated sheets with the lesson and the activity with observation questions. Since we're planning to return to school, I like that it meets Next Generation Science Standards. It has hands-on experiments and models INCLUDED. Above all, it's fun! Highly recommended.

Yes, I would recommend this product.
