Halcyon Posted March 9, 2013 Share Posted March 9, 2013 My son enjoys science workbooks. Last year we used spectrum science and didnt finish it, but enjoyed it. The readings were engaging and opened up a lot of rabbit trails. Other suggestions of high interest science workbooks? We are trying Evan Moor Daily Science but i think i oike it better for the younger grades. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mom31257 Posted March 9, 2013 Share Posted March 9, 2013 What about the Complete Book of Science? I've not used it, but I really like all of their products that I have used. This series looks promising, too. I've not used their science books, but I've used one of their math books to tutor a student. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have the CBOS for grades 3-4, and i like it but dont feel it's particularly deep. I am going to try and find previews for the new editon of the 5-6. Thanks! Btw, CBOS has an updated version called Science Essentials. http://www.amazon.com/Science-Essentials-Grades-5-6/dp/0769660495/ref=dp_ob_title_bk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arcadia Posted March 9, 2013 Share Posted March 9, 2013 I have updated the Holt Science thread to include links to the workbooks and readers. I used Evan Moor Daily Science a grade ahead during the summer for my boys to practice non-fiction writing. I might use the Holt interactive readers for comprehension practice.

3andme Posted March 9, 2013 Share Posted March 9, 2013 The Science Daybook readers from Great Source are good for upper elem. & middle school. Brief topics with related questions. There is a companion book called Sciencesaurus which is more of a reference book - it comes in two levels (gr 4-5) or (gr 6-7). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
