[SaraKat · Rating 3 out of 5]

This has reading passages and short labs over lots of different science topics. There are some research components and writing exercises, too. I found several different activities that were new and a few improved versions of some things I already do. It says it is for 5th grade, but I feel like some of it will be appropriate for older students.
