Reading Essentials in Science <show description>

Reading Essentials in Science is designed to meet the demanding needs of today's classroom.

• Focus on Nonfiction—Build students' skills in content-area comprehension of informational text, a critical component of state tests and necessary for future success in and out of the classroom.

• High-Impact Visual Design—Captures interest and directs attention to critical textual elements.

• Aligned with Standards—Close correlation to National Science Education Standards, and provincial/state/national Language Arts standards permits easy integration with existing curricula in science.

• Extends Learning—The wide range of topics allows students to extend their learning through the books themselves, related Web sites, project ideas, and parent/home activities.

• Research Based—Develops students' reading proficiency through proven teaching strategies.
