Six different areas of science get a middle-school-ready treatment in this booklet, bridging elementary and middle school work without a teacher building that bridge alone. Students test whether a substance behaves as an acid or a base, then separate colors from a single mixture using chromatography. A question on what actually affects photosynthesis runs alongside sections on sound and energy, each pitched a little higher than earlier grades. Every section opens a free Brenda Hayles video lesson through its own link. Color diagrams spanning biology, chemistry and physics appear throughout, and the glossary supports terms students will meet again later. NGSS code 4-PS3-4 is covered.

Inside:

• Six sections spanning biology, chemistry and physics
• A linked video lesson for every section
• Color diagrams covering three science subjects
• A glossary of terms for the next grade level
