Description

Grade 3. 2015. 16 pages. Forces and Interactions, part of the Building Blocks of Science Literacy Series™, relates students' everyday lives and experiences to the concepts of force and motion. Topics include:

  • Motion and Forces
  • Noncontact Forces
  • Simple Machines
  • Science and Engineering Practices
  • The Career of a Civil Engineer

Developed to enhance the teaching of Building Blocks of Science® units and other science curriculums, the Building Blocks of Science Literacy Series™: Forces and Interactions reader supports inquiry-based science lessons with engaging informational text. The content gives students a natural transition from hands-on investigations, builds background knowledge to reinforce conceptual learning, and lets students apply relevant nonfiction to their own real-world experiences. Educational studies show that children are more likely to engage with a reading exercise when the literature is related to a recent hands-on activity. The reader helps improve reading comprehension and aligns with the Next Generation Science Standards*.

The on-grade reader is available for purchase as a single printed copy (item #514903), pack of 6 printed copies (item #514903A), and pack of 30 printed copies (item #514903B). The below-grade reader is available as a single printed copy (item #514903BGR) and pack of 6 printed copies (item #514903ABGR). The 30-student license lets you access the on-grade and below-grade eBooks online for 60 months (item #514903E30). The Spanish reader is available as a single printed copy (item #514903SP) and pack of 6 (item #514903ASP).
