Science education is the most engaging when it features hands-on lessons, numerous labs and worksheets. For this reason, the Interactive Science: Grade 4 curriculum for homeschooling features those components. By working with this program, you'll ensure your child has access to an exciting learning experience that will help him or her develop a love for the subject. By the time your child completes this program, he or she should be able to: Use prior knowledge to predict the outcome of an experiment. Use the Scientific Method to conduct experiments. Conduct research using the computer and books.  Understand that energy and fuels we use in our daily lives come from the environment. Design a model of a wave. Observe the ways in which organisms interact with their environments. You can help your child accomplish these and other Science-related goals by going using Interactive Science: Grade 4 curriculum set. Please note that Pearson creates educational materials for all types of learners. For that reason, when creating a program, we ensure that the material will be accessible to as many students as possible. As such, we create many ancillary products that fit specific situations and meet a variety of needs. While there are many components to each of our overall educational programs, some of these ancillaries do not meet the needs of homeschoolers, others do not make sense in a homeschool environment and some require an expensive technological infrastructure to deploy. The homeschool product configurations, while selected from a larger program, are complete curriculum bundles designed to engage your children and help them thrive while being mindful of your budget. It is important to note that at times there will be resources mentioned throughout our curriculum material descriptions that are not included in your package. However this will not hinder your child's successful completion of the course. Rather, the exclusion of certain materials will make homeschooling more budget-friendly and will ensure your curriculum meets your individual needs. - from Amzon
