Science Detective A1, Grades 5-6

Description

Children love to mess around with stuff and explore the world around them. Channel this curiosity and energy in a way that will teach them critical-thinking skills! Science Detective® from The Critical Thinking Company uses topics and skills drawn from national science standards to prepare students for more advanced science courses and new assessments that measure reasoning, reading comprehension, and writing in science.

First, students read lessons that include a variety of charts, tables, and graphs. Then, they answer critical-thinking questions to improve their understanding of the science concepts and develop their reading comprehension, and inferential and deductive thinking skills. Students can’t just scan the story for answers—they must carefully analyze and synthesize the information from the text and the charts, tables, and graphs to explain and support their answers. Teaching Support includes, teacher and student introductions, chart of topics and key ideas to help select activities, and detailed answers.

  1. My youngest daughter loved this curriculum! It is a fun, engaging Science program that, like all of the Critical Thinking Company products, asks the students to think critically and deductively about the information being presented. This program is a great foundation for upper elementary ages students who want to solidify their scientific understanding before moving on to Jr. High Science. Utilizes National Science Standards and integrates science, reading, writing and graphing. Highly recommended!
