BJU Press Science 5 Student Text is visually appealing from the bright colors used in the table of contents through the abundant illustrations and photographs, and use of white space and font sizes. Topics are divided into areas of physical, life, and earth and space science. In physical science, students learn about matter and changes in matter; in life science they study interactions and changes in ecosystems, and four systems of the human body (immune, respiratory, circulatory, and nervous); and in earth and space they study biomes, weather, minerals, rocks, dinosaurs/fossils, and the solar system, moon and stars. The Student Text includes chapter readings, vocabulary, STEM activities, quick check questions, meet the scientists and stem career highlights, a glossary and index. Written to students, the full course is designed for teacher-student interactions, with some independent student work. Along with the softcover Text, the course is dependent on the Teacher’s Edition, Activities Manual and the separate Activities Answer Key, and the Assessments and Assessments Answer Key. Components sold separately or in the Science 5 Homeschool Kit.
