Publisher's Description of Science 5 Lifepac - Unit 7 Worktext

Do you want to encourage your child's natural curiosity about fossils? Do you want your fifth grader to learn about the remains and evidence of creatures and plants that once lived on the earth—from a Christian perspective? You'll find fun, informative lessons on fossils in the LIFEPAC 5th Grade Science Unit 7 Worktext from Alpha Omega Publications. These consumable lessons will make your child aware of the different types of fossils and where they can be found. But that's not all! This Alpha Omega curriculum will also teach your student how to identify and read fossils. These fun and easy lessons are packed into a slim, non-bulky worktext, the seventh of ten in a series, which your child can complete in three to four weeks. Can you imagine the thrill of watching your fifth grader grow independent and develop strong science skills?

Rest easy as the LIFEPAC 5th Grade Science Unit 7 Worktext takes the challenge out of understanding the fossil records in the rocks. The Alpha Omega curriculum encourages your child to learn independently by taking him step by step through the lessons. First, he reads an interesting introduction to fossils, followed by a list of objectives and key vocabulary words. Then as your child goes through each lesson, he answers review questions and conducts experiments and other hands-on activities that keep him learning. He can also take self tests. Lastly, you, the teacher, administer a final removable unit test. All of these components work together to encourage your child's success in science.



Category Description for Alpha Omega Science

LIFEPAC worktexts provide a complete, year-long science curriculum for each grade. From a Christian publisher, the approach is systematic mastery learning. It's very easy to teach from, with no need to write out lesson plans or prepare materials. You will have to gather equipment and materials for science experiments, however. Each grade contains 10 small consumable worktexts which the students progress through at their own pace. Each unit includes vocabulary, text, and comprehension questions to assure students retain the material. The science series is more activity-oriented than AOP's other subject LIFEPACs, with plenty of experiments to help illustrate science concepts. Grades 1-10 worktexts contain colorful illustrations; grades 11-12 are only available in black and white. Complete Boxed Sets also include a Teacher's Guide with teaching tips and answer keys. Sets of LIFEPACS only (no Teacher's Guides) are also available at each level for additional students.
