Science Lessons and Investigations - Grade 4

Fourth grade is where science meets "let’s build it and see what happens." In thirteen NGSS-aligned units, your child will compare plant and animal structures, model how erosion shapes the land, spot patterns in Earth’s crust, study natural disasters, and measure human impact. Then he’ll chase energy—tracking how waves move and how light, sound, heat, and electricity behave.

The 5E sequence keeps things moving from hands-on spark to wrap-up extension, with readings, vocabulary, and comprehension built in. Teacher pages and a full answer key come standard.
