From animal habitats to the human body, matter to machines, rain forests to recycling, it's all here in one easy-to-use volume! Includes 296 reproducibles: picture cards, diagrams, graphic organizers activity sheets, mini-books, crafts, 3D activities like organ models and a skeleton, games, and much more! This book is organized by science disciplines—life science, physical science, space science, and environmental science—and features a section of 13 forms and graphic organizers. This book's text gives students with a well-rounded understanding of each topic. For example, students will learn not only about an animal's anatomy, but its life cycle and place in the food chain as well. A wealth of clean, accurate line art supports the text, making the book as visually stimulating as it is informative.

Topics covered in depth include:
Life Science -- Plants, land, invertebrates, ocean invertebrates, amphibians, reptiles, birds, fish, mammals, prehistoric animals, the human body
Physical Science -- Magnets, electricity, day & night, light, sound, matter, energy, simple machines
Earth Science -- Land forms, weather, air, water, rocks
Space Science -- Moon phases, stars, eclipses, solar system
Environmental Science -- Habitats (rainforest, desert, savanna, pond, ocean, polar regions), endangered animals, recycling.

There are also a number of reproducible graphic organizers that can be used with any topic: Venn diagrams, writing webs, outline form, note taking forms, report forms and world map.

I do not know of another single more useful book for making science and nature notebooks. Every sort of reproducible imaginable is in this book. I have heard of customers making copies at a reduced size for lapbooks, older children, or to fit more images onto a "scrapbook-style" notebook page. The pages can be used "as is" or cut apart to fit your needs. Just flipping through the pages of this book is sure to inspire creativity! While we enjoy doing a lot of our notebook pages ourselves, having a select number of ready-to-use resources to turn to certainly simplifies things and helps the children work independently in their free time. NOTE: There are a very few evolutionary references which are primarily of the "millions of years ago" type. They deal mostly with the dinosaur pages, but it is very easy to cut out the dinosaurs and have the children glue them to a separate page and add their own captions.
