Teaching Resources

Middle School (Grades 4 - 8)

The following is a listing of teaching resources useful for the middle school science classroom. All of these materials are in the Curriculum Resources Center collection. The list is not all inclusive so if you want other materials it is a good idea to check the University Libraries online catalog using keyword searching for your topic and limiting to the Curriculum Resources Center for location. The appropriate age range for each item is included in parentheses after each entry. “M” = Middle (grades 4 – 8) “UM” = Upper Middle (grades 7 – 8) “LM” = Lower Middle (grades 4 – 6).
