Introduction

This document demonstrates how Pearson’s Interactive Science © 2011 meets the objectives of the Colorado Academic Standards for Science, Grades 6-8. Interactive Science is composed of twelve student modules spanning life, earth, physical, and nature topics. Correlation page references are to the twelve student modules and the Teacher’s Editions; citations occur at the page level. Interactive Science utilizes essential best practices in science instruction, directed by authors and leading educators including such as Grant Wiggins, Understanding by Design®, and Michael Padilla, Inquiry. The program is organized through three pathways for learning: Reading, Inquiry, Digital. Students activate learning with the Write-In Student Edition; interact with inquiry with engaging hands-on labs and activities; and interact online with state of the art technology resources. Interactive Science engages students through experiences that make science personal and relevant. Through the use of its innovate write-in student edition and digital path, Interactive Science provides students with a sense of ownership, by having students “engage with the page,” and connecting the Big Ideas to students’ lives. Interactive Science continually seeks ways for students to become engaged in science, to comprehend the content, and then to demonstrate their understanding and even connect concepts.

• Cutting-edge, Untamed Science videos tap students’ prior knowledge and provide discussion opportunities

• My Planet Diary lesson-starters, help address the “so what” in science • Almost-daily, scaffolded, inquiry-based, hands-on labs and activities resources and

kit • Frequent point-of-use assessments • Online technology tools and virtual lab environments allows students to record their

own observations and data MyScienceOnline.com is a state-of-the-art, online learning environment for students and teachers.

• My Science Coach is your students’ personal online study partner • Amazingly realistic virtual labs and activities bring science concepts to life—with no

clean-up! • Ability for students to submit responses to teachers online • Preferences Navigator for customizing lesson plans • Online Classroom Management allows teachers to assign homework, receive reports

and track progress This document demonstrates the success students will achieve using Pearson’s Interactive Science.

Physical Science Prepared Graduates:

• Apply an understanding of atomic and molecular structure to explain the properties of matter, and predict outcomes of chemical and nuclear reactions

Concepts and skills students master: 1. All matter is made of atoms, which are far too small to see directly through a light microscope. Elements have unique atoms and thus, unique properties. Atoms themselves are made of even smaller particles Evidence Outcomes Students Can:

a. Identify evidence that suggests there is a fundamental building block of matter (DOK 1)
