Science Essentials, Grades 3-4
Good supplemental material for home study. Lessons are short enough to be fun, but have some meat. The biggest drawback is the book introduces a subject with little or no preparation. This can be solved by using the DK Astronomy or Universe books for further information.As a stand-alone science book, I would not recommend this book, but as a tool to encourage early research skills, this book will do nicely.

Great Book
I love this workbook's many engaging activities for 3-4th grade. Daughter is just getting into it. I love the Periodic Table in back w/ elements as stickers. I already know that she'll enjoy doing it. There are lots of hands-on activities and experiments, including the "erupting volcano" one that I've always wanted to try. This workbook doesn't "beat over the head" with evolution (got over dinosaurs and claim that earth is MILLIONS of years old on the first page). In short, I haven't seen other references to evolution yet (and do not see it in glossary) and that is encouraging for creationist-minded homeschooling families. Great workbook!

It's ok
I was really hoping this would be like the social studies version. Where there are small reading that you can build work sheets off of. I'm going to keep this book but it's not what I really wanted

Home schooling material
My sister bought this to accommodate her science curriculum for home schooling. It is great to have the kids look up information on.

excellent book that covers most of the science topics
Kids can even read this book themselves and understand it. There is less supervision required. My daughter does itt. She is home schooled and she loves it. Home schooling is the way to go with books like these. Thanks

Ok for homeschooling with additional research
We've had this for about 6 months now and I use for homeschooling my 10 yo. This workbook is not a complete lesson book, however, it gives the basic information and research will be needed to understand completely. I do like the hands on projects and ideas.
