A Look at Life Science

Everyone knows what a plant or animal is, but sometimes,
what we might call a plant is actually a protist. Or is it a fungus? The six
major groups of organisms on Earth are an essential part of life science
curricula. Written especially for struggling readers or those in need of review,
each book in this set focuses on one group, including its main physical
characteristics, ways of making or consuming food, and examples of different
kinds within its major grouping.

• Expanded glossary allows readers access to
quick explanations of important vocabulary

• Fact boxes provide readers more
context within the science curriculum or provide further explanation of the main
text

• Graphic organizers emphasize important concepts
