Science is not all about the facts. It's about the evidence! Scientists often launch into unexpected directions as they follow where the evidence leads. Learn how to navigate through the scientific inquiry journey and analyze evidence to discover truth. Fifth-grade readers will learn all about authentic scientific evidence and its role in each of the eight main science practices through this high-interest informational text filled with vibrant photographs. Aligned to the Next Generation Science Standards, a hands-on "Think Like a Scientist" lab activity and a "Your Turn" page at the end of the book support STEM Education and provide young scientists with an opportunity to apply what they've learned in the text. Helpful diagrams and text features, such as a glossary and index, are also included to reinforce content-area literacy and improve close reading.
