Science Literacy Bundle 4

Science Literacy Bundle 4 is a dynamic collection of twelve Lexile-leveled readers designed to expand young minds with deeper scientific insights and imaginative, real-world connections. With an exciting mix of physics, biology, chemistry, and astronomy, this bundle continues the journey into scientific literacy with captivating clarity and curiosity-driven storytelling.

Softcover, 24 pages each, full color.

This bundle spans a Lexile range of 470L–510L and features topics that explore movement, life processes, chemical changes, and the cosmos:

Bacteria and Archaea (470L) – Meet Earth’s oldest and simplest life forms—tiny yet powerful microbes that thrive in boiling springs, ocean vents, and even your own body.

Mammals (480L) – Meet the warm-blooded, fur-covered creatures of the animal kingdom and learn what makes them unique among vertebrates.

Viruses (480L) – Explore what viruses are, how they spread, and the roles they play in both illness and science.

DNA (480L) – Discover the molecule of life, its double-helix structure, and how it carries instructions for all living things.

Wheels on a Bike: A Look at Rotational Motion (480L) – Dive into the physics of spinning wheels, circular motion, and how bikes stay balanced.

Solids, Liquids, and Gases (490L) – Explore the three main states of matter and how everyday materials change form.

Inertia (490L) – Learn about this fundamental concept in physics that explains why objects resist changes to their motion.

Photosynthesis (500L) – Follow the journey of sunlight as it transforms into food for plants—and energy for nearly all life on Earth.

Sea Stars (500L) – Discover the fascinating world of echinoderms, how they regenerate limbs, and where they fit in marine ecosystems.

Marshmallows, Mud Pies, and Messy Rooms (500L) – Investigate the chemistry behind mixtures, solutions, and why some things just won’t stay clean.

Planets (510L) – Take a guided tour through our solar system, from rocky planets to gas giants and everything in between.

Duck-billed Platypus (510L) – Meet one of nature’s most curious creatures—a mammal that lays eggs, uses electroreception, and baffles scientists to this day.

Science Literacy Bundle 4 builds on the foundational skills of earlier bundles, offering students more sophisticated scientific ideas with the same clarity and accessibility. Each reader is designed to deepen comprehension, promote inquiry, and foster a lasting interest in science across disciplines. Whether used for independent study, classroom exploration, or cross-curricular STEM learning, this bundle supports critical thinking and a lifelong love of learning.

Introduce your readers to the marvels of microbes, the mysteries of life, the magic of chemistry, and the vastness of space—Science Literacy Bundle 4 is where science comes alive for the next generation of thinkers and explorers.
