Inquiry-Driven Science Review for SC READY
South Carolina Coach, Science moves students through every tested science standard with direct instruction and embedded Science and Engineering Practices, then puts those practices to work in two hands-on investigations. The books offer comprehensive review and extensive practice in one place, built around the rigorous content and item types students will see on the SC READY Science Assessments.
Because it’s designed for Tier 1 and Tier 2 use, teachers can fold it into whole-class lessons or small group work, or assign it as homework, layering in targeted SC READY review whenever students need it, without reworking the core curriculum.
