The Focus On Elementary Biology Student Textbook, 3rd Edition introduces young students to the scientific discipline of biology. Students will learn about the history of the study of biology; tools used by biologists; characteristics of living things; how scientists sort living things into groups (taxonomy); cells and their makeup and functions; how plants make food (photosynthesis); parts of a plant and their functions; life cycles of plants, butterflies, and frogs; microscopic organisms (protists) and how they move and eat; viruses, bacteria, and archaea; fungi, molds, mushrooms, and yeasts;…mehr

Dr. Rebecca Woodbury Keller received her Ph.D. in biophysical chemistry from the University of New Mexico in 1992. She was awarded a National Science Foundation postdoctoral fellowship in the Department of Molecular Biology at the University of New Mexico, followed by a Burroughs Wellcome Fund Postdoctoral Fellowship in the Department of Molecular Biology at the University of California, Berkeley.While home schooling her three children, Dr. Keller was unable to find a curriculum that provided a solid foundation in science. She left academia, and using her scientific background coupled with her love of learning, she developed a series of science books for kids.The Real Science-4-Kids curriculum provides students with a solid foundation in science and gives them the tools to evaluate scientific data on their own. "We should not rely on the 'experts' but instead learn how to critically evaluate every scientific claim," states Dr. Keller."In these uncertain times with so many social, scientific, and economic problems, it is not enough to teach our kids what to learn. We must also teach them how to learn, and we must encourage our kids to learn from others. Part of learning from others is to know how to engage in productive debate."The Real Science-4-Kids curriculum, with its engaging, kid-friendly Student Textbooks; Laboratory Notebooks full of real science experiments; and easy to use Teacher's Manuals, provides kids with a solid science education in chemistry, biology, physics, geology, and astronomy. This curriculum is used in all 50 states in the US and many other countries. Dr. Keller and her publishing team continue to develop and test new products, including leveled readers and mini books, at the Real Science-4-Kids Albuquerque headquarters.
