Amplify Science (California) Grade 4, published by Amplify, is a Next Generation Science Standards-aligned curriculum that guides fourth-grade students through four interconnected units covering Earth science, physical science, and life science. Students investigate how fossils and rock layers reveal past environments, explore electrical energy and circuits through a storyline set in the fictional town of Ergstown, and examine how animals such as Tokay geckos and dolphins use light and sound to sense and communicate with their surroundings. The program emphasizes hands-on investigation and scientific reasoning, asking students to answer real-world driving questions about energy transfer, sensory systems, and the history recorded in Earth's rock record.
Amplify Science (California) Grade 4 covers 17 chapters and 36 lessons on Pengi.
