What educators are saying
Description
Let's journal! Science Interactive Notebook All in One Bundle is perfect for teachers who are looking to incorporate Interactive Science Notebooks in 3rd grade, 4th grade, 5th grade, or 6th grade. There are SO many topics: safety and science practices, matter, mixtures, ecosystems, adaptations, life cycles, energy, light, force and motion, human body, earth, space, and MUCH more!
Take a closer look! Download the preview for 10 free printables.
This file includes 260 foldable activities, cut and paste, sorts, and graphic organizers. There are also ideas and resources for setting up your science notebook. You'll love the example photos, notebook ideas, and all the options!
WHY ALL IN ONE?
I offer the notebook as one amazing pack because:
- Science standards vary greatly by state. What is taught in 4th in Ohio may be taught in 5th in Texas, in 3rd in North Carolina, and not at all in California. There's just that much of a difference.
- If you need to review skills or content from earlier grade levels (don't we all?), the templates are right there ready for you.
- Many activities apply to multiple grade levels since they are open-ended.
- If you change grade levels, you are set!
- We know you won't use all 260 templates in one year. That's why the price remains at the cost of one year worth of notebook templates.
STANDARDS
This notebook works great with 3rd, 4th, and 5th grade NGSS, TEKS, and pretty much any state standards.

Teachers love it!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ "I LOVE the update - especially with how current the Tools & Skills pack is. It is inclusive and relatable for students to learn about science and how they connect with it within their world. I have used the last version for the last few years in my classroom and I feel like I can reinvent my teaching to suit the needs of individual students within my class and they all are successful. I love it! Thank you for the fantastic products!" -CS
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ "I purchased this to use alongside the curriculum our district provides me, the parent of a fourth grader, through their homeschool/independent study program. I love how there are examples for each of the different pages. It is evident that a lot of time and care went into creating this resource!" -Susana W.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ "This bundle is worth every penny. I was hesitant to buy this but the sheer scope and variety of these notables is AMAZING!!!! It really is a fun way to take notes and hone in some very challenging principles and concepts in science! Perfect for middle school. I am very happy with my purchase and it was worth every, single penny!"
