This resource provides a comprehensive review of essential 4th-grade science concepts, focusing on energy transfer and collisions, ecosystems, and Earth's landforms. Students will explore how energy moves through various forms such as electrical, sound, and mechanical energy. The material includes detailed explanations of energy transfer during everyday activities, like using appliances, and illustrates how collisions affect object motion and energy transfer. It also covers the role of senses in animals, specifically how they help in survival, with examples like the nine-banded armadillo. Furthermore, students learn about invasive species and their impact on ecosystems and analyze weathering and erosion processes through scientific inquiry and experimentation. The review is aligned with the LEAP 2025 assessment standards, encouraging students to apply inquiry skills, analyze data, and construct evidence-based explanations.
