Sammy and his friends give students an exciting introduction to the wonders of science. In five fascinating activities, students build early science skills and practice important scientific processes. They also expand their science vocabulary as they learn about plants, animals seasons and weather. Students build toys and machines, make their own weather and arrange pictures in sequences to make movies. They also sort plants, animals and minerals into colorful bins, and learn about wildlife of Acorn Pond.

• Built-in levels of difficulty keep students challenged.

• Instructions, questions and feedback are graphical or spoken, allowing students to work independently.

• Visual and auditory cues enhance comprehension and help foster learning success.

• Printing options allow students to print the machines and toys they create in the Workshop as well as pages from the Field Notebook.

In the Field Notebook, students can print sketches and facts about Acorn Pond
