BJU Press Earth Science Student Text (5th Edition)

The BJU Press Earth Science Student Text, 5th Edition introduces 8th grade students to the world from the ground up - students will study the foundations of the earth (including its structures, land features, earthquakes, and other natural phenomena), as well as the surface of the earth and types of rocks and soils, oceans and bodies of water, the atmosphere, and space science.

Each chapter opens with a story that highlights issues and developments in earth science from the perspective of a biblical worldview. Sections have an essential "big question," objectives, an engaging lesson, review questions, and info boxes with additional information on a variety of topics. Important terms are bolded; terms that have important etymologies or other information are in blue. Chapter summaries include a bullet pointed list of section big ideas as well as review questions and a vocabulary list.
