Beast Academy Science 3A

Overview

Beast Academy Science is the new elementary-school science curriculum from Art of Problem Solving. The Beast Academy Science series includes lessons, labs, comics, and games that will educate and delight young scientists ages 8-10.

Beast Academy Science 3A is the first in a two-part Level 3 science series. BA Science 3A content is aligned to the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) for grade 3, but often goes well beyond what is typically expected of students. Science 3A includes units on motion, weather, and survival. Together with 3B, Level 3 will be a complete science curriculum for motivated and curious students.

Beast Academy Science 3A covers the following topics:

Motion: Predicting motion and finding patterns, gathering evidence, understanding cause and effect, and engineering.
Weather: Temperature and precipitation, graphing weather, day length, sun angle, the atmosphere, and wind.
Survival: Habitats, competition, adaptations, feeding, protection, and cooperation.
