CPO Focus on Life Science Grade 7


Student Textbook

The CPO Focus on Life Science student textbook brings key concepts to life for students with comprehensive content, large labeled diagrams, and biological process illustrations. The nature of cells, the human body, heredity, evolution, DNA structure, and the function of DNA are just some of the exciting topics covered in the textbook. Important ideas in life science such as the organization of life, cell structure, cell function, and reproduction are reinforced throughout the text.

Reading strategies are built right into the text to aid comprehension. Science information is presented as one idea per page while content-rich illustrations and diagrams are found next to the relevant text. Easy-to-find main headings, sub-headings and side notes guide your students through the content. Vocabulary words are defined in special boxes on the same page where they are introduced. Chapter assessments, skill sections, real world connections, and chapter activities further extend your students' learning.
