I teach grades 6-8 science at a small rural school. I have to prep a lesson for each grade almost every day plus I teach 7th grade SS. I am the only MS science teacher here. I've tried teaching without textbooks this year, but it was difficult and not very fruitful. I have old Glencoe Integrated Science textbooks that I just didn't like when I came on board this past September. We are moving to Earth (6), Life (7), and Physical (8). Does anyone have any suggestions as to which MS science textbooks are the best? Any guidance would be greatly appreciated!!!
