Grade 8 Science Resources
The following resources are available from the TRC to support the grade 8 science
curriculum. For further information regarding the resources listed below, please go to our
online catalogue and search using the title OR do a subject search using the title of the unit
(ie: Optics and vision).
For those of you who are familiar with our big theme boxes, we are trying smaller kits of
less than 10 books in order that more teachers may be able to make use of our resources.
For that reason, we ask that you do not book all available resources for a unit but choose
instead the ones you think will be most useful for your purposes.
