Odyssey™

Science for grades 5-9

Science explains and enhances everything we do. Each month, ODYSSEY journeys into other dimensions - of space, technology, the environment, the human body, mathematics, and emerging areas - in a way that shows kids just how cool science can be. Each theme-based issue of this classroom magazine delves into topics in depth, in a magazine that is both visually and intellectually exciting and entertaining.

In addition to robust nonfiction articles, here is a sampling of the regular features you'll find in each issue of ODYSSEY magazine for grades 5-9:

• Science Scoops: Short news items about cutting-edge science
• "Your Turn" and "What Do You Think" give students the opportunity to respond to science-in-society issues

• You've Got Mail: A regular department includes readers' random letters and responses to our questions throughout the issue.
