Science Workbooks

Hello fellow science teachers and learners,

I'm looking for a science workbook and I thought this community might have some suggestions.  

I'm currently teaching a class to prepare HSE students for the science portion of their HSE exam (which is the TASC in my state).  I'm looking for a workbook that I could suggest to my students to use at home for extra practice, or that I could use in class for practice questions, vocabulary, readings, etc.  Students always ask for this type of thing, and since the retirement of the old GED, I've been at a loss for suggestions.

Are there any books published over the past year that you have found to be helpful?  Or older books that still seem applicable for the new tests?  Any suggestions would be helpful!

I really like the Science Workshop Series from Pearson Learning. Here is the link:

What a good question, Meghan!  I agree that many students ask for this type of resource.  Thanks for your suggestion, Jon.  We look forward to other suggestions from this group!
