by Robert W. Wood The book was written to open the door to, and invite your students into, the World of Science. There they can explore, think and wonder - and find out that anyone can experiment and learn; that the only thing you truly need to study science is an inquiring mind; and that science is all around us, all you have to do is look! This wonderful book features more than 250 kid-tested experiments covering geography, chemistry, meteorology, geology, animal biology, plant biology and engineering. Simple experiments and activities show students how to build a mountain to demonstrate contour lines, observe how heat makes chemicals change; use Epsom salt to form stalactites and stalagmites, measure the weight of the atmosphere, start an ant colony, build a two-ring paper airplane and more! Also includes information on science fair projects. Ages 8-12. Glossary index, 491 pp., softcover.
