Read what people are saying about Science Experiments Volume 3: I found these e-books to be a great asset to our science curriculum. In both of the books, there is a page that categorizes each experiment according to where it takes place (indoors or outdoors) and which of the sciences it emphasizes. This helped immensely in the decision-making process. There were also many helpful hints for the coordinator of a swap. The experiments themselves were easy to use, with common materials and simple instructions. And one of the best things about this product is that each experiment is meant to cost only about a dollar to assemble. All of my children, ages 4-13, enjoyed this fun way to learn about the wonderful world around us and the amazing things God has created. Product review by Charlotte G., The Old Schoolhouse(R) Magazine, LLC, March 2010 The lab pages that are included have questions that are simple enough for students to complete on their own, and really get them thinking about what's happening during the experiment, it then goes on to help the student to understand what they are seeing and why. Your student will complete the lab questions independently during each step of their experiment, letting parents and teachers know they completed and understand the experiment. These experiments work great for our family! We did a couple of the experiments yesterday for our school and had so much fun with them! There are experiments like rockets, static electricity, 5 senses, etc. My kids also did a Static Balloon race, which was a blast. You rub the balloon on your head and then it will pull an empty soda can! The experiments are easy to make at home and fun to do.
