9780873551878: The Life Cycle of Everyday Stuff

Synopsis

Your students need to understand that stuff doesn't just happen - it has a life cycle. Using common products like the telephone, this lively book helps students learn about the flow of energy and matter through the Earth's system. Seven illustrated sections (useful as stand-alone units or as a cumulative program) give you hands-on activities to teach:

- What is a Life Cycle?
- How does product design influence the life cycle?
- What are products made of and why?
- How can products be less wasteful at the end of their useful lives?

Ideal for teachers who cover integrated science, physical science, environmental science, and Earth science.
