Reviews

Gr 3-4-Looking for hands-on science activities for upper elementary students? These guides start with a list of general supplies and definitions of science terms to know. Each activity is also rated on a "mess-o-meter," which is helpful in choosing among the projects. "What You Need" (supplies), "What You Do" (directions), and "What You Get" (explanation of the science at work) are accompanied by photos of the steps and the results. Readers are encouraged to mix up their own slime, build a brush bot, create soundproof headphones, or even concoct a stink bomb. A list of books and internet sites encourages learners to continue their explorations. VERDICT Engaging activities for class projects or individual discovery.α(c) Copyright 2011.
