Physical Science Homework Series
Take advantage of the
many resources students have at home – such as freezers and sinks – to
assign meaningful homework in which students learn by doing. (Warning:
Siblings and parents may learn something too.) Save hours of valuable class
time as students complete these 20 safe experiments (and clean up) at home.
Easy-to-follow, illustrated reproducible instructions and worksheets are
provided for each experiment. All experiments are correlated to the National
Science Standards and follow a science fair-style approach. Detailed
background information and discussion prompts are provided for every
assignment. Science topics include density, pressure, heat, sound, light,
levers, pulleys, pressure, electricity, chemistry, and more.
Materials provided for
10 students per experiment in this 400+ piece kit.
Includes letter to
parents in English and Spanish.
