Great resource for the sciences., August 22, 2001
This review is from: Barron's Science Study Dictionary (Paperback)
I believe that Barron's Science Study Dictionary is a must have resource for any one teaching (homeschooling) or just trying to understand the homework your child brings home from school. The definitions are easy to read and understand, and many include diagrams. In the back of the book are some zany science facts that you will find funny and interesting.

Excellent Memory Jogger and Homework Aid, December 28, 2008
This review is from: Barron's Science Study Dictionary (Paperback)
As a former teacher, I know that homework can be a problem for the student who doesn't "get" basic concepts--and for the parent trying to help who hasn't had a science course since high school. This dictionary is perfect for both. It gives basic definitions (for ex.: difference between a mixture and a compound), scientific charts and formulas, and concept explanations. This particular dictionary works well for middle school and high school students--and makes a nice reference for the teacher's desk.
