5.0 out of 5 stars
A great resource book for preschool teachers,
This review is from: Science Arts: Discovering Science Through Art Experiences (Bright Ideas for Learning) (Paperback)
Like all of Mary Ann Kohl's books, this one is easily readable, with 1 activity listed per page, including pictures of the activity. It provides a reminder that science doesn't only happen at the science table! I often make my student interns choose an activity from this book (or MathArts)as the activities are open ended, process-oriented, and explained step by step. A great resource.

4.0 out of 5 stars
Wonderful way to integrate science and art!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Science Arts: Discovering Science Through Art Experiences (Bright Ideas for Learning) (Paperback)
What a wonderful and unique approach to science education! This book is jammed full of one-page "art experiments." The key is to use art projects to learn some science principles. Among many of the ideas to learn are dissolving, symmetry, reflecting light, gravity and friction. The only drawback is that the book could benefit from an introduction on the inquiry-based approach to learning...From The Science Spiders(TM) Newsletter.

5.0 out of 5 stars
I never realized how beautiful science can be.,
By A Customer
This review is from: Science Arts: Discovering Science Through Art Experiences (Bright Ideas for Learning) (Paperback)
I had never really thought how beautiful and mysterious and colorful and delightful science could be. This book inspires me, a person who has never really liked science all that much. Now I do! And I will pass that on to my kids when we do the Chromatography Art Experiment and separate colors on absorbant paper. Can't wait!
