I own a lot of "teaching" books. I have never had a book that had so much content that I could actually benefit from right away. This book is divided in such away to actually allow you to TEACH the most meaningful scientific processes that kids will need in all areas of science. It also has tons of cool experiments divided into the major science themes that kids will love that demonstrate these fundamental science concepts (induction vs deduction, indirect evidence to come to a conclusion, etc). It is FANTASTIC. You can teach content while teaching meaningful science techniques and skills.

What a great book! I've been teaching science for 19 years and don't remember a sourcebook that is as complete as this one. Old ideas and methods are revised and reviewed and new ideas are introduced and evaluated.

Very resourceful for all types of science subjects. Interchangable activities, very, very useful. Out of all the science subject sourcebooks I have purchased, this has been, by far the best and most useful.

I've been teaching high school chemistry for 20+ years. I bought this book as a gift for a recent college graduate. When I received the book and looked it over it had tons of information I thought was useful. I ordered one for myself.

This book has so many great ideas! It is perfect for a new science teacher whether you are interested in physics, chemistry, biology, or earth science.

This book has been so valuable to me as a science teacher. It is loaded full of valuable information and resources! EVERY science teacher should own this book!

This book is way overrated. I thought it was going to be very useful. It's not!! Most things in this book can't be used in the classroom, unless you have a lot of money, a smartboard, and a miracle. I'm highly disappointed that I paid this much for this book!!! Not what I expected at all!!!

This book is a good resource book. I cut it and spiral bound the book. Works much better. Take the time to really look thru the whole book.. good stuff. Good for the high school or middle school teacher.
