Editorial Reviews

From School Library Journal
Grade 3-8?Family science-experiment ideas presented by San Francisco's Exploratorium, a museum that supports the principle of "hands-on, minds-on." The staff covers a wide variety of topics from mirrors to structures to taking things apart. Activities labeled "Kids Can Do It!" can be done by readers on their own. Those called "Exploring Together" would be best done in conjunction with adults. A handy illustration of a clock gives children an idea of how long the experiment should take. Proper precautions are given for safety. Photographs and cartoonlike illustrations enhance the clearly explained directions. Youngsters will appreciate the abundance of ideas suggested here from dissecting a floppy disk or cassette tape to the more common growing of different kinds of crystals or molds. The list for further reading is divided by books for children, books for adults without a science background, and books for adults with a science background. An excellent addition to science shelves.?Blair Christolon, Prince William Library, Manassas, VA

5.0 out of 5 stars Science Teacher Resource Material, May 13, 2007
By Jay Schufman (Little Falls, MN USA) - See all my reviews
This volume from the Exploratorium in San Francisco is a must resource for all Middle School and Junior High School science teachers. Don't requisition it -- just buy it -- before it's completely out of print and gone! js
