DESCRIPTION

This physical and life science supplemental curriculum is designed for students entering grades 5 through 8. By performing the experiments in this kit and completing exercises in the accompanying workbook, students will lay the groundwork for success in natural science courses in school.

The content is correlated to the National Science Education Standards for middle school level physical and life science.

The hands-on experiments enliven the learning process, adding powerful first-hand experiences to their science education. This is an effective way to not only teach important scientific concepts and knowledge, but also to foster an inquisitive attitude and a deep interest in the exploration of the world through science. Students will also gain familiarity with commonly used science terms, methods, and tools, preparing them for future studies.

In the kit, there are 45 topics with three experiments each: an easy introductory experiment, a more involved experiment, and a challenging experiment for more advanced students. In this way, the students are both encouraged and challenged.

Some of the experiment topics include:

mass, volume, length and area
heat and temperature
the human body
chemical reactions
soil analysis, plants and seeds
properties of water
light, lenses, refraction and reflection
pressure
flight
phases of matter
density
buoyancy
force and motion
important properties of various chemicals, acids and bases
indicators
animal observations
optics
filtration
weather
rockets
electricity, batteries, circuits, and magnetism

The full-color, 96-page experiment manual provides illustrated instructions and explanations, and the black-and-white, 48-page workbook guides students through each of the 135 experiments and allows them to record their findings.

Ages 10 and up.

This is a great general science kit for kids. I have bought some other Thames and Kosmos kits from Discover This and they do not disappoint. The illustrations are so well done and seem to grab kids' attention.
