"Award-winning author Robert Gardner comes to the rescue of busy students everywhere. Each experiment in Tundra Experiments: 14 Experiments follows the scientific method, and is designed to be completed in under an hour. Discover why a tundra stays wet when it receives little rain, finding the energy (heat) needed to melt one gram of ice, build a model of the permafrost, and the science of solar heat and leaf color. There are also ideas for more science experiments if you have extra time"--Provided by the publisher.
"Waited until the last minute to get started? No problem! Each experiment in Grasslands Experiments: 11 Science Experiments In One Hour or Less follows the scientific method and can be completed in an hour or less. Make a climatogram for a city in the grasslands, experiment to find out why grasslands in the United States have seasons and find out how a prairie wind affects the evaporation of water. Experiments also include ideas for science fair projects in case you have extra time"--Provided by the publisher.
Explains how to build a light box and presents step-by-step instructions for nearly thirty physics experiments involving light boxes, which teach about reflection, refraction, images, shadows, and light and color.
Explains how to use the scientific method to conduct several science experiments about light, sound, and waves. Includes ideas for science fair projects.
