science projects

Explores the planet Earth, including why the Earth has layers, why it is round, and how continents move, through facts and experiments.

"By doing the simple science projects in this book, young scientists will discover if air has weight, if one can make a cloud, and the reason the sky is blue. The experiments use materials found at home or at school. Young scientists can take what they've learned from these experiments and use suggestions to create their own unique science fair projects. Detailed explanations explain the science used in each experiment"--Provided by publisher.

"Illustrated instructions for experiments pertaining to changes on Earth, including plate tectonics, erosion, the greenhouse effect, and glaciers"--Provided by publisher.

"Cece's parents say she was born curious. She asks: Why? How? What if? When her teacher, Ms. Curie, assigns a science project, Cece knows just what to ask--do dogs eat vegetables? She teams up with her best friend, Isaac, and her dog, Einstein, to discover the answer. They investigate, research, collect data, and analyze, using Einstein as their case study. Their final conclusion is surprising, and a lot of fun!"--Provided by publisher.

"Eleven-year-old Fern helps to take care of her impoverished family by foraging for food in the forest, but when a fracking company rolls into town, she realizes that her peaceful woods and her family's livelihood could be threatened"--Provided by publisher.

An introduction to magnets using simple experiments.

"A book for middle schoolers with safe, practical earth science experiments they can perform at home."--.

"A book for young students containing safe chemistry experiments they can perform at home."--.

Presents over twenty experiments intended to be executed at home, including crafting an hourglass, creating crystals, building a m?eobius strip, and exploring computer circuits.

Heatproof, transparent, and durable, the mason jar is a science lab just waiting to be discovered. Unlock its potential with 40 dynamic experiments for budding scientists ages 8 and up. Using just a jar and a few ordinary household items, children learn to create miniature clouds, tiny tornadoes, small stalactites, and, of course, great goo and super slime! With a little ingenuity, the jar can be converted into a lava lamp, a water prism, a balloon barometer, and a compass. Each fun-packed project offers small-scale ways to illustrate the big-picture principles of chemistry, botany, biology, physics, and more.
