CONTENTS OVERVIEW
Introduction SCIENCE: A Tool For Solving Problems Do you always assume there’s someone ‘out there’ who will find solutions for problems our world faces? What if that someone is you? This introduction will tell you about tools you can use to solve problems and make discoveries about our world.
Unit 1 STORMSWeather Prediction/The Approaching Storm Severe Weather/The Storm Center The Effects Of Storms/Aftermath Of The Storm
Where do storms come from? How do they form? What kind of damage do they do? Are all of the effects of storms harmful? The information in this unit will help you understand the causes and effects of storms.
Unit 2ECOLOGY Biotic And Abiotic Factors/Organisms And Their Environments Cycling Of Matter And Energy/Ecosystems In Balance Changes In Ecosystems/Upsetting The Balance
Like parts of a mobile, ecosystems hang in a delicate balance. If you disturb one part, all parts are disturbed. But over time a new balance is reached. Whether it’s a forest, a coral reef or a busy city, learn more about how ecosystems change and recover in Unit 2.
Unit 3FOOD Biochemistry/What’s In The Food You Eat? Photosynthesis/Solar-Powered Recycling Soil Formation/The Life-Giving Earth Chemistry Of Food/From Field To Table
Food is the means by which organisms obtain energy to live. But how does energy get into the food? How does an organism release that energy? How do plants obtain energy? How is food preserved to keep it safe to eat? The answers to these questions are served up in Unit 3.
Unit 4 RESOURCESResources/Earth’s Limited Treasures The Formation Of Resources/Finding Earth’s Treasures Petroleum Chemistry/Petroleum Power Recycling/Saving Limited Resources
Shiny black coal is one of the Earth’s most abundant, important resources. What other resources does Earth hold? How are they extracted from Earth’s surface? Can we make sure the supply of coal and other important resources will last? Dig into Unit 4 to find out.
Unit 5SHELTER Earth’s Crust In Motion/Building On Stable Ground Structures And Materials/Choosing The Right Materials Forces And Machines/Building A House Transfer Of Thermal Energy/Heating And Cooling Electrical Energy/More Power To You
How do people solve the problems of providing shelter? In this unit, find out how sites are selected for buildings, what materials are used in construction, and how buildings are heated, cooled and provided with electricity. Pick up your hammer along with Unit 5 and let’s get started.
Unit 6 DISEASETypes Of Disease/Getting Sick Preventing And Treating Disease/Maintaining Your Health Detecting Disease/Examining The Causes Of Disease
You’re sneezing. Your eyes are watering. Is it an allergy? The flu? The common cold? Maybe you were exposed to a toxic substance. How are disease detected and classified? How are they prevented? Grab a tissue and turn to Unit 6 to find out.
Unit 7 FLIGHT Physics Of Flight/Getting Off The Ground Structures Of Flight/Soaring Birds And Planes Physics Of Space Flight/Flying Beyond Earth’s Atmosphere
What forces and fuels enable birds, planes and helicopters to fly? How is flight a necessary part of the life cycle of some plants and fungi? What forces do rockets use to escape Earth’s gravity? Unit 7 is a first-class ticket to answering these questions.
Please also see my posting of the BOOKS 4 How Science STINKY SMELLY Experiments FAIRS Projects AGES 7-14. It’s 4 science and tech books for the whole family to use and enjoy and show just how much fun, and how rewarding, science can be.
Please also see my posting of the GENERAL SCIENCE REAL SCIENCE Fairs KIT Made Easy. You will want to see this complete science kit for ages 8-12 and the whole family to explore, investigate and learn about the world of science together.
I have for sale a wonderful hands-on vintage book called THE BOY ELECTRICIAN 1956 SCIENCE PROJECT. This boy’s classic science book is worth it’s weight in gold bouillons. A lot of the supplies in the General Science: Real Science kit can be used with the experiments in THE BOY ELECTRICIAN book.
This is my private collection in a smoke-free environment.
SEARCH THE TITLE WORDS So far I have ALPHA PETS, EMILY RUBBER STAMP, and VIDEO rated for family viewing. I offer a great assortment of BOOK ideas for children pre-k to 1, 4-8 and 9-12, for example … they are PUZZLE, PUPPET, DVD, VHS, GAME and TOY items for adults and children.
