ScienceWiz(R) Chemistry: Solids, Liquids and Gases: Those candle-making, water-squirting, freezing-thawing, glop and mud pie experiments every child should do to explore the matter of matter. This is kitchen chemistry at its best! There are 29 all-time favorite projects in this highly visual, step by step Chemistry book, including:
- Capturing a CO2 explosion
- Squeezing an egg into a bottle
- Growing giant crystals
- Making candles
- Freezing liquids into solids
- Dying a flower from the inside out using capillary action
- Sinking and floating by adding salt or changing shape
- Dissolving solids into liquids, filtering and separating
The particular projects chosen prepare children to excel in science. They are primed to explore and later answer such question as: why do oil and water not mix; why does sugar dissolve in water; how does water travel upward into the leaves of plants; and why does ice float in water? The list is long.
This books is a classic illustration of how child's play can be structured to lead to scientific understanding. (Visit the ScienceWiz(R) Hybrid-learning on Charge, ( https: //sciencewiz.com/distance-learning/charge/ ) to understand how the specific projects in this chemistry book can lead to a deeper how-it-works understanding of the physical world around us. You can do most of the Charge projects with just a few balloons and everyday items.)Languages:EnglishPublisher:SciencewizISBN-13:9781958398043ISBN-10:1958398047UPC:9781958398043Book Category:Juvenile NonfictionBook Subcategory:Science & Nature, TechnologyBook Topic:Experiments & Projects, How Things Work/Are MadeSize:10.40 x 8.20 x 1.60 inchesWeight:0.97Product ID:SCA5H8SFV3
Ann Einstein, M.A.T. from George Washington University in Washington D.C., was a teacher in the Berkeley Unified School District. She has been involved with the education of children for most of her adult career as a director of early childhood education programs, as a teacher in gifted and talented programs and most recently as an elementary education teacher. She has been an editor of the ScienceWiz(TM) Books since 1994 when she edited the ElectroWiz(TM) Electricity book. Ann brings a clarity of mind and the capacity to see things through a child's eyes to the editing process. To quote an Einstein of an earlier generation:
"We never cease to stand like curious children before the great Mystery into which we were born." - Albert Einstein
