About this Book:
|
|
Lab science is experimenting, or playing around, with stuff to find out what happens. Science is something students do.
Doing science is the philosophy behind Science in the Kitchen. Susan K. Stewart helps eliminate science-phobia by showing how to use any curriculum at home, where to get science supplies, and takes the mystery out of the big three: physics, biology, and chemistry. This unique approach will help you with
* Understanding what science is
* Using common household items
* Developing a science course
* Sample lesson plans
* Sample labs
* Resources for lab equipment & science studies

Book Review:
|
|
"From the backyard to the kitchen -- Susan's book takes up where the Backyard Scientist series left off, debunking the myth that high school science courses require a home school family to invest in expensive laboratory equipment and supplies. Science in the Kitchen will make biology, chemistry, and physics user-friendly no matter which curriculum is being used."
