Students and parents need a head start to get into science fair projects, especially when it's the first year for you. Here you will find science books designed for children as early as the first grade and even kindergarten and pre-school. These books help to smooth out the learning curve. If you're not reading these books, chances are you can find them in the homes of many of your classmates. Science projects are used by schools to help children learn about science by hands-on experiments and demonstrations. Many parents need help in order to help their children get started. With these books, you don't need to be a science expert to put together a good project. Children learn better when the experience is fun and interesting. These books help get over the confusion and panic that many students and parents feel about their first science project. This way, learning can take place in a natural way driven by the child's innate curiosity. Do your research as early as possible in order to reduce stress and make the project a positive experience for the entire family. |

Grade 4-6. VanCleave continues to produce user-friendly volumes that make science great fun. The experiments are organized into five fields: astronomy, biology, chemistry, earth science, and physics. The activities themselves are printed two to a page and all are organized into the following components: purpose, materials, procedures, results, and why (an explanation of the scientific principle involved). Each entry is accompanied by a black-and-white line drawing that helps clarify and explain the process or concept. The author has a talent for framing scientific questions in terms that are sure to appeal to young people: "Purpose: To determine why dinosaur eggs were so small compared to the adult dinosaur." "Purpose: To determine how faults produce earthquakes." Some activities consist merely of observation, such as "To study parts of a feather." Some are more complex, but all are clearly and concisely explained. | |
