Riassunto

What's the effect of osmosis on a raisin

How is water transported through plant stems

What's the best way to grow penicillin

How are butterflies different from moths

Now kids can discover the answers to these and other fascinating questions about biology—the study of living organisms. Packed with illustrations, Biology for Every Kid uses simple problems and activities to teach kids ages 8 through 12 about the world of plants, the animal kingdom, and the amazing human body

Kids will learn how to talk with fireflies using only a jar and a flashlight, and watch bacteria wage war in a glass of milk. They'll discover how to tell the temperature by counting cricket chirps, and explore sensitivity to taste by eating pieces of apple and onion while wearing a blindfold on the eyes and clothespin on the nose

Each of the 101 experiments is broken down into its purpose, a list of materials, step-by-step instructions, expected results, and an explanation that kids can understand. Every project has been pretested and can be performed safely and inexpensively in the classroom or at home

When learning science means doing science,learning becomes an adventure
