Light Reflection & Refraction Book

Here's proof, illumination does lead to understanding, as students take part in a variety of activities designed to look deeply into the subject of light. This award-winning volume gets students involved hands-on with activities that explore these concepts: Where does light come from? Transparent, translucent, opaque, prisms, colors of light, how we see, and magnification. Other activities: how light travels, reflection, reflected art, Seeing is believing?, and more. Skills challenged include: predicting, observing, recording, following directions, cooperating, and critical thinking. Everything's here to help you make each project a success -- organizational procedures, required and optional materials lists (readily available), teaching suggestions, and complete, step-by-step directions for all projects. Also features a two-sided, full-color (one side) pull-out poster about Light (and the spectrum) on one side and Your Eyes Can Fool You on the other side. Illustrated throughout with helpful line art as well as fun recurring "mouse" characters. All 16 pages perforated for easy removal.

Here are teacher demonstrations, student hands-on activities, and student journals, plus a two-sided poster in each book that presents information on one side, and a learning game on the other. It is science education at its best, balancing process and content. 16 pp. each plus two-sided poster each.

We were thrilled when this series was given the "Teacher's Choice Award" by Learning Magazine. Their teacher panels gave the awards after using the materials in dozens of classrooms. The Intelligent and humorous Professor leads students from wonder through inquiry to testing theories. It isscience education at its best, balancing process and content.
