Nice NSTA Review of Awesome Animal Science Projects


The NSTA (National Science Teachers Association) has just published a nice review of Awesome Animal Science Projects, written by Ann Benbow and Colin Mably.

The review starts off with: "Everyday, elementary school students ask questions like this: "Can you train a goldfish?" The science teacher brain switches on to resond: "In what ways can we find out?" The then the reality sets in for the teacher. Can we discover the answer?"

This series shows the way. The full review can be found on the NSTA Recommends website: http://www.nsta.org/recommends/ViewProduct.aspx?ProductID=19457# .

There are also terrific illustrations of the experiments by Tom Labaff. For more information on this title, please visit http://www.enslow.com/displayitem.asp?type=1&item=2667.
