Describes experiments that can be performed with plants in order to learn about their properties, including whether roots grow before stems, the importance of light, and how plants drink water.
Sunlight, air, water, and minerals help keep plants alive. But do you know how much water is needed for a seed to sprout? Or what a plant will do to find the light it needs? Let's experiment to find out! Simple step-by-step instructions help readers explore key science concepts. Projects include materials easily found around the house and will inspire learning and creativity!
Sunlight helps a plant make its own food using photosynthesis. But do you know what happens to a plant when there is no sunlight? Or what part of a plant makes food? Let's experiment to find out! Simple step-by-step instructions help readers explore science concepts and analyze information.
Describes experiments that can be performed with seeds in order to learn about their properties such as how water temperature affects seeds, the direction roots grow, and the effect of talk on plant growth.
Audisee® eBooks with Audio combine professional narration and text highlighting for an engaging read aloud experience! Plants have roots, stems, leaves, and sometimes flowers. Each part of a plant does a special job. But do you know what a stem does? Or how different seeds travel away from their parent plants? Let's experiment to find out! Simple step-by-step instructions help readers explore science concepts and analyze information.
Directions for simple experiments which require only a microscope and household objects to prove some basic scientific facts about plants, animals, and human beings.

Read and Experiment is an engaging series that uses fun experiments to introduce children to analytical thinking, scientific concepts and experimental procedures. Through fun, carefully designed experiments, it encourages children to get hands-on with science, asking questions and seeking their own answers by following the illustrated step-by-step instructions. The title gets them familiar with the science of plants.
What happens if you water plants with juice? Where can you find bacteria in your house? Is slug slime as strong as a glue stick? How would your child find the answers to these questions? In The Curious Kid's Science Book, your child will learn to design his or her own science investigations to determine the answers! Children will learn to ask their own scientific questions, discover value in failed experiments, and — most importantly — have a blast with science. The 100+ hands-on activities in the book use household items to playfully teach important science, technology, engineering, and math skills. Each creative activity includes age-appropriate explanations and (when possible) real life applications of the concepts covered. Adding science to your at-home schedule will make a positive impact on your child's learning. Just one experiment a week will help build children's confidence and excitement about the sciences, boost success in the classroom, and give them the tools to design and execute their own science fair projects.
