Temperate Forest Experiments: 8 Science Experiments in One Hour or Less by 
Creating Science Fair Projects with Cool New Digital Tools by
A science fair project is an opportunity for teens to choose a subject of interest, investigate it using the scientific method, and share their findings. While the scientific method never goes out of date, much about science fair research and presentation has changed with the advent of digital tools. Readers learn how they can use digital tools to brainstorm a question, research and take notes, collaborate with teammates, record and organize data, and create presentations using multimedia. As required by the Common Core, readers learn to use technology to produce and publish their work and to collaborate with others.
Winning Science Fair Projects by
This new series uses everyday objects (kitchen utensils, doorbells), familiar critters (ants!), and readily available substances (air and water), to create winning science fair projects for upper elementary and middle-school kids. Each title includes step-by-step instructions that enable kids to create their own independent science fair projects, as well as the underlying scientific concept learned during the experiment This series meets national science education standards.

Offering a new variety of science projects for kids to try, More Winning Science Fair Projects provides another resource for more experiment ideas not covered in Winning Science Fair Projects. Middle school students will find everything they need to design experiments that demonstrate the physics of sound, electromagnetism, and motion, to name a few. Tocci uses everyday objects, such as kitchen utensils, doorbells, familiar critters, and readily available substances air and water to create winning science fair projects for middle school kids. Tocci s step-by-step instructions enable kids to create their own independent science fair projects. Subjects covered include: Density Desiccants Diffusion Electromagnets Enzymes Gravity Momentum Preservatives Sound Vitamins.

Science Experiments That Explode and Implode by
Get ready to make shooting rockets, slow motion explosions, and soda gushers. With just a few household items, you can create these science experiments and more. You'll also find out what causes these projects to implode and explode. Science has never been this much fun!
The Book of Potentially Catastrophic Science by
It's never been more important to engage a child's scientific curiosity, and Sean Connolly knows just how to do it--with lively, hands-on, seemingly "dangerous" experiments that pop, ooze, crash, and teach! Now, the author of The Book of Totally Irresponsible Science, takes it one step further: He leads kids through the history of science, and then creates amazing yet simple experiments that demonstrate key scientific principles. Tame fire just like a Neanderthal with the Fahrenheit 451 experiment. Round up all your friends and track the spread of "disease" using body glitter with an experiment inspired by Edward Jenner, the vaccination pioneer who's credited with saving more lives than any other person in history. Rediscover the wheel and axle with the ancient Sumerians, and perform an astounding experiment demonstrating the theory of angular momentum. Build a simple telescope--just like Galileo's--and find the four moons he discovered orbiting Jupiter (an act that helped land him in prison). Take a less potentially catastrophic approach to electricity than Ben Franklin did with the Lightning Mouth experiment. Re-create the Hadron Collider in a microwave with marshmallows, calculator, and a ruler--it won't jeopardize Earth with a simulated Big Bang, but will demonstrate the speed of light. And it's tasty! By letting kids stand on the shoulders of Aristotle, Newton, Einstein, the Wright brothers, Marie Curie, Darwin, Watson and Crick, and more, The Book of Potentially Catastrophic Science is an uncommonly engaging guide to science, and the great stories of the men and women behind the science.
