Science Video and Handbook: See What Science Is All About

See What Science Is All About covers all major topics on Earth, Life and Physical Science at two levels (introductory and intermediate). This video prgoram is designed for elementary teachers and will allow you to learn science the easy way and introduce many new demonstrations, activities and experiments to your students! Watch a short segment of video, then teach those concepts with confidence! Pick some of the hundreds of activities shown then duplicate them in your classroom. It's easy, it's interesting, and most importantly, this video encyclopedia of science will make you a better science teacher!

Topics covered include:

• Earth Science: Astronomy, Geology, Oceanography, Meteorology
• Life Science: Genetics, Plants, Animals, Humans, Ecosystems
• Physical Science: Matter, Mechanics, Heat, Light, Sound, Electricity, Magnetism

Introductory Videos

• K-3 Earth Science (1 hr 23 min)
• K-3 Physical Science Part 1 (1 hr 8 min)
• K-3 Physical Science Part 2 (1 hr 5 min)
• K-3 Life Science (2 hr 8 min)

Intermediate Videos

• 4-6 Physical Science, Part 1 (1 hr 54 min)
• 4-6 Physical Science, Part 2 (1 hr 34 min)

The set includes all 8 VHS videos and a 155 page printed outline in a notebook. With these video workshops you can view a vast amount of information in a very short time. Instantly see how plant experiments progress over a two week period or how a chemical reaction looks a day later. Learn how to identify rock types, flower parts, cloud formations and simple machines. See how to explain why a rainbow is curved and what causes the moon's phases. Learn about atoms, experiment with acids and bases, or build a rubber band model of a human muscle. Use a garden hose to demonstrate the speed of sound, a tin can to make a pinhole camera, a balloon and some dry cereal to explain static electricity, and much more! This program is great for both new and seasoned teachers.
