Students will enjoy connecting batteries, wires and bulbs in various combinations to try to make bulbs light. Snap-on wire clips enable students to make connections between the batteries and bulbs quickly. A chart of various arrangements for connecting the batteries and bulbs is provided. The student studies the chart, predicts which arrangement will light the bulb and which will not, then connects the real batteries and bulbs (following the diagrams) to prove or disprove original predictions. Purchase size "D" batteries separately.

Set of 10 additional student charts and mineral samples for use with the What Mineral Is It? classroom project (Item # 12044).
Ninety percent of Earth is made of minerals, natural materials that form the building blocks of the solid structures on our planet. In Minerals, students will examine the makeup of a mineral as they review such properties as hardness, luster, cleavage, streak, color and density. Learn where minerals can be found, and see the many different uses of these natural wonders, which include powder, tools, jewelry and medicine. A visit to an old silver mine shows how miners removed valuable silver ore over 100 years ago, while a fun, hands-on investigation demonstrates the crystalline structure of minerals. Part of the Earth Science in Action DVD Series. A Teacher's Guide is included and available online. 23 minutes. Grades 5 to 8.
For thousands of years, humans dreamed of flying -- but it isn't as easy as birds make it look. Students will learn about lift, gravity, thrust and drag -- the forces that are used to get tons of steel off the ground and carry people thousands of miles before landing safely. They will also discover the role atoms and air pressure play in this amazing task as well as in other forms of flight. An interesting hands-on activity is included along with fun, real-life demonstrations to further illustrate these concepts. One of 16 volumes in the Physical Science in Action DVD Series in the Schlessinger Science Library. Part of the Schlessinger Science Library in Action Collection. This title correlates to the National Science Education Standards for Physical Science -- properties and changes in properties of matter, motions and forces and transfer of energy. A Teacher's Guide is included and available online. 23 minutes. Grades 5 to 8.
