Study of the chemical composition of toothpastes. Students evaluate several toothpastes for percent of solids, pH, foam formation, abrasive action, specific substances. They use this data to make judgments about their effectiveness. Materials for 12 pairs of students. Grades 7-12.
An economy model planetarium. Moon, Earth and Venus globes are rotated, revolved separately by hand. The twilight zone ring enables young students to better understand the nature of dawn and dusk. Underarm chain drive keeps the North Pole pointing to Polaris, the North Star. Durable, colorful plastic with brass and steel parts. Complete quality planetarium at a low price.
The Solar System as seen from earth. This model shows the five planets and moon as Ptolemy described them in his famous book, "The Almagest". It describes accurately all the naked eye phenomena of our Solar System. The fact that most of the motions described by this geocentric system are incorrect cannot detract from the fact that to the unaided human eye all these incorrectly described motions appear correct. The use of the Ptolemaic model together with the Copernican model improves student understanding of the motions of the heavenly bodies. 14" high x 20" long. With fully-illustrated instruction book.
A creative way for children to learn astronomy concepts. Players toss the 24" ball to each other and call out the answers to the problem found under their left thumb. Many variations of play! Includes a list of game suggestions with directions and answers! For grades 4-8.

A very simple, easy and economical way of measuring melting points. The apparatus consists of an aluminum block 2.5" (62mm) in diameter by 2" (50mm) high, with a slanted hole to accept a thermometer. The testing material is sprinkled on the top of the block and the block is heated with a heat source like a bunsen burner. As soon as the material starts to melt the reading on the thermometer is the melting point. This apparatus can be used to measure melting points upto 250 degrees C. Stand and thermometer not included.

To study and demonstrate heat absorption and radiation. Consists of two metal concave plates one white and the other painted black with thermometer holders on the back, and in-between is a lamp, heat source. When the lamp is switched on and the temperature is measured of the metal plates, it can be studied which one absorbs heat quicker and more than the other. After the lamp is turned off, we can also study which losses heat quicker. Lamp operates on 12VDC. Base Size 7.75" x 7.75" x 0.5". Metal plates are 3.75" in dia. Total height of unit 5.5". One bulb included, thermometers not included.

Students fill one container with water at room temperature and the other with boiling water. A thermometer is placed in each container and the water temperature in both cups read before heat transfer. The metal bar is then immersed in the cups, and students observe heat lost by boiling water and heat gained in the cooler water. Each kit includes: 2 insulated containers; 2 insulated lids with slots; 1 U-shaped aluminum transfer bar; 2 thermometers 20 degrees to 110 degrees. Additional materials required: low-temperature thermometer.
