This Mystery of Science: Physics Lab Manual is a digital download that comes free with the purchase of the NEW Textbook, The Mystery of Science: Physics Student Reader, but for those using the book secondhand, this provides digital lab access for a family. Students explore concepts through guided experiments, research, and notebooking activities that bring the science text to life!
Each lesson follows a flexible 4–5-day plan and is adaptable to different ages and abilities, reinforcing vocabulary and critical thinking skills. Step-by-step lab instructions highlight the scientific method and use mostly common household items. Built-in research activities do require outside books, science encyclopedias, and/or supervised internet access, and suggestions are given for deeper exploration. Space for notes, sketches, drawings, or photographs is included, which creates a keepsake of what’s been learned and accomplished throughout the year! 355 pgs. paperback.
