Let's Try It Out in the Air has some really fun science activities that children can do to make observations around their homes and at school. It has bright vivid pictures that shows what children can do when doing the scientific activities. It also gives great explanations of how to do the

I think that this book would be great with explaining what students can do to experiment around and to do it safely. My students would have a blast with the activities that the book explains how to do.

we feel the wind? What makes a balloon float and drop to the ground? This is a great book for children to use familiar and safe objects sound in their homes or classrooms to make observations about the world around them!

Definitely better than a regular old activity book. This is a story that I can use within a classroom setting, read and have activities that are both easy and fun completed right along with the reading. It would be best for younger grades but is filled with wonderful illustrations and easy to

Let's try it out in the air, that's exactly what we do in this book. The author gives a couple of activities to try out to learn about air. It also explains that smells travel through the air. Great book to use for a science lesson.

This is a fun book full of simple ways for children to explore and experiment with something they can't see - air! These experiments would be good for young kids to explore with parents, teachers, or peers. The activities can easily be done in a single classroom session or broken up over several

This book allows students to become scientists on their own. The book guides them through their own experiments that they can do at home or at school. Sending this book home with students for homework would be a fun way to bring science home and then have a class discussion the next day. Great book
