This collection of materials combines science equipment with hands-on activities designed to develop scientific thinking and encourage curiosity in students. Your budding scientist will explore the scientific method, learn to form a hypothesis, conduct an experiment, monitor the variables, and record and interpret data.

The activities in this course are divided into four general areas of study: earth science, physical science, chemistry, and life science. Some activities span several of these topics. There are activities suitable for a basic level of knowledge, as well as for a more advanced student.

The kit includes a Lesson Manual with activities, goggles, hand lens, spring scale, graduated cylinder, funnel, dropper, magnets, two thermometers (F/C), modeling clay, rock and mineral kit, streak plate, and a colorful, laminated storage box.
