Melting, Freezing, and Boiling Science Projects with Matter
Robert Gardner · 2006
68/100
👎 Skip It
Robert Gardner delivers reliable, classroom-ready science content here — nine solid experiments, clear instructions, and extension ideas that encourage genuine inquiry. It is purely functional educational nonfiction with no leisure-reading appeal, but as a library or classroom resource for upper-elementary physical science it does its job well. Science-curious kids and home-school families will get real use from it.
