(4) 4-6 Real Scientist Investigates series. Each volume's double-page spreads cover facts about the physical sciences or astronomy. Step-by-step instructions for activities (most using everyday household materials) and photographs of children engaged in science projects support the main texts. Although many of the experiments are accompanied by good guiding questions, it's not always clear what concept is the project's focus. Websites. Glos., ind. Review covers these Real Scientist Investigates titles: Electricity, Forces, Light, Materials, Sound, and Space.
