"The science resource section at the back of the book offers fabulous ideas and resources for budding scientists, and the index is very helpful. The resource could be used for a review after a unit of study, to supplement a unit of study, or to extend a unit of study. It would be a fantastic book for quizzing students during the last 10 minutes of class or as a transition activity. This resource is economically friendly to teachers and has multiple purposes. Overall, it would be a great addition to any classroom library."
