## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good experiments and explanations
*by P***3 on October 21, 2011*

The book has very good ideas for experiments and good background information for teachers. I did not received a CD-ROM with my order. I was able to download the student pages from the terrific science website but I cannot find the K'NEX Parts Inventory or assembly info which is a real drawback. Be sure to try the experiments yourself before you do them with the class... not all of them have worked very well.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Resource:  Attention Homeschool Co-ops!  Summer Camps etc!
*by M***L on March 13, 2013*

I have been enjoying this book greatly and look forward to making sure it stays available to my homeschool group. I think it could easily be used at home by parents who want to increase their knowledge right along side their children. If you're at a loss on how to keep your kids busy during the summer, this is a great way to spend quality time with the family maybe include the neighborhood kids, without spending big bucks. There are also resources on line to help. I love that it gives the expected time and because of past experience doing these kinds of things it seems pretty close. The only thing that might influence the time might be the ability and needs of the students which is always a factor in any class. I am looking forward to checking out the other series in this collection of science fun!

### ⭐⭐ Frustrating
*by L***K on November 7, 2013*

I want to love this book. I bought it to enrich an 8th grade physical science class. I thought it would be so much easier to use toys, especially K'nex, instead of pricy materials from a science education company. A kit to demonstrate the effects of friction on an incline plane is much more expensive than making something out of K'nex etc. Like a lot of parents, I am up to my neck in K'nex and this seemed like a great way to use them now that my kids are older.Well, as of the day of this review, the company that prints this book, Terrific Science Press, has no current web presence. That is a problem because all of the instructions for the specific K'nex projects were online. I didn't realize this when I bought the book. There are some small pictures as part of, say, the demonstration on gears that look fantastic, but I have no idea what specific K'nex I need to gather to make the project. The unit on levers instructs me to make a see-saw and a wheelbarrow from K'nex. It tells me the assembly diagram are on the website. Well, there is no website any more. Same with the unit on pulleys. There are lots of suggestions of things I can make with toys, but the book tells me to go the website for the specific instructions. That makes a percentage of this book useless.I am going back to TOPS Science units.
