Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)Kudos to author Carmella Van Vleet and her publisher Nomad Press for their dedication to publications about the environment aimed at being informative, educational and fun for middle grade and young adult readers. Amazing Arctic & Antarctic Projects You Can Build Yourself encourages independent reading and exploration. The book is full of interactive activities and fascinating factual tidbits. Words to Know, Did You Know and Fun Things to Try are featured on every page so that the reader never faces boring blocks of tiresome text. More detailed projects are contained on Make Your Own pages. These include several projects that with a little creativity could serve as the basis of a prize winning science fair or social studies fair project. For example, the Make Your Own Toboggan with Wheels could be combined with using different mixes of ice for an experiment on how pollutants affect vehicle movement. Similar additions could be made to Make Your Own Neutrally Buoyant Cup. I bought this book for my 6th and seventh graders but it is an important source of information for students, parents and teachers.
