Linda (Australia) Posted February 4, 2010 Share Posted February 4, 2010 Do any of the John Hudson Tiner books - in the Exploring Series (Planet Earth, The World of Biology, The World of Physics, The World of Chemistry, etc.) include any experiments, or is is all reading and answering the questions? If is is all Science Theory, are there recommended supplementary books that people use to cover experiments / labs? Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atozmom Posted February 4, 2010 Share Posted February 4, 2010 We have 3 of the books - Exploring the World of Chemistry, Physics and Medicine. There are no experiments. Physics has a couple of "For Further Study" activities, but that is it. What ages will you be using these with? Janice Van Cleave has many experiment books that we can find readily at our library.

Linda (Australia) Posted February 4, 2010 Author Share Posted February 4, 2010 I'll be using these with my daughter, who is in grade 5/6. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jen+4dc Posted February 4, 2010 Share Posted February 4, 2010 We're currently using the chemistry one. It's all historical and has a Christian slant. Nothing too overbearing, IMHO, but a Christian slant nonetheless. If this makes a difference to you. There are no experiements listed, it's just glimpses at famous historical chemists and chemical discoveries. Hope that helps.:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Linda (Australia) Posted February 4, 2010 Author Share Posted February 4, 2010 Thanks, Jen - a Christian slant is good! I've heard so much about these books, I thought maybe someone out there has matched up the books with certain science experiments? Hopefully, someone has, or I may have to do it myself! ;-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
