Conceptual Physical Science Explorations Practice Book?

[Amy in TX]

Dd13 is using Conceptual Physical Science Explorations. I would like more practice problems. Would they be in the Practice Book? I can't get a clear idea of what's in this book from the description on Amazon, and there isn't a Look Inside feature for this book.

 

If not, any other suggestions for where to find additional practice problems that would work with this book?

 

TIA,

I have this book but haven't used it yet. Flipping through it quickly, it seems that the beginning, maybe 15 chaps, has more math practice problems. Then there are more math practice problems spread throughout the next 25 chaps, but not very many. These 25 chaps seem to be more of a review worksheet to emphasize the important info form the book that they should learn. There is an answer guide in the back.

The practice book has guided discovery problems. It's usually pretty good, though occasionally the problems seem to assume more knowledge than the Explorations book has provided (I think they were taken directly from the regular Conceptual Physical Science practice book with little or no modification, but they may have changed this since we used it). I recommend getting it, but not necessarily for extra problems, if that makes any sense.

Thanks, that is helpful. I think I will order the book.
