SoCal_Bear Posted July 30, 2017 Share Posted July 30, 2017 If you can find the DVD series based on those books, they are fantastic. My library has a set in circulation. https://www.libraryvideocompany.com/The-Way-Things-Work-Series-CE2188-p/ce2188.htm I can't remember if you use any Christian materials, but I am really liking Apologia's Exploring Chemistry and Physics book. About 2/3 of it is physics focused. Even though I have used the rest the series - astronomy, botany, zoology and haven't loved them (my son likes them), this one I liked much better. I have the human anatomy one and haven't used it yet. This youtube channel is great as well: https://www.youtube.com/user/physicswoman 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoCal_Bear Posted July 30, 2017 Share Posted July 30, 2017 Oh yes, I almost forgot...the Disney Imagineering DVDs are great. I have access to this at the library as well. https://www.dep-store.com/Science-of-Disney-Imagineering-Bundle-p/77e44vl00.htm 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
