Book review: Bright Ideas: The Science of Light
With the increased emphasis on physical science in NGSS, elementary teachers are looking to expand their repertoire of experiments in this content area that are related to the standards and easy to implement. This book contains ten experiments using common subjects to which children can relate The author includes materials needed, ageappropriate, stepbystep directions, photographs, and a conclusion of how the experiment worked. This book could be included in classroom and school libraries for use with science fair projects.Ruth Ruud, NSTA
