Reproducible, hands-on physical science activities designed for the ""non-science"" teacher who teaches science. They offer many important features: no science background required, no expensive lab equipment is needed (all materials are zero or low budget), easy to find materials, minimal preparation time, step by step procedures, critical thinking questioning strategies along with suggested answers, and non graded format. Students become observers and learn to state observations in scientific terms using a hands-on interactive format. Science "story building" comes from students' previous knowledge, direct observations, discovery of concept, evaluation processes, and practical applications. Book Two Contains: Process Skills; Force, Movement, Work, Systems, and Weight; States of Matter; Mass, Volume, Density; Air Pressure - the pressure of the atmosphere; Heat, Expansion, and the Movement of Molecules; The Transfer of Heat; Flight and Aerodynamics; The Speed of Falling Bodies; Graphing, the Flight of Helicopters, and Controlling Variables; Inertia and the Flight of Satellites; Surface Tension; Bubbles; Sound; Light - reflection and refraction; Magnetism and Electricity.
