What People Are Saying!

“I just received the box with the Particular Concepts books and the notes on the sand-cup race. This is ... very ...helpful. The books are ...well organized with ...demanding lectures for ...higher levels. I also like the race a lot... I'll try to work some of this into my classes.”

"I think they are fabulous! In fact, I am going to start from the beginning with my niece, and I think my husband and I are going to play with the high school-to college experiments. I love the emphasis on observation, hands-on/visual exploration, and simplicity! ... I'm going to include the books as strategies for the learning plans I create."

"It was interesting to observe how easily the students moved the marble in the cup into the 'hole-in-one' with just rice. There was almost no room for error. Students would say, 'Well, that hole was easy!' If they only knew that the 'easy' technology could have once been the basis for transporting megaliths across scores of miles of desert....!

"I loved the "YouTube" videos! My favorite was the retaining wall. An experiment like this would absolutely mystify the students and serve as an excellent inquiry-based lesson for force/physics! I'm going to have to buy some of those big Lego™s!"

[If] a science class can fit even one of these experiments in each year, it would be worth while... Awesome science, age appropriate, and will inspire what is best in science: inquiry.... "

If you would like to have a book of ...hands on physics experiments that are a bit different, this is a FUN book to consider!"

"Considering the general state of science education in the US these days, I applaud the way this author engages the youngest and eagerest minds with scientific reasoning appropriate to their level... A delightful addition to any school's or home schooler's science program."

This is a good thing!"
