Reviews
My children and I love everything about this science curriculum!! We love doing an experiment every week, love that it doesn't dumb down concepts yet the explanations are clear, ... love that it encourages discussion... has the students involved in the scientific method, and keeps them engaged, learning and doing real science... - Verified Purchase Review ... I was immediately impressed with the concepts they are introducing for this age group. The book covers... Chemistry, Biology, Physics, Geology and Astronomy! All in an age appropriate but not watered down way. - Raising da Vinci - Grade 1 Science I was drawn to Real Science-4-Kids because they teach difficult subjects at an early age. I love that! This curriculum allows our kids to be exposed to chemistry, biology, and physics and develop a love for science. - Faith Filled Parenting
Author Information
"Dr. Keller received her PhD in biophysical chemistry from the University of New Mexico in 1992. She was then awarded an NSF postdoctoral fellowship in the Department of Molecular Biology at the University of New Mexico, followed by a Burroughs Wellcome Fund Postdoctoral Fellowship in the Department of Molecular Biology at the University of California, Berkeley. As Dr. Keller home schooled her three children, her scientific background coupled with her love of learning, brought her to a decisive point in her career. Taking the plunge, she decided to leave academia and develop a series of science books for kids. Real Science-4-Kids is written as a ""worldview-neutral"" curriculum that will not only provide students with a solid foundation for science, but also give them the tools to evaluate scientific data on their own. ""We should not rely on the 'experts' but instead learn how to critically evaluate every scientific claim,"" states Dr. Keller. ""In these uncertain times with so many social, scientific, and economic problems, it is not enough to teach our kids what to learn. We must also teach them how to learn, and we must encourage our kids to learn from others. Part of learning from others is to know how to engage in productive debate."" Real Science-4-Kids, with its easy to use teacher-friendly manuals and engaging, kid-friendly text, is used in all 50 states in the US and in many other countries. Dr. Keller's publishing team continues to develop and test products at her Albuquerque headquarters."
