Safe and economical, experiments are led by Stanley the Scientist as he takes student's through the LIFEPAC experiments and science projects from beginning to end. Concepts covered in this Alpha Omega curriculum DVD resource include magnetism, static electricity, and chemical and physical changes. LIFEPAC Science is a comprehensive, homeschool curriculum intended for the study of the physical universe that God created. This homeschool program targets observation skills by delivering assignments and experiments through the structured and organized framework of the LIFEPAC curriculum. LIFEPAC Science addresses Life Science, Earth and Space Sciences, and the Nature of Science. Throughout each grade level, experiments and demonstrations are included to help student's visualize abstract concepts. The experiments become more complex as student's progress grade levels. This educational science DVD is an ideal, non-messy way to teaching your 8th grader about scientific experiments. They will be delighted by the things they see, and this DVD is a wonderful complement to LIFEPAC 8th Grade Science.
A helpful addition to the excellent material covered in the LIFEPAC series are the Science Experiment DVDs. Your student can view some of the more involved experiments without safety concerns, and you can avoid the expense of special equipment and chemicals. Plus, the experiments always work! The DVDs feature the content of the Switched-on-Schoolhouse version of the science curriculum, so if you have the SOS version of any of the Science programs, you do not need to purchase an additional DVD.
