Category Description for Science Quick Starts
Success in the high school sciences often hinges on our children's understanding of basic concepts and vocabulary taught in prior years. While textbooks often repeat this information ad nauseum, many kids glaze over when presented with the repetition. Not so with this great refresher series! Providing quick review through short answer activities, fill in the blank, diagrams, matching and more, children will be able to show what they know! Most activities will take less than 10 minutes to complete and presume prior instruction. A great little series (books measure 7x9") to provide a quick review to keep content fresh in the student's memory. Each page includes 2-4 review activities, with the exception of diagramming pages. Answers included. Reproducible for home/classroom use. Secular publisher. 62 pgs, sc. ~ Deanne
