These new enhancements strengthen our enlightened approach to literacy by allowing kids to think and act like scientists in a whole new way."

As they were previously, Science A-Z resources are also available in printable and projectable formats. The product also includes an array of hands-on experiments and activities that require only common household items to put science into practice.
