Projects include building an electric racer, a circuit, a motor, a balance scale, a rocket, an uno-guitar, and a solar fan. The Standard Kit includes all needed materials, allows students to work independently, provides the thoroughness of a text, and utilizes a hands-on approach.
Furthermore, the standard version presents lessons in a straight forward, easily understood, and hands-on manner. Real life projects built by the student make scientific principles tangible and concrete. Not only do the students learn and retain the information, but they also find themselves enjoying and succeeding in science.
A Closer Look at What Each Lesson Includes
Each lesson begins with a chapter online covering the scientific principle the student will be learning. Comprehension questions follow each lesson. Next, students apply each scientific principle in an experiment or activity, typically using the student built project.
The step-by-step pictorial instructions online ensure success. Each section (8 total) is followed up by a review that assesses the student’s understanding of the major topics covered. Additionally after each review the student can do a fun “Captain Code” activity.
The student logbook is used to record answers and scientific data using the scientific method. It also includes an index/glossary. Subsequently, the teacher’s manual has the answer key with sample hypothesis and theories, and assessment pages.

One Standard Logbook is included with the kit. If you have a second student, you can purchase an additional logbook here.
