Experiments with a Flashlight

This low-level title introduces young students to the physical properties of light through an interactive approach. The science of light is explained to the reader through a series of photo-illustrated, step-by-step experiments, shown as being performed by their elementary-aged peers. The accessible text and experiments combine to teach important scientific concepts as well as promote critical thinking in young students. The (fun!) experiments strongly support STEM and CCSS programs, while also sparking ideas for science fair and maker spaces projects.
