From the Author
This book uses inventing as a process for learning science.
"Young Invents at Work" is two books in one. The first half details tested activities to get kids excited to learn science by tackling challenges as inventors do. The second half is a collection of original short stories about inventors. This approach was tested in inner city schools and turned kids onto learning.
Synopsis
Challenges kids to use problem solving and critical thinking to design, build, and test model structures, games, and vehicles.
