Welcome to our Homeschool Resources: Science. Check out these websites Fascinating Education, Science Frontiers and 4-H Virtual Farm: Virtual Hatch Project! If you’ve used them leave me a comment and let me know what you thought of them and why.
Dr. Margulies flips the teaching process in Fascinating Education courses by approaching Science through the “right hemisphere” of the brain. He uses simple, colorful illustrations, supplemented with attached audio files to explain what your child is seeing. The result is an easy way to learn science.
All grades, with parental supervision
The Science Frontiers website explains how to make hard-boiled eggs act like water sprinklers – has something to do with gravity and centrifugal force.
And here are more sites that offer lots of interesting Science resources related to eggs:
Make Soft-Shelled Eggs
This eggs-citing experiment uses a little vinegar and a hard-boiled egg to get some amazing results!
4-H Virtual Farm: Virtual Hatch Project!
4-H offers the opportunity to learn about embryology by reading about virtual embryonic development and incubation of a chicken egg.
When you are through learning all about the embryology of chicken eggs – you can see a virtual chicken egg hatch by going here. Very eggs-citing!
