Excellent classroom resource

This is a great book to accompany a physical science class, especially if the class includes students with academic challenges. Basic concepts that are graphically presented.

Missing

Just pulled this out to check it out so we can start this book after spring break with my homeschooling girls and realized the 1st 2 pages are gone, they've been ripped out. 😞 And of course, the return window closed 5 to days ago. Bummer. Hope there's not any other pages missing.

Excellent for High School

Excellent for High School. A good teacher friendly resource. There is a wide range of ability levels but enough for each level to make it very useful.
