Help-science curriculum for co-op for gr. 1-3

[momtoboyz]

I'm looking for a book or a curriculum for a co-op class, possibly kind-1st grade or 1st-3rd grade. Does anyone have any suggestions? It'd be a
12 week class and I'm looking for lots of hands on learning, things that wouldn't necessarily get done at home, if you know what I mean. :tongue_smilie:

Thanks.

How about The Backyard Scientist? Does anyone have any experience with that?

You could look over this: http://www.eequalsmcq.com/classicsciinfo.htm

If you are only teaching for a short time you could focus on a section of this. I find that it suites a range of kids and has at least 2 hands on activities per chapter.

Maybe a Janice VanCleave book or two?
