No energy to spare? This book is here to help. Readers will discover how cool temperatures help to keep a taiga wet, and the relationship between a taiga animal's wide feet and pressure. Each experiment follows the scientific method, and can be completed in an hour or less. Many experiments also include ideas for more detailed science fair projects.

This series includes a plethora of science projects and experiments that children can complete in one hour or less. The books are organized by topic, making it easy for students to locate an experiment to match their needs. Each book begins with a section that reviews the scientific method and science lab safety. Supplies are generally accessible, and clearly identified step-by-step instructions, color illustrations, and diagrams guide students. Teachers will also find the ideas and experiments helpful, especially when designing independent student centers. These projects are not revolutionary, but Robert Gardner's clear instructions and appealing layouts provide a concise reference for students seeking science fair ideas. Bibliography. Glossary.
