5-0 out of 5 stars Wonderful book
I stumbled on this in local library.Went straight home and ordered one while I used the library copy for a month.I am a tertiary educated scientist but this really spelt out how to approach science for young children.If you have ever told your enquiring child that "thats just the way it is" orput it down to a divine inspiration - then this is for you.There is no surer way of ruining your child's future enquiring scientific mind than these sorts of pseudo explanations for things that you are uneducated about!And there is plenty that I feel uneducated about despite having the most expensive and classical education that the UK could offer!

So many great moments.One is the author's memory of his father reading to him about dinosaurs and stopping to draw a picture in his mind of how big the stats really are (imagine his head coming into the top floor window of the house except his head is too big to get into the window).Another is that a vast no. of Harvard grads have wrong concept of seasonal climate cause.Fantastic 3D demos of earth/moon/sun experiments.My 4 year old was very taken with Gallileo which I would never have thought of discussing with her until I read this book.

This book single handedly changed the way I deal with questions from young children.

5-0 out of 5 stars Interesting and useful
"Teach Your Child Science" is a useful and well written book.

Children are naturally curious about the world. With this book, you will help your child discover and understand aspects of astronomy, biology, chemistry, earth science, physics, and phychology.

And there is much more here than many good, simple experiments. Science is more than an area of interest; a basic understanding of science and the scientific method helps us in all sorts of ways. Shermer helps you get your child on the path to rational thinking.

Shermer, like James Randi and Carl Sagan, is a strong voice against pseudoscience and the occult. He has written a book that is a building block to make your child a clear-thinking adult. ... Read more

4-0 out of 5 stars Expanding the mind
I recommend this 153-page entertaining book to all aspiring superstars who want to elevate their thinking and consequently elevate their performance.


My favorite chapters were 4 (A mind is a terrible thing to waste) and 5 (Mental Secrets of Superstar Athletes), summarized below:

1) Changevocabulary to eliminate exaggeration, overgeneralization, and despair
2) Demonstrate strong personal presence
3) Choose to associate with people who make you want to evolve into a better person and avoid negative people and the gossip that they promote
4) Use music to stimulate positive mental outlook, ranging from Mozart, Vivaldi, Beethoven, and Bach, to the theme song from Rocky
5) Develop positive routines that make you feel safe, secure, and in the moment
6) Visualize every step of success
7) Choose role models with unshakeable faith, such as Rev. Martin Luther King Jr., Mahatma Gandhi, and John F. Kennedy, to overcome obstacles
8) Bring onto your team coaches or mentors who help you see beyond your blind spots

He concludes by encouraging us:
Maybe you should be the superstar of your life.Take an inventory of your victories, especially those where you have succeeded against all odds.If you can't find them, ask your friends, significant others, and mentors.If you were watching you, what would excite you?After all, if you are not your own biggest champion, why would you expect anyone else to be?

An enjoyable read.

2-0 out of 5 stars An important topic for the serious TCM student...but...
I have been looking for a good review of Chinese Medical terminology to aid in my writing and translation/teaching. I am fluent in Chinese but really love to get language books for reading to see how the ideas are taught and also to practice my skills.This book I felt would be very interesting.

Indeed, I will admit it is not easy to take on the project of writing such a book.Especially when one tries to take a non-speaker of Chinese to reading advanced professional literature in one volume.

I would like to say though, I found the book not that helpful in two ways.1) The terminology although has pinyin romanization, it lacks the intonation marks.While this book is for reading, tones added will make the book able to help those wanting to learn to speak or listen to Chinese. 2) The book is full or errors.The wrong characters are written and often the meaning is either too simple or in error...so many errors!

I hope that in future editions some of the errors can be corrected-then it would be more helpful. ... Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars Excellent content for elementary level science teaching
This book has been around quite a few years, but the authors have updated each edition for new trends, especially in space exploration, technology, and the constructivist orientation to science teaching. I am using it foran Integrated Physical and Biological science content class for elementaryteachers. I can supplement with web searches for jazzy pictures, or lowinformation density lessons, but for a good all round knowledge reference,with the extra of alternating chapters to emphasize methods of teachingelementary science, I haven't found a better physical/biological sciencetext.

2-0 out of 5 stars Good text; horrible illustrations
This manual was disappointing.

The text is detailed and thorough, and provides quite a few techniques.Judged by the writing alone, it's a good book.Unfortunately, the excellent writing is completely overshadowed by the wretched illustrations.

The book is devoid of photographs, and features only crude line drawings that are sometimes confusing, and sometimes completely undecipherable."Honey, what is that supposed to be, a knee?""No, I think it's an elbow.""Ohh!It's a chin!"

It's a shame that the poor presentation drags this book down into the two-star region.Let's hope they jazz it up a bit for the next edition -- if there is a next edition.

5-0 out of 5 stars An excellent tool for learning how to massage.
I've always wanted to learn how to massage and this book is a great tool for learning some techniques. It walks you through a massage session and it shows you the dos and don'ts of the movements. It also teaches what kindsof oils are necessary and their properties. So if you're interested on thebasics this is the book for you. ... Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars Every homeschooler needs this book!
I have been homeschooling now for about four years.My eldest child is in 4th grade, and after having struggled through math textbooks and grammar textbooks, I finally have answers as to why my child was not liking school!Ruth Beechick teaches moms how to teach!I have much greater confidence and understanding in all subject areas, but particularly math and grammar,now, after reading her books - not only this one, but also the 3 R's.I have had the 3 R's all along, but didn't fully believe that it could be so simple.I wish now that I would have listened to other homeschool moms that told me "Ruth Beechick's books are all you need."I HIGHLY recommend this book for grades 4-8 and the 3 R's for the younger grades.

5-0 out of 5 stars One of the best
I have had this book for several years and have read it more then once. Perhaps I am a bit dense but I am finally understanding the genius behind what is put forth in this book. It seems so simple and straight forward and it is. It has helped me no longer be a slave to curriculum and to use the books we have without constantly looking for more or better or homeschool curriculum utopia.

The section on reading goes through different types of reading, such and for information and for pleasure. She shares how to utilize those.

My favorite part though is on writing. It has also given me the most struggle and the most freedom. She shows you how to take books your children are reading and use parts of them for teaching all sorts of differents language arts, like grammar, mechanics, usage, and composition. There are several examples to get you started. There is even a way to help you determine where your children are in terms of writing ability.

Overall a very helpful and practical book with a common sense approach.

5-0 out of 5 stars Very Useful Resource
I am amazed at how much helpful information was put into this book. I have already implemented some of the suggestions in several of the subjects, and have been pleased with the results. My kids are responding very well to my new teaching style, and are showing interest in subjects that bored or frustrated them before, including literature, math, and study of artists. I highly recommend this book, not only to other home schooling parents, but to all parents wanting to help with their childrens' learning.

5-0 out of 5 stars The title describes this book perfectly
This is an amazing book in a very understated cover. It is the BEST book on educating your children at home that I have read, and I have read many books on the subject that I learned much from. This one is distilled down to the real stuff of how we learn.I would recommend reading this first to any parent considering homeschooling or any parent, like myself, who had gotten lost in an endless textbook cycle. This was the pivotal book for me. I now teach my children completely from wonderful books that we love and know that we are getting the most from our school time. The author is really an expert in her field and seems to think no more of herself than her reader never talking down to him/her.

5-0 out of 5 stars How could this much information be squeezed into 388 pages?
I have been searching and searching to find just the right curriculum for my 3 girls, ages 3-9. I picked up this book and my problem about curriculum was solved! Ruth Beechick is sensible beyond measure by offering ways in which to homeschool in a very cost-effective way, while following Charlotte Mason's gentle methods of learning. I highly recommend this book to every homeschooling family who feels like they are a slave to their curriculum. ... Read more
