Summary Note "How can a long metal needle pass through a balloon without popping it? How can water flow at very different rates through two identical funnels? How can a stick, placed on a table under several sheets of newspaper and extended over the edge of a table, snap when quickly struck - without lifting or tearing the paper? Author Thomas O'Brien takes these and 30 more science inquiry activities to a higher level in this book for educators who love to surprise and challenge their students with unanticipated results ... O'Brien shows how learners can be motivated to reconsider their preconceived notions and think more closely about what has actually occurred and the underlying scientific explanations." - Back cover.
