"I have been home schooling my son for four years and science was not the easiest subject to teach. The Teaching Tank and book have been a tremendous help. The lessons are concise and easy to follow. Its list of supplies needed for each experiment, simple to follow steps, and expected results have allowed us to get excited about science. Other programs we have tried left me racing around trying to assemble items needed but, with the complete list of supplies in the back of the book I was able to plan ahead and have everything on hand that was necessary before we started. The lessons are designed to keep the child's / student's interest and also opened ended to keep them thinking. We have had such fun and can't wait for Book II. Thank you so much." - Charissa Hammond, Oakdale, Connecticut "I had the opportunity to meet many of you homeschloolers at the Boxborough conference in Boxborough, Massachussetts. I had a most enjoyable time presenting workshops and working at my booth. After having done many workshops throughout the northeast region for classroom teachers I was pleased to show the many parents at the conference how to make science come alive with little or no money. In fact one of my teacher workshops is called 'Teaching Science With Junk' and it has been very popular. Therefore, I was very excited when I discovered The Teaching Tank this past August while working on a science project in New Hampshire. This was not junk and I knew that I had to have one. I have been using it now for several months in my visits to schools, teacher workshops and with my Royal Academy homeschool children. It is an outstanding invention and one that can be used over and over again to teach many lessons that touch upon all areas of the science curriculum. The Teaching Tank reaches across all grade levels. Parents would find it both a valuable and fun teaching tool." - Gordon Corbett, Educational Consultant. "I used The Teaching Tank for my seventh grade Science Fair Project. The Tank allowed first hand observation of my experiment with plant root growth. It made the project fun and exciting and a real learning expereince for me and other students in the school." - Hilary Jordan, Woodbury School "As the Science Curriculum Facilitator in our school, I have ordered the Teaching Tank for use in grades Readiness through 5. It is rewarding to watch students of all ages and abilities become mesmerized as they observe science up close through the transparent tanks." - Marie Ross, Gr 5 Teacher, 1995 NH Elementary Science Teacher of the Year. "The Teaching Tank has allowed me to integrate various science concepts into my thematic units, as well as extend activities from existing curriculums. If you are looking for an easy way to spark interest, create dialogue, and enrich comprehension, the Teaching Tank is for you!" - Maria G. Clark, First Grade Teacher, Londonderry, NH.
