I would prefer to do at-home/kitchen chemistry for 7th & 8th grade, too. I suspect we'll have to piece it together from many different resources. <br /><br />Have you seen this website?<br />http://scifun.chem.wisc.edu/HomeExpts/HOMEEXPTS.HTML<br />There were quite a few which would fit with 7th grade.Laurinoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-287923374500556606.post-91575228079152366502010-04-26T21:43:44.514-04:002010-04-26T21:43:44.514-04:00I just checked my recent shipment from the Rudolf ...I just checked my recent shipment from the Rudolf Steiner Library in Ghent, and yes, it's among the books I received. I've looked through it, it is written quite clearly, but definitely written for a school lab. With chemistry I think it's very difficult to know what you can do safely (and cheaply) at home and what not! I don't want to invest in a chemistry kit right now. I want to wait for that one until high school. So I'm still thinking about what to do. I also got some old and new books on chemistry from our local library with some experiments you could do at home. Those don't tie in so well with the Waldorf school curriculum, though. They kind of jump around or stress the periodic table and formulas too much.Evahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16831448349166435125noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-287923374500556606.post-47004271973010885832010-04-26T20:15:17.263-04:002010-04-26T20:15:17.263-04:00Hi Eva - have you seen "The Wonders of Waldor...Hi Eva - have you seen "The Wonders of Waldorf Chemistry" for grades 7-9? I haven't used it yet, but it looked very promising:<br />http://www.steinerbooks.org/detail.html?id=9781888365160Lauri Bnoreply@blogger.com
