Wonders of Chemistry & Physics
The 9-title Wonders of Chemistry and Physics series is just one of the subject areas in TMW Media Group's new Show Me Science DVD library. Covering everything from the definition of an atom to the science of light, these DVDs are designed to make teaching science easier. Each comes with its own teachers guide that suggests curriculum material, questions to ask students, and class projects that will help punctuate key lessons. Students can start to develop basic understandings of the fundamentals of science, then work their way up to more complex subjects. |

Chemistry Making Modern Miracles
Chemistry is the study of the world and its most basic components. All matter on Earth is made up of atoms, elements and molecules, and chemists study the structure of these atoms in order to make new and exciting technological advancements. Most of the comforts (and everyday necessities) we have today are the result of work done in chemistry labs.
