Combine Reading Practice with 4th Grade Science Experiments

Here are some highly recommended experiments that are simple and perfect for 4th grade.  If you want to test your child's reading ability, give him/her a copy of the science project directions and all the supplies he/she needs and just watch.  Don't help!  If your child can't figure out how to do the experiment or he/she gives up.  You know you need to work on some easy nonfiction reading strategies with your child.
