Light Saber Science: Mix the Primary colors of light. What ARE the primary colors of light? These "primary" colors ARE NOT the same as the primary colors for pigments and paint.And the way that light mixes or combines will likely SURPRISE you. When you mix red with green light, what will you get? Definitely NOT brown!

 Light Saber Science, may the “force” of knowledge be with you!

Penny Norman, Ph.D. earned a doctoral degree in Biophysics from U.C. Berkeley. She became involved with the development of primary grade science materials through volunteer work, which she began as her own children started school. During this process she became deeply concerned about the limited exposure of elementary age students to the physical sciences.
Her concern has translated into a 20 year effort to test and revamp science materials for the primary grades. Her work with children developed into a product line initially under the auspices of grants from the National Science Foundation and the Franklin Foundation. Her published titles reflect Dr. Norman's extensive testing and involvement with children and teachers and her love and commitment to both.
Ann Einstein, M.A.T. from George Washington University in Washington D.C., was a teacher in the Berkeley Unified School District. She has been involved with the education of children for most of her adult career as a director of early childhood education programs, as a teacher in gifted and talented programs and most recently as an elementary education teacher. She has been an editor of the ScienceWiz™ Books since 1994 when she edited the ElectroWiz™ Electricity book. Ann brings a clarity of mind and the capacity to see things through a child's eyes to the editing process.
To quote an Einstein of an earlier generation:
"We never cease to stand like curious children before the great Mystery into which we were born." - Albert Einstein
