Gravitas Publications Created for Home School Science Needs
What if your children could learn science subjects from an early age so they would have much better science comprehension in high school and college? What if they learned basic scientific facts and the scientific method of inquiry along with how science is a part of their everyday lives? What if science easily made sense to kids of every age and was easy for you to teach?
Gravitas Publications, Inc. was founded on exactly these principles. It is a small, independent publishing company specializing in quality educational materials for children and adults.
Dr. Rebecca W. Keller was working as research assistant professor after receiving her Ph.D. in biophysical chemistry from the University of New Mexico. For years, she worked in the areas of biophysics, molecular biology and neuroscience. She also home schooled for her three children for 14 years in her Albuquerque, New Mexico, home. When she could not find textbooks that excited her kids about science, she began to create her own. Eventually she founded Gravitas and wrote the hugely popular Real Science-4-Kids science books and the Kogs-4-Kids workbook series. Gravitas believes in teaching for understanding – and for fun!
