Download or read book EXPLORE ELECTRICITY written by Carmella Van Vleet and published by Nomad Press. This book was released on 2014-01-07 with total page 191 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Given the pace of how we harness and utilize electricity, as well as the importance of developing new sources of energy, electricity is a timely subject for kids to explore. In Explore Electricity! With 25 Great Projects, kids ages 6-9 will learn the basics of electricity: currents, circuits, power, magnetism and electromagnetism, motors and generators. They’ll become more attuned to how much they rely on electricity in their daily lives. They’ll also understand that while electricity is a wonderful resource, and one we’ve used to our advantage ever since it was discovered, the future of how we make and use electricity is still changing and there are things they can do today to impact these changes. This title invites kids to experiment on their own with 25 simple projects that will “spark” their learning and enthusiasm, including making their own clothespin switch, lemon battery, compass, electromagnet, and flashlight, as well as generating their own “lightning.” These hands-on activities combined with informational text will excite kids about STEM? the interrelated fields of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics.

Download or read book Matter written by Andi Diehn and published by Nomad Press. This book was released on 2018-03-01 with total page 35 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Matter: Physical Science for Kids from the Picture Book Science series gets kids excited about science! What’s the matter? Everything is matter! Everything you can touch and hold is made up of matter—including you, your dog, and this book! Matter is stuff that you can weigh and that takes up space, which means pretty much everything in the world is made of matter. In Matter: Physical Science for Kids, kids ages 5 to 8 explore the definition of matter and the different states of matter, plus the stuff in our world that isn’t matter, such as sound and light! In this nonfiction picture book, children are introduced to physical science through detailed illustrations paired with a compelling narrative that uses fun language to convey familiar examples of real-world science connections. By recognizing the basic physics concept of matter and identifying the different ways matter appears in real life, kids develop a fundamental understanding of physical science and are impressed with the idea that science is a constant part of our lives and not limited to classrooms and laboratories. Simple vocabulary, detailed illustrations, easy science experiments, and a glossary all support exciting learning for kids ages 5 to 8. Perfect for beginner readers or as a read aloud nonfiction picture book! Part of a set of four books in a series called Picture Book Science that tackles different kinds of physical science (waves, forces, energy, and matter), Matter offers beautiful pictures and simple observations and explanations. Quick STEM activities such as weighing two balloons to test if air is matter help readers cross the bridge from conceptual to experiential learning and provide a foundation of knowledge that will prove invaluable as kids progress in their science education. Perfect for children who love to ask, “Why?” about the world around them, Matter satisfies curiosity while encouraging continual student-led learning.
Download or read book Explaining Electricity written by Jim (James William) Ross and published by Wellington, Ont. : Ross Lattner Educational Consultants. This book was released on 2004 with total page 83 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Electricity can be easy to understand! A fruitful model of simple electric circuits is developed and applied in these pages. The approach is highly pictorial: electric potential (Volts) and electric current (Amps) are represented by simple diagrams. The student is expected to use these diagrams as the principal mode of analyzing circuits. When algebra and equations are introduced, the student already has an understanding of V, I, R and P from the diagrams. As in all of the Ross Lattner IntuitivScience series, diagrams are an important mode of expression. Parents and teachers, you get one half of the book! We provide solid pedagogical supports, recipes, and methods of presentation. The unit itself is further subdivided into four sections, approximating four weeks of 70-minute classes. 1. Static electricity and the electrical structure of matter 2. Characteristics of electric current, and development of a model of current, potential, resistance and power 3. Mathematical treatment of series and parallel circuits 4. Projects that are either an application of the model or an extensions of the model. At the end of sections 1 - 3 is a thorough quiz, in the same pictorial style. Because this unit involves fundamental forces and concepts, we recommend that it be placed first in the series of the four Ross Lattner Grade Nine Academic IntuitivScience books. In particular, this book should be placed before chemistry.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Have you ever wondered how electricity powers your home or school? What about how that electricity travels? In any device that uses electricity, inside is a small path called a circuit through which electricity travels. Whether we see them in these devices or not, circuits are constantly at work. But how do circuits work? How were they invented? Explore the key concepts that make up a circuit, including the power source, conducting path, and load. Learn how circuits power devices of all sizes, from computers to the lights in your home to satellites in outer space!

Book excerpt: Now a Netflix film starring and directed by Chiwetel Ejiofor, this is a gripping memoir of survival and perseverance about the heroic young inventor who brought electricity to his Malawian village. When a terrible drought struck William Kamkwamba's tiny village in Malawi, his family lost all of the season's crops, leaving them with nothing to eat and nothing to sell. William began to explore science books in his village library, looking for a solution. There, he came up with the idea that would change his family's life forever: he could build a windmill. Made out of scrap metal and old bicycle parts, William's windmill brought electricity to his home and helped his family pump the water they needed to farm the land. Retold for a younger audience, this exciting memoir shows how, even in a desperate situation, one boy's brilliant idea can light up the world. Complete with photographs, illustrations, and an epilogue that will bring readers up to date on William's story, this is the perfect edition to read and share with the whole family.
