Let's Investigate Light


Book Description

With an emphasis on how important light is to our planet, this beautifully-illustrated book explains how light affects photosynthesis, how light travels, and light's different properties. Whether it's ultraviolet light that helps bees pollinate flowers or solar panels that use sunlight to heat our homes, students learn about the various ways that both animals and people depend on light.




Light


Book Description

From switching on a lamp to seeing the sun rise in the morning, we experience light every day, but what exactly is light? In this title, students will have the opportunity to conduct experiments to help them understand what light is, how it travels, and how we see it. Kids will also investigate concepts such as what causes shadows to form, and how white light is made up of a mixture of different colors. Using everyday items that kids can easily find around the house, students will transform into scientists as they carry out step-by-step experiments to answer interesting questions. Along the way, children will pick up important scientific skills as they investigate light, record their observations, and draw conclusions. Light includes seven experiments with detailed, age-appropriate instructions, surprising facts and background information, a “Conclusions” section to pull all the concepts in the book together, and a glossary of science words. Colorful, dynamic designs and images truly put the FUN into FUN-damental Experiments.

Let's Examine


Book Description

The conclusion to the whole matter, "And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose" (Romans 8:28). God's love is everlasting, and his wisdom is infinite. It doesn't matter who or what attempts to circumvent God's plan. Nothing in heaven, earth, or under the earth can deviate God's plan. Our decision to align our will with God's and to always trust him will be rewarded.

Investigating Light and Shadow with Young Children (Ages 3-8)


Book Description

Children are intrigued by switches that power a light source and by items that reflect light and sparkle, and they take notice of personal shadows cast on the playground. An understanding of light and shadow is crucial to many STEM fields, including astronomy, biology, engineering, architecture, and more. This book shows teachers how to engage children (ages 3-8 ) with light and shadow in a playful way, building an early foundation for the later, more complex study of this phenomena and, ultimately, for children's interest in professions within the STEM fields. The text offers guidance for arranging the physical environment of classrooms, integrating literacy learning and investigations, and building partnerships with administrators. Each volume in the STEM for Our Youngest Learners Series includes examples of educators and children engaging in inquiry learning, guidance for selecting materials and arranging the learning environment, modifications and accommodations for diverse learners, support for establishing adult learning communities, and more.
