force and energy

"When aspiring young scientists heat up one of their favorite meals or warm themselves by a campfire, they may wonder what invisible forces are at work. This . . . title will not only explain these forces but will also allow students to experience them! First . . . it explains key ideas of heat and energy, such as the three main ways heat travels. Then students are challenged to think like a scientist as they learn about the scientific method. Through this viewpoint, readers are then guided through 11 . . . experiments that range from a conductor contest to making ice cream in a bag at room temperature! Each activity features . . . illustrations, step-by-step instructions, and an explanation of important STEM concepts"--Provided by publisher.

"A future engineer may gaze up at an airplane soaring high above and wonder about the forces that keep it in flight. This . . . title will not only help young readers understand these forces, but also experience them firsthand in a safe setting! It begins by breaking down Newton's laws of motion. Then students learn to take on the mindset of a scientist for their experiments with an explanation of the scientific method. Illustrations and . . . step-by-step instructions then guide students through 11 experiments. These include creating a balloon-powered jet boat and a human gyroscope! Each experiment also features a description of the science that makes it possible"--Provided by publisher.

"A renowned health authority reveals how we can protect ourselves against the harmful effects of electromagnetic fields"--Amazon.

"Sports and other kinds of fun movement make us feel good and energized, and are great to do with friends and family. But they also have a lot of science involved if you look closely! In this title, readers explore what bouncing a ball, jumping rope, hula hoops, and throwing a baseball have to do with science. Each experiment or activity includes an explanation of the scientific concept to be tested, a list of materials, set up information, and a step-by-step guide to performing the experiment. 'Extras' and science fair project ideas conclude most experiments and give students ideas for expanding each project"--Provided by publisher.

"From pushing a friend on a swing to pulling a wagon, push and pull is a part of daily life. Readers learn these introductory science concepts and more alongside their pals from Sesame Street!"--Provided by publisher.
