The Flixies teach us one of their most important secrets: variety. And so we learn what the word biodiversity means, and why it is so important that we understand it. Facto learns that there is an exceptional number of different types of animals and plants on Earth, and that each one that is discovered must be named. Grandma Flox surprises the Flixies with a very special piece of embroidery… The Teacher’s Guide includes:
The Flixies talk about one of the most important natural resources, namely soil. They explain how important soils is to all plants, animals and humans, but they are also deeply concerned… Although the earth is large and covered in soil, there is only a very small fertile layer where plants can grow and provide food for all living things. Flex uses a berry to explain this issue. The Teacher’s Guide includes:
The earliest green plants lived in water. Since the conditions on land was very different from life in water, the earliest plants would have simply dried out and would have been unable to stay upright without support of water. Facto learns how plants developed to be able to live on land and which plants were the most successful in propagating on land… The Teacher’s Guide includes:
Kwax is in a discussion with Mannie Marsh Frog who is telling him about his ancestral history. He tells Kwax that the ancient amphibian ancestors were big and clumsy and really struggled to move about and live on land. An interesting point regarding amphibians is that they have not yet developed eggs with shells. They therefore return to water to lay their eggs. When the eggs hatch, little tadpoles pop out! The Teacher’s Guide includes:
The Earth is like a spaceship orbiting with other planets through space. The big difference between our planet earth and all the other planets, is that earth carries thousands of various forms of life. Flex explains to the Flixies how all the planets travel in their orbits around the sun and how the shapes of these orbits influence the seasons, allowing plants to grow and to rest. The Teacher’s Guide includes:
Facto is dreaming in a nice cosy hollow among the roots of on the Wonder Tree. He waits to learn from the Flixies about the last two groups that successfully managed to master life on land – birds and mammals… and he can’t believe what he hears! The Teacher’s Guide includes:
The Queen of Hearts excels at baking tarts. But the Knave of Hearts can t keep from stealing them--they are so good! What s a queen to do? Advancing readers will enjoy this entertaining story featuring well-known nursery rhyme characters. This fiction book supports early fluent readers on their journey to independent reading. Engage students natural curiosity with fun and inspiring real-world stories. Perfect for shared or guided reading, this book builds a foundation for a lifelong love of reading.
The Flixies share an entertaining time together in the wetlands. Kwax and Crox, the two water Flixies, stage a play act as though they are some of the ancient lobe-finned fish that first stuck their heads out of water. They crawl about in the muddy waters and wonder it must be like to live on dry land. And so the Flixies learn about all the problems that vertebrates possibly had to face with the transition from life in water to life on land… The Teacher’s Guide includes:
The Flixies (and of course Facto) find out how wonderfully this ‘spaceship’ Earth is built and how it’s been positioned in space so that different forms of life on Earth can be sustained. They are reminded that the earth is exactly the right distance from the sun and therefore has the precise temperature to support and sustain life – it’s neither too cold nor too hot. The Teacher’s Guide includes:
Facto hears how the thousands of plant and animal species are spread across the different regions of South Africa. They’re almost like giant gardens with different species that have adapted to their conditions. The Flixies are excited about the amazing biodiversity in South Africa and they think that it’s a world record for a small country! The Teacher’s Guide includes:
Facto has discovered the Flixies! He eavesdrops on their conversations and by doing so, he learns interesting new facts about the earth and nature. In this story we find out where the Flixies live, where they get their information from and how Facto discovered them... The Teacher’s Guide includes:
Which was the most successful group in the entire animal kingdom? Facto finds out what contributed to the arthropods’ success and why they deserve the title of the first real land animals. The Flixies play a guessing game and they chat about crustaceans, multipedes, spiders and scorpions and the first animals that could fly – the insects! The Teacher’s Guide includes:
