A motivational and hopeful school handbook for students navigating
uncertain times, by the nation's Head Teacher, Matthew Burton.
'You're now at secondary school - you've settled in, made some friends,
possibly a few enemies and you know the subjects you like and the ones
you loathe. Added to that, you've just managed to survive the most
BONKERS year ever - a pandemic, no school, exam chaos - whhhhat. Are
you feeling a little frazzled? Like you can't be bothered? That
everything is just pointless? We all feel like that from time to time.
But there are things you can do to get back your mojo, find a bit of
hope and get back on track.'
Whether facing assessments, a big change or having to make up for lost
time, Head Teacher Matthew Burton is here to help students get
motivated again.
From ways to manage the tough times and solve even the biggest
problems, to skills for beating school stress and tapping into your
potential, this is the one-stop guide for kids who are in need of a bit
of hope, some soothing words of advice and a good old pep talk to get
them going in school again.
Whatever it is that young people are worried about, this book is
crammed with advice so that though things at school might seem really
hard, they will soon be back on track and raring to go.

Go behind the scenes of weather forecasting with TV meteorologist
Guy Brown! Guy shares his weather journal to show you exactly what
weather forecasting is like--from reading satellite images at the
studio, to going on location in inclement weather conditions. Since
weather affects all living things, predicting and responding to
changes in the weather is important to both humans and animals. In
his journal, Guy will tell you all about how humans and animals
alike respond to things like blinding fog, crackling thunderstorms,
and whirling tornadoes. With Mario Lugo's vivid art, readers see
some of the amazing clouds that bring us wildly different weather
and learn how animals use their adaptations to weather the storms.
Guy introduces readers to cloud identification techniques while
sharing a glimpse into survival, in town and in the wild. So bring
your rain boots, pack some sunscreen, and get ready for a weather
adventure! Don't forget to watch the clouds and take notes along
the way. By the end, you'll be ready to become a meteorologist just
like Guy.
