Chris Ferrie has delighted children and families around the world with his unique take on science with his board book series. Now it's time for beginning readers to experience this information for themselves! From general relativity to quantum physics, from astrophysics to rocket science, Brainy Science will intrigue and teach young scientists a variety of subjects with simple, easy-to-read text. These beginning reader books include: - easy vocabulary - short sentences - word repetition - simple content and stories - correlation between art and text

What are the forces behind ballistics? Why do rocks and rockets soar through the air in an arch?

The game is on the line. Suddenly, you hear the crack of a bat and the roar of crowd. Where will the ball land? How far will it travel? Is it a home run?

You might think that hitting a home run or nailing a three-pointer is just luck, but there are many forces at work that determine if you’ve made a game-winning shot or the final out. If you’ve ever kicked a ball, thrown a rock, or even played Angry Birds, you’ve experimented with the forces behind ballistics.

In Projectile Science: The Physics Behind Kicking a Field Goal and Launching a Rocket with Science Activities for Kids, kids ages 10 to 15 learn why projectiles follow the paths they do and what factors influence those paths. Readers who are fascinated with potato cannons, slingshots, and rocketry will love taking that next step and applying what they learn about the laws of physics to the science of figuring out where to aim.

Math is the language you use to understand the science of ballistics. In this book, readers will learn about the forces that act on the projectiles and how to calculate those forces to make educated predictions about where their homemade rockets and other projectiles will land. Safe, hands-on STEM activities using materials that are easy to acquire are a terrific way to foster real-life learning about ballistics. Kids will perform Galileo's famous test for gravity, create clinometers to measure height and distance, and build a machine that can throw curve balls.

Essential questions that promote critical examination of the science, primary sources, online videos, and science-minded engineering activities let readers have a blast learning about the physics of ballistics!

Physics Now! 11-14 is one of three Pupil's Books that cover the requirements of the National Curriculum for science at Key Stage 3, the Common Entrance Examination at 13+ syllabus and equivalent junior science courses. Based on Physics Now! 11-14, the clear text and colourful illustrations and photographs fully explain the concepts and encourage background reading. Boxed sections are used to show how scientific ideas have developed and how they are applied in today's world. Throughout there are numerous questions that test a range of skills including comprehension, application, analysis and evaluation. These may be used as a basis for classwork or homework. There are also 'For discussion' sections to encourage group discussion. In this new edition, the Chapters have been reorganised to reflect the QCA Scheme of Work and there is additional information of fuses and circuit breakers, energy transfers and transmitting electricity, the effects of gravity and ways of measuring speed. There is also an expanded Chapter on the Solar Sysytem. Each book has a glossary and is supported by a Teacher's Resource Book that contains details of practical work.

These supplementary materials provide teachers with a range of additional information and resources to support the use of the Core Physics Pupil's Book. They include: an explanation of the progression and differentiation built into each pupil s text; answers to all the in-topic questions in the pupil's text; suggestions for practical activities that reinforce each topic; worksheets to support the pupil's text; and additional questions that provide further opportunities for in-class work or homework, targeted at different ability levels.
