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 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 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 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 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.

Facto listens to what the Flixies have to say about water and learns that it is magical material!

No form of life, as we know it, can exist without water. It is an amazing solvent as all food for animals and plants must first be dissolved in water before it can be absorbed. It also used for washing and cleansing and even to cool off. But our supply of usable water is actually extremely limited…

We call living things on Earth, crew members and not passengers…

Flex and Dux tells us about the earth that is covered by a thin layer of atmosphere and stays in space exactly the right distance from the sun, in order to carry all living things and to keep them alive.

We learn that plants, animals and humans, each one of them – no matter how big or small – has a niche (a place and task) to make life possible for all on Earth. The Flixies also learn about the cycle of meat eaters, plant eaters and decomposers!

Die aarde is soos 'n ruimteskip saam met al die ander planete in die ruimte op reis. Die groot verskil tussen planeet Aarde en die ander planete is dat ons planeet in die ruimte duisende vorme van lewe saamdra. Flex verduidelik vir die Flixies van die bane waarin die planete om die son wentel en hoe die vorm van hierdie bane sorg dat ons verskillende seisoene het waarin die plante kan rus en kan groei.

The English workbook educator guide is a resource written to support the teaching in The English Workbook series.

The workbooks, designed to improve and develop learners’ literacy skills, consist of ten units of work, each focused on one of the following writing formats: procedures, recounts, expositions, narratives and reports.

Each unit includes:

• Learner analysis of writing form, speaking and listening, group and individual activities, literal, inferential and applied comprehension questions, vocabulary development and extension, spelling strategies and rules practice
• Specific language features of the particular text, such as proper nouns, imperative verbs and punctuation, clearly and concisely explained with practice exercises
• Writing activities focussed on specific writing skills related to the particular genre. Writing topics are set with planning proformas and editing and proofreading checklists. Learner evaluation is included.

Die Flixies leer vir ons een van hulle belangrikste geheime: verskeidenheid. So leer ons wat die woord biodiversiteit beteken en hoekom dit so belangrik is dat ons dit moet verstaan. Facto leer van die baie verskillende soorte plante en diere op Aarde en dat elkeen wat ontdek word, 'n naam moet kry. Ouma Flox verras die Flixies met 'n spesiale stuk borduurwerk...

Facto hoor interessante stories van groen plante – Ruimteskip Aarde se lugversorgers - wat sorg dat daar genoeg suurstof in die atmosfeer is en dat 'n ander giftige gas, kooldioksied, verwyder word. Hy leer by die Flixies van hoe plante ontwikkel het vanaf klein, byna onsigbare mosplantjies, tot die reuse bome wat ons oral sien.

Die eerste groen plante het in water geleef. Omdat toestande op land baie anders is as in water, sou die oudste plante eenvoudig uitdroog en nie kon regop bly sonder die ondersteuning wat water bied nie. Facto leer hoe plante ontwikkel het sodat hulle, hulle op land kon vestig en watter plante op die ou end suksesvol was en oral op land begin groei het...

Die Flixie-stories is geskryf en word in die skole gebruik om twee groot krisisse aan te spreek: ’n omgewingskrisis en ’n geletterdheidskrisis. Ons planeet Aarde is in die nood en jong lesers en hul opvoeders moet bewus gemaak word van biodiversiteit en ons almal se verantwoordelikheid om te sorg vir die kwaliteit van lewe op Aarde.

Facto luister wat die Flixies te sê het oor water en hy hoor dat dit 'n wonderstof is! Geen lewe soos ons dit ken is moontlik sonder water nie. Dit is 'n wonderlike oplosmiddel, wat beteken dat die plante en diere se kos eers daarin moet oplos voordat dit deel van die plant of dier se liggaam kan word. Dit is ook 'n was- en spoelmiddel en dit koel af. Ons voorraad vars water wat bruikbaar is, is baie beperk en die Flixies verduidelik hoekom.

Alles wat op Aarde lewe, is ‘ruimteskip’ Aarde se bemanning en nie passasiers wat net kan saamry nie...

Ons leer dat plante en diere en mense elkeen, hoe klein of hoe groot ookal, 'n spesifieke nis ('n plek en 'n werkie) het om die aarde meer leefbaar te maak vir alles wat moet lewe. Die Flixies leer ook die lewensiklus van vleiseters, planteters en ontbinders!

Die Flixies vertel van een van die belangrikste natuurlike hulpbronne, naamlik grond. Hulle gesels oor die waarde van grond vir plante, diere en mense, maar hulle is ook baie bekommerd...

Al is die aarde so groot en al word dit met grond bedek, is daar eintlik maar bitter min grond waarin plante kan groei en wat bewerk kan word vir gewasse wat mense nodig het vir voedsel. Flex gebruik 'n bessie om hierdie kwessie aan die Flixies te verduidelik.

Oxford Coding and Robotics Apprentice Level 1, in partnership with Resolute Education, comprises a Workbook and Teacher's Guide., for use with the Music and Lights Components Kit. This level introduces learners to the world of block-based coding and the Micro:Bit.

Features

• Clear photos of circuitry and screenshots of coded text teach the key knowledge, skills and values that will help learners progress step by step from creating and testing code in a simulated environment to debugging, uploading and executing the program they created.
• Guided by CLANK the robot, learners use Scratch to code using motion, sensing light and temperature, and conditional statement blocks.
• Learners then use the Micro:bit to practise inputs with buttons, piano touchpad and shake input, outputs with LEDs, LED array, and buzzers.
• The accompanying kit provides all the components learners will need to build their project, while the Resolute online platform contains supplementary materials, interactive exercises and multimedia resources that complement key lessons.
