The Brilliant Support Activities series contains reproducible
activities for use with slower learners or pupils with various
learning difficulties operating at the lower levels of
understanding at Key Stage 1 and Key Stage 2. The activities in the
books follow the areas of science outlined in the Programmes of
Study of the 2014 Science National Curriculum for years 1-3 and
selected topics of years 4 and 5. The books introduce one concept
per sheet, using simple language and clear, black line
illustrations making them easy to read and understand.
Understanding Living Things contains 41 reproducible sheets to help
pupils understand some aspects of 'Everyday Biology - Plants and
Animals'. The activities included in the book will help to develop
the essential scientific enquiry skills as outlined in the National
Curriculum (Working Scientifically), namely those of Observation,
Predicting, Recording and Drawing Conclusions. The worksheets focus
on life processes common to all living things, humans and other
animals and green plants, as well as on how living things relate to
their environment.

enquiry by requiring pupils to plan and carry out practical
activities, consider evidence, and present ideas and conclusions.
The sheets focus on life processes common to all living things,
humans and other animals, green plants, as well as on how living
things relate to their environment. The three books in the
Brilliant Support Activities Science series are an ideal way of
introducing scientific terms in Welsh. The books are designed to
develop the essential skills of observation, predicting, recording
and drawing conclusions. The books contain a mixture of paper-based
tasks and 'hands on' activities. The reproducible worksheets
introduce one concept or statement per sheet (unless they are
review sheets), and they can be used in any order. They are
designed for use by individual pupils or to be used as a class
activity if all the class are working at the same ability range.

Based on the New York Times bestselling book and the Academy
Award-nominated movie, author Margot Lee Shetterly and Coretta
Scott King Illustrator Honor Award winner Laura Freeman bring the
incredibly inspiring true story of four black women who helped NASA
launch men into space to picture book readers! Dorothy Vaughan,
Mary Jackson, Katherine Johnson, and Christine Darden were good at
math...really good. They participated in some of NASA's greatest
successes, like providing the calculations for America's first
journeys into space. And they did so during a time when being black
and a woman limited what they could do. But they worked hard. They
persisted. And they used their genius minds to change the world. In
this beautifully illustrated picture book edition, we explore the
story of four female African American mathematicians at NASA, known
as "colored computers," and how they overcame gender and racial
barriers to succeed in a highly challenging STEM-based career.
"Finally, the extraordinary lives of four African American women
who helped NASA put the first men in space is available for picture
book readers," proclaims Brightly in their article "18 Must-Read
Picture Books of 2018." "Will inspire girls and boys alike to love
math, believe in themselves, and reach for the stars."

In this book from the critically acclaimed, multimillion-copy
bestselling Little People, BIG DREAMS series, discover the life of
Rosalind Franklin, the scientist who was crucial to the discovery
of the double helix in DNA. Little Rosalind was born in London to a
Jewish family who valued education and public service, and as she
grew up her huge intellectual abilities were drawn into the study
of science. Having studied physics and chemistry at Cambridge
University, Rosalind moved to Paris to perfect her life's work in
X-ray crystallography. She then moved back to King's College
London, where she would work on finding the structure of DNA with
Maurice Wilkins. It was Rosalind's "photo 51" that was used by
Wilkins to create the first ever double helix DNA model with
Francis Crick, although he did not credit for her work due to a
falling out between the two, and her work went unacknowledged until
after her death. However, today she is revered as the forgotten
heroine of the study of how DNA works, and the "Sylvia Plath of
molecular biology". This moving book features stylish and quirky
illustrations and extra facts at the back, including a biographical
timeline with historical photos and a detailed profile of the
brilliant scientist's life. Little People, BIG DREAMS is a
bestselling series of books and educational games that explore the
lives of outstanding people, from designers and artists to
scientists and activists. All of them achieved incredible things,
yet each began life as a child with a dream. This empowering series
offers inspiring messages to children of all ages, in a range of
formats. The board books are told in simple sentences, perfect for
reading aloud to babies and toddlers. The hardback versions present
expanded stories for beginning readers. Boxed gift sets allow you
to collect a selection of the books by theme. Paper dolls, learning
cards, matching games and other fun learning tools provide even
more ways to make the lives of these role models accessible to
children. Inspire the next generation of outstanding people who
will change the world with Little People, BIG DREAMS!
