About the book Superhero Scientists is brimming full of amazing
people who are involved in the fascinating world of science. This
beautifully illustrated book explores the work of famous scientists
from long ago, other scientists who are alive today and people who
use science in their jobs. Take a journey through the 21 chapters
packed full of fabulous facts, life stories and scientific
discoveries. From astrophysicists to pilots, epidemiologists to
vets, marine biologists to scene of crime officers - the book
details why they are all superheroes. The people included are
representative of the world's diverse community. As a non-fiction
reader for children Superhero Scientists is a great text for a 7-11
year old to read independently or with an adult. The book will help
children to learn about the many scientific professions in the
world and the discoveries that these incredible people have made.
The text in each chapter is laid out in manageable chunks to make
the information accessible. Photos and illustrations help to bring
the stories to life. Superhero Scientists breaks away from the
stereotypical view of a scientist and empowers children to believe
that anyone can follow a career in science. As a classroom resource
Superhero Scientists is the perfect book for teachers who want
children to research about scientists and then demonstrate their
learning with a creative and innovative written outcome. The first
section of each chapter is jam-packed full of fascinating facts and
information about the life and work of the scientists. This makes
it an ideal resource to use as a class text. Children can read the
main body of the chapter either independently, in a group, or as a
whole class. The final part of each chapter, which can be
introduced by the class teacher, outlines an exciting way for the
children to share what they have learnt from reading about the
scientist. From letters posted in magical time-portal letter boxes
to raps written for YouTube shows, each chapter's written outcome
is unique and engaging. The 'How to make your writing great'
sections can be used as success criteria to help children scaffold
their written responses.
