Fascinating explanations of ELECTRICITY.

It’s everywhere. In our homes, schools, offices, on the train, in our cars—even inside our bodies!

Electricity: Circuits, Static, and Electromagnets with Hands-On Science Activities for Kids explores the science of electricity and the technology we’ve developed to harness the energy to power our lives. By diving into the topics of static electricity, currents, circuits, electromagnetism, motors, and ways we might produce and use electricity in the future, young engineers gain a full view of how electricity works and why it’s so important to human society.

Discover the natural force of GRAVITY.

What’s up? What’s down? What’s keeping you steady?

In Gravity: Mass, Energy, and the Force that Holds Things Together with Hands-On Science Activities for Kids, young scientists explore the invisible but powerful force that is responsible for keeping the entire universe in place—including you! Gravity is the natural phenomenon that makes everything in the universe attracted to everything else. On Earth, that means gravity is why we fall down toward the ground, the reason we have tides, and why we weigh a certain number of pounds.

John Lewis’s parents raised him to work hard and always obey the law. In his mother’s eyes, nothing was more disgraceful than being hauled off to jail like a common criminal. So, when the 20-year-old Lewis committed a crime and was put in jail, you might imagine he felt deeply ashamed. But he didn’t. He felt proud.

Poems can be silly, serious, or fun, just like kids! Whether it’s the sing-song rhythm of a limerick, the serendipitous magic of a found poem, the deceptive simplicity of a haiku, or the easy familiarity of an acrostic poem, children are charmed by poetry. In Explore Poetry! With 25 Great Projects children have fun learning about many different forms of poetry while delving into different literary techniques such as personification, metaphor, and alliteration.
