This is an awesome e-book that I chose to use with my 6th and 8th graders for one of our group science texts. It was pretty fun and engaging, with plenty of photos and diagrams throughout. I like using children's books when learning something new, even as an adult, because things are presented in terms that will make sense. This is no exception. The self-checking quiz at the end gave plenty of talking points for concluding discussions as we were wrapping up the subject. Of course, the hands-on activities were all doable with items from the household, which is always nice. ( )Esta reseña ha sido escrita para Sorteo de miembros LibraryThing. The earth rotates on its axis giving us day and night. In this book, author Hubbard discuss how the earth itself is made of many moving parts called tectonic plates that are also constantly moving. There are 12 essay questions, an activity section, and glossary. This is the third book in the In Depth Science Book series. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
What do ancient reptile fossils have to do with radioactive atoms deep inside the Earth's mantle? What causes earthquakes and volcanic eruptions? Why are there strange creatures living deep beneath the ocean surface, where hot water and chemicals spew out of cracks in the ocean floor? The answer to all of these is the same: plate tectonics. Over the last century, scientists have discovered how heat generated deep inside the Earth drives movements of the mantle and crust - and how in our Solar System, this process is almost unique to our home planet. All of this is real, cutting-edge science, written at a level that kids can read and understand. At the end of the book, you will find a self-quiz to test your new knowledge and fun hands-on activities that build on the science.Judith Hubbard is a geology professor with a Ph.D. from Harvard University and a B.S. from Caltech - and also two young children. She started the In Depth Science series with the goal of making college-level science accessible to kids as young as eight years old. No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |
