The Sun: Our Nearest Star: Let's Read and Find out Science - 2

I used this book to teach about earth science.

Livro é bom, mas a leitura não é envolvente.

This book is written with very clear and concise information for a child (and a 37 year old mum) to understand. It is a Stage 2 book, which they state "explore more challenging concepts for children in the primary grades." It states the intended age range of this book is 5-9 years old. The artwork inside is, they say, created using a computer so does appear a lot flatter and less appealing that the illustrations in some of their other Stage 2 books. Nevertheless, I thought it presented basic information in a fun and very interesting way and there are 2 experiments at the end that really get the children to put what they have learned into practice. This really does help to reinforce the information they have just learnt. Yet another excellent book from the Lets-Read-And-Find-Out About series of science books.

I needed to find books to help me teach kindergarten children in Colorado about the sun's energy. I have purchased many trying to find the right one. This book is great. It seems like it has been around for awhile....didn't check copyright, but it was worth buying for sure. Not so technical that a kindergarten student would get bored but still great information.

This is a very educational book that is written in kid-friendly language. It got my third grade students engaged and interested in learning about the sun.
