How Does It Move? Forces and Motion

Physics is considered a subject for secondary-school students, yet its laws govern things we, at any age, witness every day. This age-appropriate series introduces young readers to the laws of motion, thermodynamics, and the properties of waves through easy-to-comprehend examples. Students are also shown how these former mysteries were unraveled by problem-solving scientists. These books provide a foundation on which an understanding of this area of science can be built.
Each Book Contains:
? A glossary of terms that will advance a student's understanding of science
? An activity to provide first-hand experience with a scientific concept
? A sidebar on a person who discovered or advanced our knowledge of the scientific principle
? A quiz to aid in student comprehension
Curriculum Connections:
? Students learn about the many forces that cause and affect motion
? The concepts of the conservation of energy and the transfer of energy are illustrated in easy-to-understand examples
? Earth's place in the universe and the ways the laws of motion and energy govern life are explained
