Description
Equip the next generation of scientists with a brand new series from Chris Ferrie, the #1 science author for kids!
Ouch! Red Kangaroo feels a static electricity shock while trying to open the door. She wants to know why this happens to her—especially in the winter. Go with the flow as Dr. Chris teaches Red Kangaroo all about how electricity moves and how electric charges are produced.
Chris Ferrie offers a kid-friendly introduction to electrical engineering in this installment of his new Everyday Science Academy series. With real-world and practical examples, young readers will have a firm grasp of scientific and mathematical concepts to help answer many of their "why" questions.
Perfect for elementary-aged children and supports the Common Core Learning Standards, Next Generation Science Standards, and the Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM) standards.
Backmatter includes a glossary, comprehension questions aligned with Bloom's Taxonomy and experiments kids can easily do at school or at home!
About the author
Contributor Notes
Dr. Chris Ferrie is a physicist, mathematician, and father of four budding young scientists. Dr. Chris's lab is in Sydney, Australia, where he loves answering questions from students of all ages! Red Kangaroos also live in Australia, but don't seem to be as interested in science.
