CurioSteps STEM (Grade 5): *My Working World* (CurioSteps STEM Series) baixar o livro de graça

My Working World is Book 5 of the CurioSteps STEM Series, created by Francis Mushi, PhD, MBA. It has 176 full-colour pages, 28 chapters and six hands-on investigations covering the Grade 5 programme: the human body, changes in matter, forces on structures and energy conservation.

Grade 5 is the year the invisible starts to explain the visible. The body becomes a team of systems. Matter is built from particles too small to see. A bridge standing still is revealed to be full of forces.

Every chapter follows the S.P.A.R.K. Learning Model

• See It: hunt for three things hidden in a large illustrated scene.

• Predict It: commit to a guess before finding out.

• Act It Out: follow five steps using things already in the house.

• Reason It: explore six illustrated facts that explain what happened.

• Keep It: draw it, write it and share it with somebody.

Built so children ask for the next chapter

• 34 collectible badges on a three-page Curiosity Passport, plus two sticker sheets.

• 139 star points with named milestones, tracked on a full star page.

• A game in every chapter: circle it, order it, true or false, or match the pairs.

• “Bot made a silly mistake!” in all 28 chapters: spot the error and fix it.

• A Family STEM Mission in every chapter for one grown-up and one child.

• Choose Your Path: three different ways to finish, and the child picks.

• The CurioSteps Championship, a Champion badge and a certificate of achievement.
