People get energy from food and use energy to exercise. This book teaches young readers about chemical and kinetic energy and explains how electricity and fossil fuels are energy sources.

Lets pre-k through second-grade students set up a course of ramps, pendulums, hammers and more...then drop a ball onto the tracks and go for the goal box! After each test run, kids will fine-tune the placement, distance and angle of each piece getting firsthand practice with STEM concepts such as gravity, force and momentum! Perfect for open-ended building or kids can use the leveled challenge cards to create a variety of different courses from scratch!...

With a drop of the ball onto the tracks, kids will find out whether their course works—fine-tuning the distance and angle of the pieces until the ball reaches the goal box. Perfect for building 21st-century skills like perseverance and STEM problem solving, our set even lets students create their very own chain reaction courses—for unlimited building possibilities!

Follows the adventures of Max Axiom as he explains the science behind forces and motion. Written in graphic-novel format.

Provides information on force and motion, including how the laws of force and motion developed, what are some different types of motion, how force and motion are related, and more.

Learn why projectiles follow the paths they do and what factors influence those paths. Readers who are fascinated with potato cannons, slingshots, and rocketry will love taking that next step and applying what they learn about the laws of physics to the science of figuring out where to aim.

"An introduction to the six simple machines-the screw, lever, wedge, pulley, inclined plane, and the wheel and axle-and examples of how they are used in real life"--
