DOWNLOAD EBOOKMany children--indeed, many adults--believe that there are "good" animals and "bad" animals. The Big Bad Wolf myth lives on. This new story puts predators in an entirely new light as a sensitive young girl, shocked and confused by the death of her cat, learns the roles that predator and prey play in the balance of nature. Gently and gradually, she comes to understand why some animals kill and eat other animals in order to live. It is one of nature's most exciting and important lessons. Children and all who read to them will come away with a new respect for all wildlife. In keeping with our commitment to diversity education, this story also shows an extended family rich in racial and cultural diversity. The important roles that predator and prey play in the balance of nature are gently explained to children in Everybody's Somebody's Lunch. This Teacher's Guide provides educators with information, activities, and play that can easily be incorporated into wildlife and nature study programs. Included are the history of the persecution of predators due to human ignorance and fear; profiles of predatory mammals, invertebrates, reptiles, amphibians, birds, and marine life; humans as predators; and hopeful evidence of change in today's attitudes. These critical environmental lessons are structured so that they are interesting, instructive, and fun.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe complete guide for parents of picky eaters -- how to end mealtime meltdowns and get your children the nutrition they need Does your child regularly refuse foods or throw a fit at mealtimes? Are you concerned she isn't getting enough nutrition, or that that your child's pickiness might be caused by a hidden medical issue? For every frustrated parent, the food chaining method offers a medically-proven, kid-tested solution. Developed by a team of internationally known medical experts, Food Chaining helps you identify the reasons behind your child's picky eating habits -- be it medical, sensory, or because of allergies. Then, with a simple, 6-step method centered around taste, temperature, and texture, target foods are selected that are similar to the ones your child likes, gradually expanding to all food groups. Does your kid like French fries but won't touch veggies? Try hash browns, and slowly expand to sweet potato fries and zucchini sticks -- and then work your way to steamed vegetables. With helpful information about common food allergies, lists of sample food chains, advice for special needs children, as well as a pre-chaining program to prevent food aversions before they develop, Food Chaining is your guide to raising lifelong health eaters.

Topics under each theme (Cycles, Systems, Interactions and Energy) are covered in detail based on the latest primary science syllabus for primary 5 and 6. The language used in this book is simple and easy to understand so that students can easily and effectively learn and understand the concepts of science. A variety of examples and illustrations are found within each topic to generate the interest of the students. In addition, four different types of pictorial icons are used in the book. They point out to students to pay attention to the important information that is given. Example - provide examples and explanations. Alert - bring to students’ attention a concept, term or information that they need to fully and consciously understand. This has been added because it is found that many students have a common misconception of an idea, term or concept in science and it should be rectified. Extra - indicate that more information on the topic is given so that students can increase their knowledge of the subject matter. Experiment - indicate to students the relevant experiments that need to be conducted so as to build knowledge and understanding of a concept. Important points are listed out at the end of each topic under a titled box ‘What I Have Learnt In This Chapter’ for quick and easy reference before the examinations.
