Speakers have only one job. To deliver sound! Whether it's your iPod, radio, or television, without speakers you wouldn't be able to hear anything. From currents, to magnets, coils and cones, and amplification and volume, all the intricate parts of a speaker are addressed to show how they make sound possible. So, put your headphones on and start listening to your favorite sounds! This book will allow students to plan and conduct investigations to provide evidence that vibrating materials can make sound and that sound can make materials vibrate.

Gr 1-3-Intended for a young school-age audience, these books do not shy away from tackling complex concepts in an easy-to-understand way. Even the youngest readers can learn the basics of aerodynamics (Airplanes) and drive gears (Escalators) without feeling overwhelmed. Uncluttered and streamlined, the clean design makes the vibrant images pop without drawing focus away from the content. Questions within the text actively engage readers to think about the science-based ideas critically, and the noteworthy "Photo Glossary" provides the audience with a visual frame of reference by connecting an image from the text to the word it's defining. A "Before and After Reading Activities" section at the beginning of each volume should prove helpful to educators as they integrate STEM titles into the curriculum. Ideal offerings.
