Let's Find Out! Engineering
Although engineers use advanced science, math, and technology to solve problems, the work they do is evident in daily life and accessible to young students. This series allows readers to explore the various fields of engineering, including civil, chemical, electrical, and aerospace engineering. Complex topics and vocabulary are explained thoroughly and supplemented by helpful images and diagrams. Each title includes an activity in which readers can build their own models of a bridge, a windmill, and much more.
• Activity allows readers to apply their knowledge
• Students can use domain-specific vocabulary they've learned from the book to effectively explain the text
• Answers the growing call for high quality early grade science materials and, more specifically, the early introduction of engineering principles and practices
• Supports the Next Generation Science Standards with in-depth looks at engineering practices and their relationship to science including hypothesizing and testing, trial and error, observation, and data collection and interpretation
