SCIENCE LIBRARY

This book is a useful guide to organize activities and lessons for pupils. This is a

very helpful book for those new to the idea of CLIL. It is full of helpful tips and

ideas to get you into the way of diagnosing and supplying students' needs.

New Chemistry for You is designed to introduce pupils

to the basic ideas of Chemistry. It will show you how these ideas help to explain

about the materials in our world, and how they can be changed. From our trainers to the space shuttle, chemists work to develop new materials.

The "Usborne Illustrated Dictionary of Science" is truly an excellent effort. At nearly

400 pages this book is packed with fundamental scientific concepts and facts in the

fields of physics, chemistry and biology. There are no exercise questions or difficult

mathematics, instead this book focuses on concepts and explaining the key ideas

behind each topic. The scientific ideas are very well presented here, making use of

clear, colourful and illuminating diagrams and tight prose. This book serves as a

very good reference work for basic scientific knowledge and theory and is especially suitable for young learners.

Subjects: The first chemists, elements, atoms and

molecules, compounds, the periodic table, metals, nonmetals, air, burning

reactions, noble gases, chemical reactions, oxidation and reduction, acids and

bases, forming salts, electricity and chemistry, chemistry of carbon, organic

synthesis, synthetic materials, chemical analysis and the chemical industry.

The Science Book: Everything You Need to Know About the World and How It Works (National Geographic)

The Science Book encapsulates centuries of scientific thought in one richly illustrated volume. Natural phenomena, revolutionary inventions, and the most up-to-date investigations are explained in detailed text, and 2,000 vivid illustrations—including 3-D graphics and pictograms—make the information even more accessible and amazing to discover.

The Nature of Science: An A-Z Guide to the Laws and Principles Governing Our Universe

A physics professor (George Mason Univ.) and science popularizer (The Edge of the Unknown: 101 Things You Don't Know About Science and No One Else Does Either), Trefil has compiled a concise A-to-Z encyclopedia of the laws of nature, broadly defined, and how they have developed in relation to one another. His introduction itself is a gem, explaining how science progresses through observation, experimentation, and hypothesis testing. Each two- to four-page article explains a scientific concept (variously called a principle, theory, effect, or law) or a defining experiment in physics, astronomy, chemistry, geology, biology, or mathematics
