This title lets you use your child's favourite books to explore and investigate the world of science. Young children are investigators by nature, just like scientists. They question our world, asking Why? How? When? and What if? They are curious about our climate and the creatures that occupy our Earth. They make predictions and use materials and tools in creative, new ways. They even problem solve and experiment as they process new ideas. With the help of the stories and activities in Where Does My Shadow Sleep? take the time to watch, wonder, ask questions, talk about, and explore the world of science with your child. You can use favorite children's books to investigate animals and insects, learn how plants grow and change, and discover how shadows grow and shrink. With four chapters that cover a multitude of themes, it's never been easier to deepen your child's understanding of important science and reading concepts at the same time!
