Description

Spike, the garden spider, is fascinated with the world of science. As he munches on another juicy fly and sits on his silky web, his head is brimming with curiosity and questions; on how and why things work, what they are made of, where they are found and their uses? With his super spidery senses, he wants you to join him on his exciting investigations... You can think along with Spike and he will reveal great science facts and help you with exciting experiments, using everyday items to set up superstar challenges for the great discoverers and scientists among you...and the real superstars could be awarded super spidery prizes. Before each topic, Spike gives a comment, or a very corny joke. Together, you will learn correct scientific language and terminology and how to apply it, all in a very fun way. With his magnifying glass ready, Spike awaits adventure... What are you waiting for?

About the Author
Ann Dale has always had a great interest in science. Upon leaving school, she entered the challenging world of the analytical chemist, where she faced a plethora of demanding analysis each day, to quench her thirst. After previously finding some aspects of science difficult, she understood the need for clarity with the younger generation, especially after working as a teaching assistant in a primary school environment. She now wants to impart her scientific knowledge to a wider audience in a concise yet fun way.
Dedication
To Jeanie with grateful thanks, my inspiration.

Note from Author
Subjects covered in this book cover key areas in the ks2 science curriculum
Although specialist vocabulary and technical terminology is applied, all necessary for enriched understanding, subjects are approached in a fun and enquiry manner to aid understanding and help develop a child’s own curiosity.
Where applicable, fun facts are given and suggestions for practical activities which supplement the essential tools of observing over the time, pattern seeking, identifying classifying and grouping comparative and fair testing and research using secondary sources.
I aim to spark and inspire that interest in a subject area many children find boring or difficult.
That is how it started for me many moons ago and has become my real passion.
“If you are not willing to learn,
No-one can help you
If you are determined to learn.
No-one can stop you!” Anon.

Hi! I’m spike.
I just love science.
I like learning how things work and why they work.
I love experimenting and investigating, it gets my spider senses singing.
If you find science hard at school or really want to challenge yourself, then follow me through this book.
We can learn and investigate together!
Let’s Go!
Living Things

What would you think is a living thing?
Think Along with spike.
What do live things need?
Why do they need them?
Flora: A Plant

She is a living thing
I have labelled Flora’s body parts. Although it is not a body like you and I have.
Flora cannot eat like us.
Do you know how she makes her food?
She makes food in her Leaves
Although she absorbs source some nutrient, for example: minerals up through her roots
Like your body supports you, Flora’s stem support her and holds her up to the light. It also carries those minerals and water through Flora’s body. Her roots anchor her to the ground. They continue to grow and search for water when it is hot and dry.
Her flower can be colourful and scented or it may be small and hard to notice. Flora has a colourful flower and all the insects, like hoverflies, are attracted to it we will look at why she needs these insects later. I sit nearby-it is a ready meal for me!
Spike says:
Many hundreds of years ago, tulips, a flower which grows in spring time from a bulb: and came from Holland, was worth more than gold!
