  Code IT Primary Programming Series 
  Basic computer coding is now among the most important skills a child can have for their future. There are many programming languages designed specifically for children to begin their studies, but the Scratch programming language, already recognised in schools around the world, is widely considered as the ideal place to begin programming in early education. 
  The highly successful Code-It series is a comprehensive guide to teaching Scratch to children in a classroom setting. It is designed for the UK-based KS2 curriculum but can easily be used to supplement other programming courses for children between the ages of 7 and 11. 
  There are four pupil workbooks designed to work in conjunction with the Code-It teacher handbook. They provide structure and resources for the children, including optional homework activities to extend to learning outside the classroom.  
  Workbook 3 explains how to think, program and debug exciting programming projects such as  Counting Machine, Music Abstraction, Random Word, Coin Sorter, Crab Maze, Toilet Fan, Car Park Barrier and Angle Menu.  It also explains how to use analytical computational thinking skills for algorithm design, algorithm evaluation, decomposition, generalisation and abstraction; extend resilience and problem solving through the computational doing skills of converting algorithm into code and debugging; expand pupils’ knowledge of sequence, repetition, selection and variable use; introduce the basic use of a list; and program Lego models using Lego Wedo and Scratch.

  The Advance of Science in the Last Half-Century (1887) is a review by Thomas Henry Huxley. Excerpt from the book: "I am conscious that in undertaking to give even the briefest sketch of the progress of physical science, in all its branches, during the last half-century, I may be thought to have exhibited more courage than discretion, and perhaps more presumption than either. So far as physical science is concerned, the days of Admirable Crichtons have long been over, and the most indefatigable of hard workers may think he has done well if he has mastered one of its minor subdivisions. Nevertheless, it is possible for anyone, who has familiarized himself with the operations of science in one department, to comprehend the significance, and even to form a general estimate of the value, of the achievements of specialists in other departments."

  An “entertaining [and] eminently readable” exploration of our home planet from the New York Times–bestselling author of Don’t Know Much About History(Publishers Weekly). 
   
  Geography is much more than naming countries on a map or memorizing state capitals. It’s the hub from which other disciplines radiate: meteorology, ecology, geology, oceanography, demographics, cartography, agricultural studies, economics, and political science. Yet many of us don’t know much about it. This fun and fascinating guide can change that! 
   
  In addition to presenting plenty of geographical trivia to impress your friends, Kenneth C. Davis explores 21st-century topics of global concern, including the role of the Internet and technology in transforming the lives of people around the world, how so-called developing nations develop, sustainability, and debates over climate change and evolutionary science. This completely revised and updated version of Don't Know Much About Geography is an illuminating grand tour of planet Earth. 
   
  “Reading [Kenneth C. Davis] is like returning to the classroom of the best teacher you ever had.” —People

  Men's Brains - The Male Brain...

  How do men think? 
  It is no secret that a male’s brain is different from a female’s brain. And although every person is different anyway, there are some generalizations that are true for the most part. The question is: Why would you need to know about this anyway? Well, first of all, if you know about these things, you can save yourself a lot of frustration. You may be wondering why your partner or someone from the other gender acts the way they do, but if you know about this, you’ll understand why. Second, isn’t it just interesting to see how nature has shaped the two sexes in different ways to be complementary to each other? The differences are sometimes humorous, and sometimes, they just make sense. 
  So let’s dive into this simple, but revealing, study of the differences, with the focus on the male’s brain. You will hear:The human brain size and how it relates to the sexesHow men and women age differentlyWhy men are kind of like waffles: Laugh at the comparisonWhat men should do when a woman is crying, and what definitely not to do How to improve the productivity of your brainIn which ways the brains are physically built in both sexes and how this impacts the way we think 
  If you want to understand the man’s brain better, and compare it to how women think, then this is the time to learn more about it. You can use this knowledge when you’re married, dating, or simply interacting with the other 50 percent of the world, which is the other gender. When you ask me, this is kind of important...only kind of, right? 
  Don’t hesitate. Add this book to your cart now.

  The House of Owls

  Tony Angell

  For a quarter of a century, Tony Angell and his family shared the remarkable experience of closely observing pairs of western screech owls that occupied a nesting box outside the window of their forest home. The journals in which the author recorded his observations, along with the captivating drawings he created, form the heart of this compelling book-a personal account of an artist-naturalist's life with owls. Angell's extensive illustrations show owls engaged in what owls do-hunting, courting, raising families, and exercising their inquisitive natures-and reveal his immeasurable respect for their secret lives and daunting challenges. Angell discusses the unique characteristics that distinguish owls from other bird species and provides a fascinating overview of the impact owls have had on human culture and thought. He also offers detailed scientific descriptions of the nineteen species of owls found in North America, as well as their close relatives elsewhere. Always emphasizing the interaction of humans and owls, the author affirms by his own example the power of these birds both to beguile and to inspire.
