Some suggestions for how to use these pages:
Most of the pages in the science section of Kidipede come in pairs - a page explaining a new concept, linked to a page with a project that reinforces that concept. It's better to read the page first and then do the activity. While you can read the pages in any order, some trajectories are easier than others. Here are some suggestions:
- From the Big Bang to the formation of the planet Earth.
- From the formation of Earth to the Quaternary Era
- From simpler atoms to heavier ones
- From the earliest cells to eukaryotes
- From eukaryotes to flowering plants
- From eukaryotes to people
- Plant vascular systems from eukaryotes to trees
- Plant reproduction from eukaryotes to flowering plants
- Animal skeletal systems from eukaryotes to mammals
- Animal reproduction from eukaryotes to people
- Animal digestive systems from eukaryotes to mammals
- Animal circulatory systems from eukaryotes to mammals
- Simple machines
- Perimeters, areas, and volumes of geometrical shapes
- Weather - thunderstorms, tornadoes, hurricanes
