The biosphere is made up of all the living things on Earth as well as the land, water, and air where living things exist. The different parts of the biosphere work together to support life. Each type of plant and animal lives in a place that provides what it needs to grow and survive. Plants need to live in a place where they get the soil, air, and sunlight needed to make their own food. Animals need to live where they can get food from plants and/or other animals. Both plants and animals need the right amount of water and the right kind of weather and temperatures. An environment includes…mehr

The biosphere is made up of all the living things on Earth as well as the land, water, and air where living things exist. The different parts of the biosphere work together to support life.

Plants need to live in a place where they get the soil, air, and sunlight needed to make their own food. Animals need to live where they can get food from plants and/or other animals. Both plants and animals need the right amount of water and the right kind of weather and temperatures. An environment includes everything that surrounds a living thing in the area where it lives, and different types of plants and animals require different environments. A habitat is the area within an environment that has all the things a particular plant or animal needs to live. Learning about environments and habitats helps us know how to keep plants and animals healthy. Pronunciation guide. 24 pages filled with engaging, colorful illustrations.

Autorenporträt
Dr. Rebecca Woodbury received her Ph.D. in biophysical chemistry from the University of New Mexico in 1992. She was awarded a National Science Foundation postdoctoral fellowship in the Department of Molecular Biology at the University of New Mexico, followed by a Burroughs Wellcome Fund Postdoctoral Fellowship in the Department of Molecular Biology at the University of California, Berkeley.While home schooling her three children, Dr. Woodbury was unable to find a curriculum that provided a solid foundation in science. She left academia, and using her scientific background coupled with her love of learning, she developed a series of science books for kids.The Real Science-4-Kids curriculum provides students with a solid foundation in science and gives them the tools to evaluate scientific data on their own. "We should not rely on the 'experts' but instead learn how to critically evaluate every scientific claim," states Dr. Woodbury."In these uncertain times with so many social, scientific, and economic problems, it is not enough to teach our kids what to learn. We must also teach them how to learn, and we must encourage our kids to learn from others. Part of learning from others is to know how to engage in productive debate."The Real Science-4-Kids engaging, kid-friendly curriculum provides a solid science education in chemistry, biology, physics, geology, and astronomy. This curriculum is used in all 50 states in the US and many other countries. Dr. Woodbury and her publishing team continue to develop and test new products for both home school and public school students.
