Deadly Science Book - BUNDLE

Deadly Science - Animal Adaptations - Book 1 Living things are fantastically adapted to their environments. In order to survive, animals have developed features like thick winter coats, the ability to camouflage themselves and even techniques for going without water for long stretches of time.
In this book, students investigate the different types of adaptations that animals might have to help them survive and thrive in their particular environment, and then explore a range of key Australian habitats, from deserts to rainforests.

Deadly Science - Wild Weather - Book 2 Extreme weather events, from bushfires to floods, and sudden geological changes, from earthquakes to tsunamis, have an enormous impact on our planet.
In this book, students investigate different examples of extreme weather, focusing on examples from around Australia, and learn how these events affect living and non-living aspects of the environment.
Students will investigate the past, learning how Indigenous Australians have recorded and documented geological events, and also look to the future, focusing on how science is giving us better understanding of weather patterns and events, and new tools for managing natural disasters.

Deadly Science - Life Cycles - Book 3

Every living thing on our planet experiences a life cycle. From fertilisation, to birth, through life and death, plants and animals undergo key stages of development. In this book, students explore the life cycles living things such as of insects, birds, whales and flowering plants and discover the environmental factors that can affect these processes.

Deadly Science - Earth's Changing Surfaces - Book 4

Geological forces throughout history have continually re-designed earth’s natural landscape as our planet evolves and undergo changes. Today the constant effects of shifting tectonic plates, eruptions, erosion, desertification, and climate change continue to re-shape and redefine our home. Inside of this book, you will find the tools, both modern and indigenous, to understand and navigate the difficulties ahead as we learn to live with Earth’s internal and powerful forces

Deadly Science - The Solar System - Book 5

From planets made of gas, to stars made of fire, our vast Solar System is filled with mysteries still to be explored and solved. Did you know that the world’s first astronomers were Indigenous Australians over 35,000 years ago? These Australians were the first humans to closely observe and note the movement of the planet and stars in space. So, buckle up and get ready to navigate the nebulas and comets with us as we explore space and begin to unravel the intricacies of our little corner of the Milky Way.

Deadly Science - Animal Survival - Book 6

Engaging topics that will inspire primary-aged kids to ask questions, experiment and learn about how scientific principles impact the way we live.

Deadly Science - How Plants Thrive - Book 7

Engaging topics that will inspire primary-aged kids to ask questions, experiment and learn about how scientific principles impact the way we live.

Deadly Science - Renewable Resources - Book 8

Engaging topics that will inspire primary-aged kids to ask questions, experiment and learn about how scientific principles impact the way we live.

Deadly Science - Numbers In Nature - Book 9

Mathematical concepts are all around us — in nature, architecture, art, biology, computer science and in our everyday lives. Did you know that natural processes, such as how bees swarm, have been used as a model for computer algorithms, or that boomerangs work using similar aerodynamic concepts as aircraft? Explore how number patterns, symmetry, algebra, geometry and other maths concepts have been applied by First Australians for millennia.

Deadly Science - Light and Colour - Book 10

Light from our Sun and other sources is all around, bringing colour, heat and energy. Over time, humans have harnessed light to create fire, fluorescent light and even scientific equipment like lasers. But light and colour are tricky. Too much or too little light changes our body chemistry, when it bends it can fool our eyes, and it can even act like a wave or a particle! Explore what First Australians and scientists have learned about the incredible properties of light and colour.
