Introduction
- This website began in February 2020.
- Many online videos and lessons had been looked at which do not do the job they should do.
- They rarely tell you that there is an age group for whatever topic it is but, too often, it seems to be a lower age group. This makes it annoying for readers.
- Too often, these online videos and lessons include special language and terms such as mass, matter and gravity which are not explained.
- Children riding on rockets and similar pictures
- are shown everywhere in online lessons.
- This website has done that now and then in the early pages. See the rocket picture again.
- Imagine you travel to the other side of the universe for what you think is a year. Your ten year old brother when you left has three grandchildren when you return.
- Scientists support such imagination with loads of maths.
- It is the most well known maths equation in the world. Not many people understand it.
- Lucky you as you don't need it in this website.
- Your imagination is an important part of learning from this website. Using your imagination makes you think and that's one of the ways you learn.
- Do you keep your books and toys tidy ?
- How many children do?
- Keeping track of your study material is important for learning.
- You will meet Captain Kirk of the Starship Enterprise who will help you keep a diary or log.
- This will keep track of your learning and activities which will be found in green text as you travel around the website.
- Not too many as you can think of more to help your learning.
- The chapters in this website start with tools of the trade - some of the words needed to help you take in what you see and read..
- The next chapter is about very large numbers such as the stars in the sky at night.
Chapter 3 introduces the universe where all the stars are. The following chapter looks at the planets which go round the Sun.
We go on a trip to Mars in the final chapter.
Space helmets on and off we go!
