Our world is filled with amazing technology, but most people take it for granted. This set introduces readers to some of the most pivotal inventions and technological marvels in history, from the cars that move us from place to place to the massive bridges they travel over, and from the tiniest computer microchip to the tallest skyscraper. Readers will experience the man-made wonders of our world through captivating photographs that show the construction of everyday engineering masterpieces, ensuring that they'll never look at an airplane in the sky or a ship in the water quite the same way again. Each book concludes with step-by-step project instructions that show readers how to build their own engineering masterpieces on a smaller scale. Features include: Topics chosen for appeal as well as importance to elementary science curriculum and STEM interests. Opportunities for examining informational text elements, an important facet of the Common Core English / Language Arts Standards. Numerous fact boxes to supplement information. Graphic organizers demonstrate organizational skills and enhance the narratives.
