Book 9: Habitats
ISBN: 978-0-6481832-8-0

In this book Suzie the Scientist helps us learn about habitats – the area where plants and animals live. We learn that habitats are places where animals get the things they need to live including food, water and shelter. Suzie also shows us lots of different habitats including oceans, forests, deserts, bushlands and even your own back yard.

This book addresses the learning outcome “Living things live in places where their needs are met” from the Biological Sciences sub-strand of the Australian Curriculum: Science.

Book 10: Melting and Freezing
ISBN: 978-0-6481832-9-7

In this book Suzie the Scientist helps us learn about physical changes and in particular about melting and freezing. We learn that when we heat materials we can cause them to melt; we also learn that when we cool materials we can cause them to freeze. Suzie also teaches us the difference between solids and liquids.

This book addresses the learning outcome “Everyday materials can be physically changed in a variety of ways” from the Chemical Sciences sub-strand of the Australian Curriculum: Science.

Book 11: Changing Seasons
ISBN: 978-0-6481833-0-3

In this book Suzie the Scientist helps us learn about the changing seasons. We explore how seasons have observable changes. Suzie helps us understand that different parts of the world have different seasons throughout the year.

This book addresses the learning outcome “Observable changes occur in the sky and landscape” from the Earth and Space Sciences sub-strand of the Australian Curriculum: Science.

Book 12: Light
ISBN: 978-0-6481833-1-0

In this book Suzie the Scientist helps us learn about light and how it enables us to see things. We identify the Sun as the major source of light on Earth and how light from the Sun reflects off objects to allow us to see them. Suzie also shows us different sources of light and how they can be used in our daily lives.

This book addresses the learning outcome “Light and sound are produced by a range of sources and can be sensed” from the Physical Sciences sub-strand of the Australian Curriculum: Science.

Book 13: Insects and Other Animals
ISBN: 978-0-6481833-2-7

In this book Suzie the Scientist helps us learn about insects and other animals. We explore some of the external features of insects, birds, fishes and mammals. Suzie also helps us work out the difference between insects and other types of animals.

This book addresses the learning outcome “Living things have a variety of external features” from the Biological Sciences sub-strand of the Australian Curriculum: Science.

Book 14: Physical Changes
ISBN: 978-0-6481833-3-4

In this book Suzie the Scientist helps us learn about physical changes. We learn that when materials are cut or squashed to change their size and shape a physical change has occurred. Suzie also shows us that melting and dissolving materials are other example of physical changes.

This book addresses the learning outcome “Everyday materials can be physically changed in a variety of ways” from the Chemical Sciences sub-strand of the Australian Curriculum: Science.

Book 15: Environments
ISBN: 978-0-6481833-4-1

In this book Suzie the scientist helps us learn about environments. We explore natural environments, constructed environments and managed environments. Suzie helps us understand the difference between each of these types of environments.

Book 16: Good Vibrations
ISBN: 978-0-6481833-5-8

In this book Suzie the Scientist helps us learn that sound is produced by a range of sources. With Suzie, we explore different types of musical instruments and how they make sound through vibrations.

This book addresses the learning outcome “Light and sound are produced by a range of sources and can be sensed” from the Physical Sciences sub-strand of the Australian Curriculum: Science.
