Synopsis

Praise for According to Phil:

“The writer must have an education background because good practices are embedded in the text. For example, the reader is asked to think about what he knows about robots before he reads, to compare and contrast robots and humans using a graphic organizer, and to "interview" a robot, to name a few of the reader–centered activities in the book. These techniques make the book very appropriate to support both inquiry and good reading practices…The story is full of colorful pictures, drawings, and charts.”

- National Science Teachers’ Association

 

We love robots, right? But what do we know about them, really?

Meet Phil Bot. He's cool, he's shiny, and he's friendly. Best of all, he's specially programmed to help young thinkers (and not-so-young ones) learn fascinating facts about robots!

Phil invites readers to become robot aficionados, in their own right. This children's book is an insightful introduction to the world of robots!

It includes:

• an exploration of what robots are, how they work, and what they can do
• fun facts about robots
• highlights from their high-tech history
• wild, wonderful worksheets

Suitable for thinkers aged 8-12 (and for parents and teachers who've also wondered about robots).

A propos du livre

À propos de l?auteur

Amy is living proof that you can do something good with a philosophy degree (she actually has two). A self-proclaimed word nerd and author, she's tickled pink to be able to combine her love of ideas with more than 10 years as an educator and curriculum developer. Amy firmly believes that great philosophers come in all sizes, and is committed to helping people see the power of their own ideas. When she isn't busy writing and philosophizing, she enjoys world travel, extreme baking and pondering the mysteries of the universe with her own little philosopher.
