The books also include a page of teacher’s notes, providing advice and suggestions on how to make the most of each title. • Simple stories show how quarrels can be resolved

“Lizzie’s heart quickened as she heard rasping breathing ahead. A face loomed

from the shadows. The Phantom! Snarling, he lunged. His black cloak fluttered as he flew at her. He slammed into her and she staggered backward. As she hit the ground,

Lizzie woke with a gasp.”

“Oranges”Gary Soto grew up in the 1960s in the sunny US state

of California, where lots of oranges are grown. In this poem, the oranges and their warm, vivid colour help Soto to express his feelings of happiness.

The first time I walkedWith a girl, I was twelve,Cold, and weighted downWith two oranges in my jacket.December. Frost crackingBeneath my steps, my breathBefore me, then gone,As I walked towardHer house, the one whosePorch light burned yellowNight and day, in any weather.A dog barked at me, untilShe came out pullingAt her gloves, face brightWith rouge. I smiled,Touched her shoulder, and ledHer down the street, acrossA used car lot and a lineOf newly planted trees,Until we were breathingBefore a drugstore. WeEntered, the tiny bellBringing a salesladyDown a narrow aisle of goods.I turned to the candiesTiered like bleachersAnd asked what she wanted -Light in her eyes, a smileStarting at the corners

Of her mouth. I fingeredA nickle in my pocket,And when she lifted a chocolateThat cost a dime,I didn’t say anything.I took the nickle fromMy pocket, then an orange,And set them quietly onThe counter. When I looked up,The lady’s eyes met mine,And held them, knowingVery well what it was allAbout.

Outside,A few cars hissing past,Fog hanging like oldCoats between the trees.I took my girl’s handIn mine for two blocks,Then released it to letHer unwrap the chocolate.I peeled my orangeThat was so bright againstThe gray of DecemberThat, from some distance,Someone might have thoughtI was making a fire in my hands.

Gary Soto’s parents were working-class Mexican Americans. He worked in the fields when he was young to raise some extra money for the family. When Soto was at high school, he became motivated to work hard at his studies. He went on to gain a degree and then study poetry. As well as teaching at universities in the USA, Soto has volunteered as a teacher for Spanish speakers who want to learn English.

The strings on

this harp are

vibrating to

make a sound.

Fast and slowThings that make sound vibrate. They move up

and down or backwards and forwards, again

and again. When things vibrate, they make the

air around them vibrate, too. When these air

vibrations reach our ears, our ears hear them

as sounds.

The pitch of a sound

depends on how quickly something vibrates. When the string on a guitar vibrates very quickly,

it plays a high note. When the string on a

guitar vibrates slowly,

it plays a low note.

1 Hold one end of the

ruler on the table so

that a short end of it

hangs over the edge.

2 Hold the ruler

Poets of World War I

Actual text size

World War I was one of the bloodiest conflicts in modern history – and yet it produced some of the best poetry of the 20th century. Many people’s first encounter with poetry is through writers like Wilfred Owen and Siegfried Sassoon, and the passion and power they find in it makes a very deep impact. This collective biography of poets like Owen, Sassoon, Brooke, Graves, Rosenberg, Brittain, Sorley, and Seeger, along with potted biographies of many other war poets, gives the background of the poets’ experiences to explain how the war created so much important poetry – and why we keep coming back to this work a hundred years later.

TAKING ACTIONMost schools in the South remained segregated after Brown v. Board of

Education because forcing change through legal cases was slow. From

the mid-1950s onwards, more and more civil rights protestors took direct

action to try to speed up change. Direct action is when people carry out

public acts that disrupt or break the law in order to raise awareness of an

issue. Rosa Parks refusing to give up her seat to a white woman on a public

bus in Montgomery, Alabama, in 1955 was an early example. The NAACP

planned this action, and used Rosa’s arrest to spark a boycott of city

buses. After 13 months of lost business and bad publicity, the state made

segregation illegal on its buses.

Other famous examples of taking action for civil rights in the 1950s include

the Little Rock Nine. Nine black children, including Melba Pattillo, tried to

attend a white-only school in 1957. The resulting violence and protests

from people against segregation led to the US government stepping in to

force the governor of Arkansas, Orval Faubus, to desegregate its schools.

Watch an interview with Governor Faubus in which he explains why he

prevented the Little Rock Nine going to school: www.hrc.utexas.edu/

Fifteen-year-old Elizabeth Eckford (in sunglasses) walks past angry white students during the Little Rock Nine action.

ORVAL FAUBUS1910–1994

BORN: Combs, Arkansas

ROLE: Governor of Arkansas from 1954 to 1967. In 1957, he ordered the National Guard to stop black children going to Little Rock High School to keep law and order. US President Dwight D. Eisenhower ordered government troops in to protect the Little Rock Nine so they could attend school.

Did You Know?Faubus ended segregation in Arkansas on state public transport when first elected governor.

WHO IN HISTORY

DANGERIt is difficult to imagine now how strongly some white people felt about civil

rights campaigners in the 1950s. Many were members of groups such as

the Ku Klux Klan (KKK). The KKK was a terrorist organization whose actions

included firebombing homes and churches, and lynching. Lynching

involved a mob seizing, beating, and usually violently killing people. In

1957, for example, the KKK offered a $10,000 reward to anyone who killed

one of the Little Rock Nine.

HISTORY DETECTIVES: sourcesDiaries, interviews, autobiographies, and photos are primary sources, or records of events created at the time under study. Secondary sources are interpretations and analyses of primary sources. They are usually created by people who weren’t there at the time. Examples include books, biographies, and films. Secondary sources can provide good overviews to direct research, but a range of primary sources can add details and bring the past to life.

In 1687, Newton published one of the most important books in the history of science. It was called Philosophiæ Naturalis Principia Mathematica. In this book, Newton wrote about his work on gravity. He also wrote about his three laws of motion. These laws describe how different forces make objects move, change direction, or stop.

!"#$%!&'()*+'$(,-#

An object will carry on moving unless something stops it or changes its direction and a stationary object will stay still unless something makes it move. For example, a football will not move unless someone kicks it.

!"#$%!&'('".%!/(,-#

Force is equal to the mass of an object multiplied by its acceleration. This calculation allows us to work out the answers to lots of questions, including how much force is needed to push an aircraft of a certain weight through the air at a certain speed.

!"#$%!&'($0*+/(,-#

For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. For example, if a girl on a scooter pushes her foot backwards, the scooter will move forwards.

Newton’s famous book is

ÑComputer programs use a set of instructions

called an algorithm to complete a task, just as

you would follow the steps in a recipe to bake a cake or make cookies

Computers rarely do things randomly, unless you ask them to. This is because they follow the rules of logical reasoning. Computer programs complete tasks in a logical way, usually by following a special set of instructions called an algorithm.

THE KNOWLEDGEAn algorithm is a step-by-step list of directions that need to be followed to solve a problem. The directions must be simple enough for the com-puter to complete the task quickly, without confusion.

Real world algorithmsAlgorithms aren’t just used by computers. Any set of instructions with logical steps to follow can be considered an algorithm. If you build a model house out of plastic bricks by following step-by-step instructions, you’re using an algorithm.

Computers rely on a huge number of algorithms to operate. Some of these are built into the computer, while others are user defined. This means the user (for example, yourself) tells it what to do.

Many tasksEven fairly simple computer tasks, such as checking for emails, are actually a sequence of smaller algorithms completed one after each other. For example, to get an email, your computer has to send a request to another computer (known as a server) over the Internet. The server computer then runs an algorithm to check if you have new messages. If you do, another algorithm sends the email to your computer, which uses another algorithm to display it on screen.

You click the “get email” button on your email software

Email software connects to the Internet and sends request to email server to get new mail

Email server runs program to check for new mail

Email server finds new mail and sends it to you computer
