Make Your Own Halloween Mask

FORGOTTEN ISLAND AN UNFORGETTABLE ADVENTURE

Philippine Mythology • LEGENDS THAT NEVER GROW OLD

The science of spooky fun! • Halloween is full of things that make us smile, shriek and say, “Let’s do that again!” From dressing up and telling spooky stories to playing games with friends, Halloween gives us a chance to step out of our everyday world and have some fun. But why does a scary story make your heart race? Why is dressing up so much fun? And why do we laugh when our friends scream?

BIG THINKER • Great ideas often begin with a simple question. What if? Why not? Could we…? Now it’s your turn to think like a BIG THINKER!

Goes Mobile! • Your favourite educational magazine is now available on mobile.

Jobs in Games • Imagine a racing game where the fastest car always wins. At first that sounds fair, but what if one car is so powerful that nobody chooses anything else?

Geophysics: EARTH’S HIDDEN SUPERPOWERS • Have you ever wondered how scientists can “see” inside the Earth without digging thousands of meters down? Or how they can predict earthquakes, map volcanoes, and even find hidden treasure beneath the ground? That’s all thanks to geophysics – the study of Earth using physics!

Future Football Stars • What would it feel like to pull on your country’s shirt, walk onto a football field and hear the crowd cheer before the first whistle blows?

THE AGE OF Flight and Communication • For thousands of years, people could only communicate as fast as a horse, a ship or a person could carry a message. Travelling long distances could take weeks or even months. Then, during the 19th and 20th centuries, a remarkable series of inventions began to shrink our enormous world.

The Discovery Revolution • The modern world brought more than faster ways to travel and communicate. Scientists also began making incredible discoveries about what makes us alive, how diseases work and what lies beyond Earth.

Inventing the Future • Humans have always invented things to solve problems, make life easier and explore new possibilities. From the first simple tools to aeroplanes, antibiotics and spacecraft, every invention began with an idea.
