Publisher's Synopsis
The Science 5-14 series was written as an exact match to the science component of the Environmental Studies 5-14 Guidelines. The guidelines have recently been revised, so this is the first and only course written from scratch to match the latest set.
This series of 3 books aims to bring about greater coherence between primary and secondary science, by providing a course which spans the primary-secondary boundary, giving much needed continuity and progression between P7 and S1.
Each book covers the three Attainment Outcomes (Living Things and the Processes of Life, Earth in Space, and Energy and Forces), with 20 double page spreads for each AO. Key features include
Focused spreads on developing informed attitudes
Focused spreads aimed at developing investigative skills
Key ideas, which provide a summary of the important concepts in each spread
Wordbanks which provides concise definition of the key words used in each spread
Questions to test knowledge and understanding
