Getting the Buggers into Science

A practical guide for motivating students in the science classroom. Following the winning formula of 'Getting the Buggers to Behave', this practical guide provides teachers with a range of practical strategies that can be used to motivate pupils of all ages. Christine Farmery explores the four main aspects of science study - investigations, biology, chemistry and physics - and then provides plenty of ideas for getting pupils engaged in their science lessons. She demonstrates how closely science relates to other National Curriculum subjects and makes suggestions for a range of themed events that the whole school can enjoy - from a Victorian washday to hosting a science week!
