This Foundation Workbook is designed to support the development of key literacy and numeracy skills of students in the 1-3 grade range, as well as building confidence in answering open response questions. The amount of scaffolded support decreases throughout the workbook to encourage independent learning.- Summarises all the Foundation content to be learned for each topic- Provides plenty of practice questions- Builds confidence by showing how to answer questions or work through calculations- Helps students to improve their answers by focusing on use of key scientific vocabulary, how to link key concepts, and work with graphsEach topic opens with a bulleted summary of the key ideas, reminding students of the key scientific vocabulary and equations they should be able to recall. The questions begin with confidence-building, low demand questions (multiple choice, matching, sentence completion or closed short answer) leading to more open questions including calculations as part of structured questions. The questions include applying and analysing as well as recall, for example bringing in skills used in analysing results from practical work.Frequent support notes provide hints and tips on key vocabulary, how to answer open response questions (for example by writing causal explanations), strategies for decoding questions (for example by identifying key words in the question) and how to interpret information from tables and graphs.‘Show me’ writing frames demonstrate how to build longer answers, how to work with equations in science and how to convert units. In later pages the level of scaffolding is gradually reduced by removing the guided support so that students are supported in becoming independent learners throughout their GCSE course.

This book provides comprehensive coverage of the new Edexcel International GCSE (9-1) specification with progression, international relevance and support at its core. It is designed to supply students with the best preparation possible for the examination:

·  Integrated exam practice throughout, with differentiated revision exercises, exam practice and learning summary sections.

·  Provides free access to an ActiveBook, a digital version of the Student Book, which can be accessed online, anytime, anywhere supporting learning beyond the classroom.

·  Transferable skills, needed for progression into higher education and employment, are signposted allowing students to understand, and engage with, the skills they’re gaining.

·  Pearson progression tools allows quick and easy formative assessment of student progress, linked to guidance on how to personalise learning solutions.

·  Reviewed by a language specialist to ensure the book is written in a clear and accessible style for students whose first language may not be English.

·  Glossary of key terminology, along with full answers included on the ActiveBook.

·  Further teacher support materials, including lesson plans, are provided online.

Exploring Science Pupils' Books

Pupils' Books provide full coverage of the Key Stage 3 Science Curriculum and are each divided into twelve units that follow the Units in the QCA Scheme of work.

Pupils' Book 9 contains eighteen units – twelve units that cover the QCA Scheme of Work, plus three additional revision units and three post-SATs project units. 

Questions in the Pupils' Books get increasingly harder and open-ended and the length of the text between questions is increased to help improve literacy levels.  ‘Focus on' pages in each unit provide additional extension and enrichment material at the Could know level.

 

As part of our commitment to help you manage the transition between Key Stage 2 and 3, we have extended the course down into Years 5 and 6. Exploring Science 5 and 6 includes all the key features of the Key Stage 3 scheme.

Matches the QCA Scheme of Work for upper Key Stage 2. Differentiated at three levels. Provides animations and pupils' activities on the interactive CD-Rom (for use on the school network or with an electronic whiteboard). Includes revision material for the Year 6 SATs, plus FREE SATs-style questions are provided on the companion website, www.exploringscience.co.uk. Includes investigation pages. Provides a post-SATs project Unit to help the transition to Year 7.

Understanding Science is a series of topic-based study books for children in Key Stage 2, providing comprehensive coverage of key subject areas. Each topic contains a concise summary of the information required by the National Curriculum, together with structured practice. Each book is a stand-alone resource, so children can either work through them in order or focus on individual aspects of the subject. Together, the six books support the whole of the Key Stage 2 science curriculum, including scientific investigation, providing a solid foundation for success in science. Light, Sound & Space meets the National Curriculum requirements for Key Stage 2 science, and covers the following areas: light and sound travel, reflection, shadows, vibration, noise, pitch, volume, the Earth, Sun, Moon and solar system. This book explains the importance of light and sound and the ways in which they can be changed.Key features of Understanding Science include: an 'Explanation' to introduce each topic; activities to consolidate and revise knowledge and skills; thought-provoking facts to foster a love of learning beyond the National Curriculum; a 'Scientific investigation' table to identify and encourage scientific questioning opportunities across the series; a combined 'Index and glossary' to define key terms introduced in the text.

Closely matched to the National Curriculum, the Schofield & Sims Revision Guides help children to revise what they have learnt at school, in preparation for the end of key stage tests. Clearly presented examples and colourful illustrations help bring revision to life, while targeted practice questions highlight any gaps in understanding.The Key Stage 1 Science Revision Guide covers the statutory requirements for Key Stage 1 science, including: living things and their habitats, plants, animals (including humans), seasonal changes, everyday materials and working scientifically. The accessible format and index enable children either to work through the topics in order, or to focus on a particular subject area. This 52-page book includes: helpful Tips for tests and advice on how to revise effectively; Remember boxes to summarise key information; regular Test yourself questions and answers to check recall of information; a Glossary to encourage the correct spelling and use of subject vocabulary. Six Schofield & Sims Revision Guides are available in total, providing structured practice in maths, English and science at Key Stages 1 and 2.Accompanying Practice Papers reflect the appearance and content of the national tests, offering further opportunity for revision and test preparation.
