If you are training to teach, or are already teaching in a primary school, you need this book. Your one stop place for everything you need to teach children, written in a clear and concise way…this is an invaluable resource you will use often - Review from Amazon
Product Description
Written for classroom teachers and those in training, this book has been designed to support and extend teachers' and students' own knowledge and understanding of science, and should be of particular use to non-specialists.
Throughout the book every effort has been made to interpret the ideas and concepts of science in user-friendly language, using everyday activities as illustrations. The book is divided into three sections:
- life and living processes
- materials and their properties
- physical processes.
Key ideas are suggested for each section and then expanded to include important related science concepts. The book provides comprehensive knowledge for science at Key Stages 1 and 2, and sets the scene for teaching and learning at Key Stage 3.

This book is excellent for brushing up on your science knowledge and for learning new things. I used it when I did my PGCE and have referred to it during my first year.
It gives a detailed background to the science you will be teaching primary pupils and every section is split into KS1 and KS2 knowledge - useful so that you don't overcomplicate things for KS1 children.
