This book is part of the "Essentials" series of photocopiable books designed to offer the non-specialist teacher a wide range of open-ended science activities for specified levels of ability. The series provides activities to support any scheme of work being used in the school, either as part of a structured science lesson or as educationally-sounded time-fillers. Each book contains photocopiable activities plus teachers' notes that explain the purpose of each activity; its relevance to the National Curriculum and suggest ideas for follow-up activities. This book looks at water, while other books in the series look at "Air", "Sound" and "Seeds and Seedlings".
"Explains essential facts about energy, including the difference between kinetic and potential energy, different energy sources, and how energy changes and is transferred. Includes experiments"--Provided by publisher.
This series is built around the exploration of key science topics, linked to the child's own experience.

This book looks at the structure and properties of rocks and soil, fertility and plant growth, conservation and minerals and ores.
This book on light and colour is one of a series that combines vital curriculum support with photocopiable material. Linked to the requirements of the National Curriculum and Scottish 5-14, it investigates the properties of light, reflection and shadows, and looks at mirrors, lenses, colours and tints. Designed for children at Key Stage 1 and based on the learning requirements of AT1 scientific investigation, AT3 materials and their properties and AT4 physical processes, the book promotes further investigation of the subject and includes activities that give children opportunities to be scientists in their own right.
This text examines the different types of forces, including pushes and pulls, twists and turns, and how they can create or affect movement. 28 photocopiable sheets offer the teacher ready-made, practical classroom materials, and each worksheet features a suggested extension activity to stimulate discussion and to keep the task open-ended. Activities cover the following areas: balanced and unbalanced forces; friction and resistance; springs and elastic bands; magnetism and gravity. The accompanying teachers' notes provide background information, explain the purpose and possible outcome of each activity, give general advice on classroom organization and safety issues and suggest ideas for possible extension work. The book covers the "Forces and Motion" strand of Physical Processes in the science National Curriculum and tables are included to highlight links with the Scottish 5-14 Guidelines and the Northern Ireland science Curriculum.
This bound set of four Key Stage 1 books are designed for developing practical skills required for AT1 in scientific investigation as well as AT4 in physical processes. Each book includes 28 photocopiable activities and four pages of teacher's notes. This series will provide support for any scheme of work being used in the school, either as part of structured session or as educationally sound time fillers. It provides information on the uses of electricity, including circuits, switches and mechanisms plus the properties and uses of magnetism; the properties of light, reflection and shadows, mirrors, leses and colours and tints; forces and their effects, including gravity and friction, sliding, rolling, falling and bouncing and it investigates the movements of the planets and helps explain day and night, the seasons and eclipses and phases of the moon.

This is a collection of photocopiable activities based on the programme of study for Earth and beyond at Key Stage 2 and covering the sun, earth, and the moon and the change in position of the sun during the day, shadows, how the earth spins on its axis, day and night, the orbit of the earth and the moon, the phases of the moon and the earth's atmosphere. Accompanying teachers' notes give background information and an explanation of each activity. Links with Scotland 5-14 and the Northern Ireland curriculum are also highlighted.
