The Really Useful Science Book: A Framework of Knowledge for Primary Teachers: The Really Useful
Autor Steve Farrow, Amy Strachanen Limba Engleză Paperback – 10 aug 2017
The book is divided into three sections: Biology, Chemistry and Physics. Each section integrates key scientific ideas and facts with innovative teaching methods and activity suggestions, and user-friendly language and illustrations help to explain key scientific concepts. With links to global learning, discussion of common misconceptions, and ideas for cross-curricular opportunities, each chapter connects knowledge to practice and informs creative and inspiring teaching.
The Really Useful Science Book is an invaluable reference resource for all classroom teachers who wish to develop the confidence to teach enquiry-based practical science with relevance to pupils and their global community.

Recenzii
The structure of this book is great: sectioned into biology, chemistry and physics, it is easy to navigate. . .and key ideas - for example, key idea 2.6 lists: energy transfer, food chains and webs, and the food cycle - demonstrate a natural link between topics, useful for planning for progression.
At the end of each section, the National Curriculum programme of study guides display progression through year groups, offering an ‘at a glance’ view of what pupils’ prior knowledge should be and what they are aiming towards. The teaching idea boxes reveal great ideas to use as ‘awe and wonder’ activities and hooks, and the concept confusion boxes are really easy to use; allowing teachers to identify common misconceptions that may occur during the lesson.
I really enjoyed the famous scientist fact-boxes, they are relevant, linking concepts and topic areas to scientists and allowing children to see where theories and ideas originate and that they are developing and changing.
Finally, working scientifically is an excellent feature of the book; for a teacher or trainee teacher, this ensures and reassures us that the children in our class are achieving all the different aspects of working scientifically.
