Science Focus: Looking Into Science 3
This student book accompanies the nine teaching units which make up Science Focus: The Salters’ Approach for students in Year Nine. Looking into Science 3 is a full colour book which can be used to support, enrich or extend lessons.
Content is arranged as a succession of double-page spreads, each of which is closely linked to a particular activity or lesson in Teacher’s Guide 3. The lesson plans and teaching notes in the Teacher’s Guide give references to the relevant pages of the student books, and these references are shown again with the teaching notes for each activity.
Looking into Science 3 provides information, interactive text and guidelines for a variety of practical and text-related activities. The book can be used to stimulate interest in a new topic, perhaps by asking students to read a spread as homework, or as a reference source during lessons. Some spreads may be used as a ‘starting point’ for discussions, debates or role-play exercises.
The nine teaching units covered in Looking into Science 3 are:
*Green Machine: Photosynthesis and food chains.
*Safe as Houses: Forces and structures.
*Drinks: Pure water, fizzy drinks and fermentation.
*Seeing Stars: Earth, the planets and stars.
*Food: An introduction to nutrients and digestion.
*Safe Journey: Ideas about speed, time and distance.
*Growing Up: Growing and maturing from babies to adults.
*Metals: Properties, uses and protection of some metals.
*Current Thinking: More about circuits.
*World Watch: Science and the environment.
