Air and sound (exploration science)

Exploration Science provides the non-specialist primary teacher with a structured approach to physical science. Each of the five books deals with a specific topic.

Experiments are related to inventions and to industrial and domestic equipment within the experience of children. This relationship between experiment and practical application provides an understanding of the world and an awareness of the importance of hypothesising and experimenting.

Structured questions in the text guide children toward conclusions and assist the non-specialist teacher to develop the work thoroughly.
