In this primary resource, children work scientifically to investigate the effects of various conditions on plant growth. The activities are set in a real-life context, that of a sports company who wish to provide a turf surface suitable for a range of activities. Information is required on suitable grass types and...

This resource produced by ARKive supports the teaching of life-cycles at key stage two. It looks at mammals, amphibians, reptiles and plants and finds similarities between the life cycles of animals and plants within each group, as well as some of the similarities and differences between these groups. There is a...

This manual introduces teachers to the approaches adopted in the Problem Solving with Industry series, devised by the Centre for Science Education. The authors describe problem solving as a composite skill, enabling the development of a wide range of personal...

Nuffield Working with Science was revised in the 1980s to meet the requirements of the Certificate of Pre-Vocational Education (CPVE). In this edition the general course guidance and the specific guidance about the units was brought together into a single Tutors’...
