The "Heinemann Science Scheme" offers an approach to the QCA's
Scheme of Work. Teacher's resource packs provide support with
lesson planning, with each chapter matching the Scheme of Work, and
in-built assessment. The scheme aims to improve on the Scheme of
Work by building in progression and a comprehensive revision
programme to help prepare pupils for their National Tests. It also
aims to make the Scheme of Work accessible to all pupils. The
scheme builds on what students already know, following on from the
Scheme of Work at Key Stages 1 and 2. It takes into account what
pupils already know at the start of Key Stage 3 and builds from
there. The "Heinemann Science Scheme" is also designed to build on
the literacy and numeracy work pupils have done in primary schools.
Covering all GCSE specifications, this tried and tested series has
been fully updated to match the (9-1) GCSE Biology specifications
for first examination in 2018, as well as international
specifications. With a focus on science, concepts develop
naturally, engaging students and enabling them to get a thorough
understanding of Biology.

A wonderful comparative introduction to animals and humans for
children which is written in Charles Kovacs's warm and expressive
style. Charles Kovacs taught in Edinburgh so there is a Scottish
flavour to the animals discussed in the first half of the book,
including seals, red deer and eagles. In the later chapters, he
covers elephants, horses and bears. This is a fascinating and
engaging resource for teachers and home schoolers which is used in
the Steiner-Waldorf curriculum for 9-11 year olds.
Current school mathematics curricula internationally tend to
emphasize problem-solving and have led to the development of
opportunities for children to do maths in a more open, creative
way. This has led to increased interest in "performance-based"
assessment, which involves children in substantial production of
written language to serve as "evidence" of their mathematical
activity and achievement. However, this raises two important
questions. Firstly, does this writing accurately present children's
mathematical activity and ability? Secondly, do maths teachers have
sufficient linguistic awareness to support their students in
developing skills and knowledge necessary for writing effectively
in their subject area? The author of this book takes a critical
perspective on these questions and, through an investigation of
teachers' readings and evaluations of coursework texts, identifies
the crucial issues affecting the accurate assessment of school
mathematics.
Spark scientific curiosity from a young age with this six-level
course through an enquiry-based approach and active learning.

Hey, water! I know you! You're all around. Join a young girl as she
explores her surroundings and sees that water is everywhere. But
water doesn't always look the same, it doesn't always feel the

home, and even inside her own body, water comes to life, and kids
will find excitement and joy in water and its many forms. This book
is conversational in tone and good to read aloud, but full of
scientific facts narrated from a child's perspective. The artwork
is bold and striking, with beautiful design make this attractive to
pick up and handle. There is added backmatter on the water cycle,
water conservation, and more.
