Let's do Integrated Science is a learner-centred series for Grades
1-7 with a step-by-step approach that ensures full syllabus
coverage. Written by experts at this level, activities engage
learners in their own learning process, practically, and focus on
learning through doing.
Chemistry is a conceptual subject and, in order to explain many of
the concepts, teachers use models to describe the microscopic world
and relate it to the macroscopic properties of matter. This can
lead to problems, as a student's every-day experiences of the world
and use of language can contradict the ideas put forward in
chemical science. These titles have been designed to help tackle
this issue of misconceptions. Part 1 deals with the theory, by
including information on some of the key alternative conceptions
that have been uncovered by research; ideas about a variety of
teaching approaches that may prevent students acquiring some common
alternative conceptions; and general ideas for assisting students
with the development of appropriate scientific conceptions. Part 2
provides strategies for dealing with some of the misconceptions
that students have, by including ready to use classroom resources
including copies of probes that can be used to identify ideas held
by students; some specific exercises aimed at challenging some of
the alternative ideas; and classroom activities that will help
students to construct the chemical concepts required by the
curriculum. Used together, these two books will provide a good
theoretical underpinning of the fundamentals of chemistry. Trialled
in schools throughout the UK, they are suitable for teaching ages
11-18.

"Roger McGough's witty text offers many weird and wonderful
explanations ... Chris Riddell's artwork makes the whole an
imaginative feast" - Bookseller Runner-up for the English
Association 4-11 Award for the Best Children's Picture Book.
Nominated for the Kate Greenaway Medal. From the minds of the
former Children's Laureate Chris Ridell, and award-winning fellow
of the Royal Society of Literature Roger McGough, comes a
fun-filled book about how things work. Have you ever wondered how a
toaster works? Or a fridge-freezer, or a washing-up machine? In
this fun-filled book of how things work, Dudley, the techno-wizard
dog, provides the answers. Roger McGough's delightfully ingenious
text and Chris Riddell's striking illustrations take children from
the furthest realms of fantasy into the fascinating world of
technology to discover the workings of familiar machines, making it
an exciting book which will delight again and again. At first, it
describes how a child thinks things work... (gnomes in the toaster)
and then Dudley tells you how the various household appliances
really work. Includes all the appliances a curious child would be
interested in: the dishwasher, the fridge-freezer and more. A
funny, imaginative 'how things work' book for ages 4-7.

universe, this book will take you on a journey that is
out-of-this-world!
