Science KS1

"Curriculum Bank" is a practical activity-based series which can be used as a planning tool to help devise a comprehensive scheme of work, and as an accessible bank of ideas.

The lesson plans target specific learning objectives and collectively provide a progressive coverage of the programmes of study.

Photocopiable worksheets support many of the activities and save valuable teacher time.

Guidance for differentiation and formative assessment is incorporated throughout, with specific assessment lessons for summative purposes also included.

IT applications and other cross-curricular links are highlighted, as are ideas for display. The practical activities in this book enable children to develop their scientific knowledge, understanding and skills through focused exploration and investigation.

It also includes a number of open-ended investigations which give children the opportunity to practise their developing science skills.
