Interactive Investigations Early Years stimulates and challenges your pupils to think like scientists. Fully matched to the QCA Scheme of Work, this brilliant teaching resource uses photos, illustrations and animations to pose a question for study and makes it easy to introduce, prepare for and write up science investigations. Each CD-ROM consists of three parts: * Introduction: sets the scene for an investigation as well as stimulating discussion about the topic. * Interactive writing frame: two levels of entry allow for differentiation. Pupils are guided through the writing frame before they conduct their investigation. Once they have finished their investigation and collected their results they enter them and their conclusions. The software brings everything together on screen and pupils have the option to also print out their complete write up of their investigation. * Plenary: consolidates pupils' learning and ensures everyone has understood the key point of the investigation.
