The student book is structured to match the sequence of the QCA Scheme of Work Units, and the National Framework for Science Guidelines. This text covers Levels 3-6. Each lesson can commence with a really quick starter activity. The teacher support materials, of course provide hundreds more! "Scientifica" aims to provide just the right proportion of 'reading' versus 'doing'. There is enough text on each page for students to develop their literacy skills, but each lesson spread also contains an optional activity or two to access the real experience of Science. Ideas and Evidence articles are presented in each text in a more magazine style.
