Following on from the hardback edition, this paperback is a companion volume to The Ultimate Book of Knowledge, exploring science themes further and tying in neatly with the National Curriculum, Key Stage 2, where children ...'begin to make links between ideas and to explain things using simple models and theories. They apply their knowledge and understanding of scientific ideas to familiar phenomena, everyday things and the human body'.

 

This book is suitable for Key Stage 2. KS2 covers school years 4, 5 and 6, and ages 8-11 years. A key stage is any of the fixed stages into which the national curriculum is divided, each having its own prescribed course of study. At the end of each stage, pupils are required to complete standard assessment tasks.

There are 192 pages in this book. This book was published 2010 by Oxford University Press .
