Description: "Full of suggestions for exciting practical work to engage learners or students, this book addresses and explains the science behind the experiments, and emphasises the need to engage the learner through minds-on activities. It shows you where to make links to the national curricula in England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. It covers the range of school sciences: chemistry, biology, earth science and physics. The detailed subject knowledge helps you grasp key concepts, and there are lots of useful diagrams to illustrate important points." "These practical activities will provide you with ways to ensure your students respond enthusiastically to science, and the book will help you develop your subject knowledge and ensure you meet your Qualified Teacher Status (QTS) standards. Perfect reading for Secondary Science PGCE students, as well as those on the Graduate Teacher Programme (GTP), this book is also ideal for non-specialists who are looking for support as they get to grips with the sciences."--BOOK JACKET.
