About this title

Synopsis

This course for Key Stage 3 Science brings together proven approaches to the development of pupil's thinking skills and the requirements of the National Curriculum for Science. Pupils should learn to think about their thinking whilst developing their knowledge and understanding of science within the context of the QCA Scheme of Work, which includes thinking skills. The order in which specific skills are introduced is based on many years' research into pupils' cognitive development.
