Understanding Light, Sound and Forces: Brilliant Support Activities

The Brilliant Support Activities series contains reproducible activities for use with slower learners or pupils with various learning difficulties operating at the lower levels of understanding at Key Stage 1 and Key Stage 2. The activities in the books follow the areas of science outlined in the Programmes of Study of the 2014 Science National Curriculum for years 1-3 and selected topics of years 4 and 5. The books introduce one concept per sheet, using simple language and clear, black line illustrations making them easy to read and understand. Understanding Light, Sound and Forces contains ?? reproducible sheets to help pupils understand some aspects of 'Everyday Physics'. The activities included in the book will help to develop the essential scientific enquiry skills as outlined in the National Curriculum (Working Scientifically), namely those of Observation, Predicting, Recording and Drawing Conclusions. The worksheets focus on forces and motion, electricity, light and sound, as well as on the Sun and Moon and their relationship to Earth.
