Synopsis

This collection of engaging and simple to use activities will jumpstart students' understanding of science by taking teaching and learning outdoors and linking it to a specific area of the curriculum.

A wealth of practical activities in the book cover all areas from identifying, classifying and grouping to pattern seeking, making observations and comparative and fair testing.

This cross-curricular approach encourages teachers to develop useful links with other subjects which support and complement the science. With links to a range of online resources and over 30 motivating and engaging science activities, cross-curricular links cover the following areas of the curriculum:

  • Maths, English, Computing, History, Geography, Music, Art, P.E and Design and Technology.

Jumpstart! Science Outdoors is an essential classroom resource that will encourage the personal development of children and is the perfect solution for helping teachers, teaching assistants and students deliver effective and imaginative science lessons.
