I’m really pleased to announce that my Science Fix book is now available to buy! This book is the distilled knowledge of 17 years of delivering Initial Teacher Education in several primary SCITTs, hundreds of Primary Science CPD sessions I have delivered as well as the various schemes I have written such as Switched on Science and Reach Out CPD.
The book is aimed at both experienced and new primary teachers who would like to boost their understanding of science teaching, as well as student teachers who are just embarking on their teaching journey and who would like something to supplement their science SKU lectures.
In this book I will
- Guide you through all areas of the primary science curriculum.
- Outline the subject knowledge you need for each area, enabling you to teach with confidence.
- Include practical advice for teaching and guidance on how to plan and deliver sequences of engaging science lessons.
- Outline activities for teaching that promote scientific thinking and help children to work as scientists.
- Identify common misconceptions, allowing you to anticipate them in planning.
- Ask what working scientifically is and, importantly, what it is not.
If you’d like a preview, you can access one on the Sage website.
You can buy Science Fix in all good online bookstores as paperback or Kindle versions. For example:
Amazon UK/ Amazon US / Amazon Australia / Amazon Canada / Sage / WH Smith / Blackwells
If you’ve bought the book, there’s bonus content available here.
I do hope you like the book. Please spread the word to your science leads and course lecturers and mentors.
