An Early Start to Science

Written for teachers who are introducing science to pupils between five and eight years of age, this book conforms to the Programmes of Study and Attainment Targets of National Curriculum Science. It presents topics of a scientific nature which are designed to foster children's enjoyment of exploring, observing, manipulating, comparing, organizing, questioning, testing, and looking for patterns. It avoids separating "science" from the rest of the Curriculum, crossing subject-boundaries in the way that children of this age group do naturally.
