Exploring how creative approaches can be appropriately developed and embedded, key aspects of science teaching are discussed, including: Planning for teaching and learning ; Assessing primary science ; Cross-curricular approaches ; The intelligent application of technology ; Sustainability education ; Outdoor learning. Coverage is supported by illustrative examples, encouraging you to look at your own teaching practice, your local community and environment, your own interests and those of your children to deepen your understanding of what constitutes good science teaching in primary schools.
