Complete guide to teaching science at primary level. - By: , 14 Apr 2004
Wynne Harlen has done a great job with this book.

It is a comprehensive guide to teaching science in terms of;
teaching & learning styles,
assessment methods,
use of resources & ICT to help childrens' learning,
how best to use practicals (SC1) in science lessons,
helping children to question & think scientificallly for themselves,
good cross curricular links.

I am a primary science specialist PGCE student at the moment, & was given a long list of course text books for science & didn't have a clue as to which one to choose.
Take it from me, choose this one, as my copy is well thumbed after only 6 months of my PGCE course.

A clearly laid out book, relevant to todays schools - By: manse@mag136.freeserve.co.uk, 13 Oct 2001
I was pleasantly surprised when I opened this book to find, not page upon page of tiny text, but a wealth of clearly laid out information concerning everything relevant to todays teaching of science in Primary Schools - the section on ICT surpassed everything I had read so far, focusing on realistic opportunites for ICT involvement. I have to recommend this book as an easy & worthwhile read to anyone who is looking for a book on Science in Primary Schools
