Students’ Books
Scientifica aims to provide just the right proportion of ‘reading’
versus ‘doing’. Each lesson can commence with a really quick
starter activity. There is enough text on each page for
students to develop their literacy skills, but each lesson spread
also contains an optional activity or two to access the real
experience of Science. Ideas and Evidence articles are
presented in a more magazine style to make learning fun.

Teacher’s Books
This series is supported by Teacher’s Books, which provide
guidance for lesson preparation.

One Teacher Resource Pack per year containing a wealth of
photocopiable and editorial resources for higher and lower

encourage the development of literacy and thinking skills.
