Teaching Science: Foundation to Senior phase

Teaching Science: Foundation to Senior Phase connects theory to practice through in-depth scientific investigations. Part 1 focuses on the theoretical knowledge of teaching natural sciences from Foundation Phase through to the Intermediate and Senior Phases, with an array of activities for pre-service teachers to practise. Part 2 includes five experiments: each covers multiple learning areas, is adjustable for older and younger learners, and clearly links back to the theory in Part 1.
