This is a companion to the book for course leaders, Making Progress in Primary Science, 2nd edition. It follows exactly the same module structure and can be used by participants during their course and as a useful resource afterwards. It is also designed to be used by teachers and student teachers independently of a set course. Throughout the book, the focus is on the learning of science as an investigative process through which pupils develop an understanding of ideas. This is supported by modules on different aspects of teaching and learning in science, including: Building on children's own ideas; How to ask and answer questions; Managing practical work in the classroom; Science for very young children; Effective assessment, self-assessment and feedback; Cross-curricular links; ICT and science; Science outside the classroom
