Getting Science: The Teacher's Guide to Exciting and Painless Primary School Science

Author: Brian Clegg
Publisher: Routledge

Science is rightly a fundamental part of primary school education, but
that doesn't make it easy to teach - especially for teachers without a
science background. This straight talking book from an experienced
science writer and communicator looks at how to make the most of it
and give primary school children a good grounding in the topic.

Getting Science sets out to engage the sense of wonder. The science in
this book is not for the children, but for the adults who have to
explain it. Starting with a whirlwind tour of the great milestones of
modern science, Getting Science goes on to take each of the main
curriculum topics and give it a new twist. It provides the information
needed to understand the key topics better and be able to put them
across with enthusiasm and energy.

This book will help teachers to get children excited by science, to
understand science rather than just answer questions. Getting Science
makes science fun, approachable and comprehensible to those who just
don't get it.
