KS1 Science through Stories
Lesley Hendy and Rachel Sparks Linfield
Useful, engaging activities
The Science through Stories series has been written in line with the curriculum to help teachers to introduce their KS1 pupils to Science. It does so through a familiar medium – stories. Once read and discussed, each story can be developed through both practical Science and Drama. The work in Science requires only simple equipment; the Drama can be carried out in the classroom.
The aim throughout is to support teachers who lack confidence in teaching Science or Drama, and to develop and assess pupils' conceptual understanding. To provide suitable progression, each pack includes separate material for reception, Year 1 and Year 2 classes and consists of 12 units spread across the full Programme of Study.
Each unit provides:
- A story to set the scene and form a basis for discussion
- A large illustration depicting aspects of the story and for use with the work that follows
- Outlines for Science activities which include equipment lists plus a range of illustrations, hints and tips
- Suggestions for Drama work
- Ideas for cross-curricular links
There are also teacher's notes summarising each unit, providing curriculum references and giving general guidance.
