Resources for Educators and Students

STUDENT'S BOOK

The Student’s Book engages learners through relevant examples and provide a sense of immersion through videos, animations, and interactives to better their understanding in Science. Extensive support and scaffolding are provided to relate concepts across topics and foster a deeper understanding of concepts.

Comes with thought-provoking questions to bridge the gap between their current knowledge or assumptions, and the concepts.

Presents practical experiments to test the concepts and verify that these concepts are true. This practical work reinforces the concepts learned by making them concrete and easy to grasp in real life.

Enrichment feature provides interesting nuggets of information that help learners connect with real-life examples and deepen understanding.

THEORY WORKBOOK

The Theory Workbook provides meaningful reinforcement of concepts covered in the Student’s Book. Each chapter contains a journaling feature to encourage self-reflection, exam-style questions to build exam readiness and comes with formative questions to assess topical understanding.

Formative questions are scaffolded for subject literacy, starting from multiple-choice questions, word jumbles and crosswords, and progressing to short-answer and structured questions.

PRACTICAL WORKBOOK

The Workbook is designed to complement the Student’s Book and help learners develop necessary investigative and experimental skills. It builds on subject literacy and exam-readiness in learners through activities, experimental and practical work.

Laboratory-based practical that supplements the student’s book through observations or manipulations of real-life objects or materials.

Investigations come with probing questions that test students’ understanding of theory and experimental design.

Comes with tips on good laboratory practice and safety to help students to develop good laboratory habits.
