Linked to the Pearson Edexcel 11-16 Science Learning Pathway and GCSE specifications, this Lab Book will help to introduce and embed the skills and terminology that are needed for students to succeed in the core practical components of their Edexcel GCSE (9-1) Science course. It includes 12 fun, inspiring KS3 practicals, fully reviewed for safety by CLEAPSS, along with all the instructions students will need to perform these practicals. Writing frames are provided for students to record their results and reflect on their work. Guidance helps students build confidence in key skills such as experimental design, recording and presentation of results, and evaluation of methods and data. A selection of questions helps Key Stage 3 students prepare for GCSE-style assessment, and a Practical Skills Checklist allows students to track the skills they have developed. Everything students need for the 12 key practicals is included in one Lab Book, eliminating the need for additional photocopying or printing off other pieces of paper (such as graphs). Comprehensive teacher and technician notes are also provided to help with delivery.
