NEW Mr Star says… “Check-out our NEW products which are labelled with this symbol.”

There are 57 species of butterfly in the UK and over 2,500 types of moth but their survival is being threatened. Seven out of ten butterfly species are in decline. Four of our butterflies and over 60 moths became extinct last century. Butterfly Conservation is the UK charity taking action to save butterflies moths and their habitats. Butterflies are delicate creatures, reacting quickly to change, which makes them valuable indicators of the health of the environment. Declining numbers caused by the deterioration of habitats, pollution and climate change are a warning for all wildlife. Butterflies and moths have fascinating life-cycles that are used in many countries to teach children about the natural world. The transformation from egg to caterpillar to chrysalis is one of the wonders of nature. If you want to find out more about butterflies and moths, or about Butterfly Conservation, then take a look at www.butterfly-conservation.org Our new Learn section of the website includes a range of resources for teachers and pupils linked directly to different areas of the National Curriculum including activity sheets, games and puzzles. Learning and education are vital to ensure future generations care as much as we do about the natural world. Look out for our logo throughout this catalogue against the products we believe will help schools, teachers and their pupils play a part in saving butterflies.

Let’s have fun…Investigating Science

Let’s have fun

Do you want to..... LET’S INVESTIGATE

Make science more FUN? Enable children to experience science through a variety of teaching and learning styles? Engage children in ‘hands on’ practical activities? Teach science concepts by investigation? LET’S INVESTIGATE provides a solution to the investigation strand of the English Science National Curriculum, Sc1 key stages 1 and 2 Let’s Investigate enables teachers:

Lets Investigate enables children:

• To improve subject conﬁdence

• To develop suitable questions and plan investigations

• To teach Sc2, Sc3, Sc4 by investigation

• To obtain data from fun and novel experiments

• To explore various teaching and learning styles

• To consider the evidence from “part investigation”

Let’s Investigate is not a scheme of work but is a suite of stimulating resource material and equipment. Let’s investigate follows the current English QCA scheme of work providing a CD ROM and equipment set for all 37 units. However, it is equally applicable to the Scottish curriculum guidelines for 5-14 in Environmental Studies. Each CD Rom comes with; a Teachers’ Guide containing teacher’s notes and pupil sheets, a Media Library with printable posters, placemats and flashcards, coupled with unique video clips and photographs. The equipment set has sufficient science equipment for ten groups of children to perform the novel and fun activities suggested in the unit. You will find each of the 37 units throughout this catalogue in the appropriate sections. The table on the opposite page shows the QCA scheme of work and the corresponding Let’s Investigate unit (Highlighted Yellow) If you would like to know more about Let’s Investigate before you buy, just contact us and we will send you a demonstration CD ROM which will provide a true insight into the total primary science solution that is LET’S INVESTIGATE!

Plants 5. Living Processes and what Plants Need to Grow Book

This guide aims to help primary school teachers set up and maintain a horticultural garden in which children can grow flowers and vegetables. Information is provided on planning the garden and advice is given on basic gardening techniques. A garden calendar is provided to help teachers plan how to fit the project into the school year. The coloured panels show some flowers and vegetables which are easy to grow, to help pupils choose what they want to plant. Other panels will help them name and learn the roles played by some common garden animals and understand how garden waste and water can be recycled.

This teachers’ booklet is the fourth in a series and focuses on ways that children can grow their own plants and carry out investigations within a scientiﬁc framework. There are activities in the booklet that provide opportunities for development of skills in numeracy, IT and literacy, and reinforces pupil learning in a fun way.

Variation & Classes 6. Fold Out Identiﬁcation Card ‘Bugs On Bushes’

This fold-out chart is designed to help you identify the majority of species likely to be found in a garden throughout the year. Choose the colour of the bird and its size, and you should be able to put a name to it. Different forms for males, females and juveniles are shown where appropriate. The choice of ‘top 50’ is based on the relative abundance of species recorded in the UK by the BTO Garden Bird Watch survey, and should make garden bird identiﬁcation quick and painless!

Aimed at KS2 and above, this 12-page laminated fold-out chart is a name trail designed to help children identify the insects and other invertebrates found in the foliage of plants. The Animal Fact File provides a concise summary of the main groups of animals that may be encountered. Other information is included on food webs, pyramids of numbers and on project ideas based on treebeating, sweep-netting and the use of pooters.

Amazing Materials 1. Baff Gel

5. Smart Colours Starter Pack

You’ve heard about it in the playground, now it’s in the class room. Gelli Baff turns water into goo and when you’re done, like magic it changes back again. Gelli Baff Messy Play comes in powder form in convenient bulk tubs and can be made into goo in any waterproof container, bowl or sink by simply adding the correct amount of water. Once messy play is over, the dissolver sachet turns the goo back into plain old water making it easy to clean up and it won’t block or clog your drains. Please note that we recommend 3 litres of water per messy play tray. This will give you approximately 66 uses per 1kg tub.

This pack contains 1ml of each thermochromic pigment paste, 1 gram of highly concentrated glow-in-the-dark pigment powder and a 20ml syringe of acrylic medium. 20ml of the acrylic base along with the pigment should cover roughly 0.25 square metres (50mm square) depending on the density of the mixture created. When heated, each colour turns into the colour of acrylic base used. Methods of application for the paints are much the same as any other acrylic paints, so methods such as brushing, printing, stamping, etc can all be used. SM76255

SCIENCE CD ROMS, BOOKS & RESOURCES

There is no better way for children to understand their senses and the world surrounding them than by exploring through Science. E-Swots have embraced this statement and created Science Year 1 and Year 2 Interactive E-Learning CD’s with a twist. The content has been developed with the specific aim of targeting children with EAL (English as an Additional Language) in order to foster inclusiveness whilst building confidence in the use of everyday English within an education setting. E-Swots offers inclusion whilst giving educational balance to children with EAL. The educational content comes with the ability to switch into the child’s mother tongue enabling children to listen to the instructions and undertake the exercises in their own language, but then switch back to English if they wish or are instructed to do so. E-Swots content is SCORM and QCA curriculum compliant and is available in multiple languages. Modules covering Life processes, Humans and other animals, green plants, variation and classification are covered together with electricity, forces and motion, light and sound. The modules can be used on their own or along with practical experiments in the classroom as learning reinforcement. Exciting modules such as Tid Bit helps identify and categorize different food types or try your hand at Downhill Rally calculating the speed cars travel down ramps. Take a look at Offspring and How I Reproduce which detail plant reproduction or Sort Out and categorize push and pull activities. E-Swots - an invaluable teaching resource supporting teachers and teaching assistants within the classroom for new arrivals and children with EAL. Available in English Only, Hindi, Bangladeshi, Punjabi and Urdu; Polish to follow shortly.

These books provide information and questions to stimulate the children’s scientific thinking and to suggest investigations which develop their understanding. The emphasis is on using scientific skills in order to learn. Each Pupil Book is supported by a Teacher Book with copy masters. The teachers’ notes suggest ways of introducing and developing a topic, using classroom resources and the school grounds and surroundings where appropriate and using ICT. The copy masters offer a good variety of activities; some are based on children’s first-hand observation, some present information for the children to consider and others require the children to find information from books and other sources.
