Dear Teacher,
Welcome back to the new school year. Have you finished updating your periodic table posters to add the four new elements that have recently been discovered?
Finding new and interesting ways to present science content to teenagers can be a challenge. The Instant Lessons PowerPoint series and the Achieve! range of titles feature creative teaching ideas and ready-to-use units of work that are easy for teachers to implement and mark.
• Address the years 7–10 national curriculum biology requirements with Living Things, Ecosystems and the Science Understanding: Biology series. These resources have all been developed especially for students who struggle to use and understand standard text books.
• Improve students’ skills and understanding of topics such as evaluating evidence and creating and analysing data with the Instant Lessons PowerPoint series. The four titles focus on the skills of science, both in and out of the laboratory.

The Achieve! Interactive Instant Lessons Science series has been written by a literacy expert, in consultation with experienced science teachers, to assist secondary school students with low literacy skills to access the regular science curriculum and enjoy success working on topics alongside their classmates. Each title in this series contains 6 units of work with full-colour interactive lesson pages and worksheets that can be used on Interactive Whiteboards, on laptops or in computer labs. The worksheets are also photocopiable. Each interactive lesson features full-colour photo stills, diagrams and illustrations, plus roll-over definitions and images that reinforce and explain lesson content.

Assignments in Junior Science
Each book in the Assignments in Junior Science series provides a selection of innovative activities that incorporate a range of theoretical and practical scientific skills, and also involve the development of literacy skills. As students work through these activities, they will utilise basic scientific skills such as working with formulas, completing calculations, making generalisations and explaining what they have discovered.
This series is about the nature of scientific method and testing ideas. Students will learn how to develop good scientific questions, how to investigate them and then draw evidence-based conclusions. Most units include a PowerPoint presentation on CD-ROM to summarise and extend the content explored, as well as a follow-up activity sheet. Use the Instant Science PowerPoint series to supplement your existing resources, to introduce new topics or for revision and assessment purposes.

Maximising Exam Marks – Senior Chemistry
Maximising Exam Marks – Senior Chemistry is a collection of photocopiable worksheets, which are designed to assist senior students in those areas that they have traditionally found difficult or have typically performed poorly on in exams. The questions are broken down into the important steps or concepts to be mastered, and are marked with the following labels: ‘things to know’, ‘hints’, ‘tricks’, ‘slips’ and ‘traps’.
