Practical Science Skills for Primary Teachers
Course Overview
Content
This Continuous Professional Development (CPD) course uses active learning to enable primary education teachers to engage and enthuse school pupils in science.
Over 3 consecutive after school sessions, the course will take you through three easy-to-implement activities specifically designed for school pupils – one each in biology, chemistry and physics. These fun and engaging projects will enable you to activate your pupils’ passion for science.
Each activity is designed to support children with engagement in the Experiences and Outcomes of the Curriculum for Excellence Framework.
