Oxford Connections: Year 6: Interdependence and Adaptation: Science - Pupil Book: Year 6 Science Book

"Oxford Connections" books are based on literacy consultant Sue Palmer's 'skeletons' concept, whereby the children are shown a text model of the text type with which to write notes using the structure of the 'skeleton' as a guide. Within the titles there are notes, diagrams or pictures that the children will use as the basis for writing a piece of text. It is a genuinely cross-curricular scheme. Each book contains material to teach literacy and geography, science or history. Each book matches the literacy requirements for non-fiction for one year within the NLS, and history, geography or science material within one unit of the QCA schemes of work for the National Curriculum. Suitable for the Scottish 5-14 and Northern Ireland curricula as well. It teaches children to read and particularly to write different types of non-fiction.Read More
