These days, running a club is an accepted part of the teacher's remit, adding additional pressure to an already substantial workload. The Big Book of Primary Club Resources: Science and Outdoor Learning aims to ease that burden, providing a simple and clear week-by-week plan for science focused clubs.
Each chapter explores the sciences in a different context and covers skills and content not in the National Curriculum to ensure the topics explored are standalone and do not conflict with classroom lessons. Containing two years' worth of club sessions, this book is a quick, accessible and easy to use guide which provides clear and creative ideas, all of which are easy to resource, set up and run. A myriad of science and outdoor learning topics are covered, including:
- the human body
- weather
- chemistry and special effects science
- the environment
- mathematics of the natural world
- outdoor survival skills
All activities are adapted for KS1 and upper and lower KS2 and achieve highly satisfying outcomes for pupils. Taking the strain out of club-planning, this book is an invaluable resource for teachers and teaching assistants running clubs for children aged 4-11.
