Activate 1 Student Book Summary

Activate 1 Student Book by Philippa Gardom Hulme

Activate aims to spark a love of science from the start of Key Stage 3 and build students up towards GCSE. Activate Student Book 1 is split into distinct Biology, Chemistry and Physics units. Working scientifically activities are woven throughout as well as having a full chapter to introduce skills like recording, analysing and evaluating data. Each unit opens with a reminder of what has been covered at Key Stage 2, so students can make links to what they know already. Picture Puzzlers are a great way to grab students' attention while maths and literacy skills activities are clearly labelled.

Activate 1 Student Book Reviews

Activate is an extremely competent and professionally built new KS3 resource, written and tailored to the 2014 programme of study. It has been designed to engage students' interest in science from Year 7 and take them through to GCSE success, and it has that 'no stone left unturned' reliability factor to it that will fill you with confidence. * Teach Secondary magazine *
Delivers the curriculum in a fun and interesting way and offers good support for students of all abilities. A great resource for Key Stage 3! * Dr Adam Naylor, Science Teacher, Didcot Girls' School *
After having looked at all the schemes available for the new KS3 National Curriculum, Activate has by far the best thought out assessment package. Whoever thought this out needs a good pat on the back. In the end there was no other choice but Activate for our students. * Mat Power, Head of Science, Holy Cross Catholic High School, Lancashire *
