Pupil Books
"Catalyst textbooks are extremely pupil-friendly – they maintain a high level of interest."
Mr Sainsbury and Mr Moffatt, Greenwood Dale School, Nottingham
Saving you time and effort
We've included lots of features to save you time – such as reminders of points learned at Key Stage 2 or in previous
Catalyst Pupil Books, glossaries and in-built Sc1.
Perfect for teaching the Framework
As well as following the QCA Scheme of Work order, the Pupil Books provide you with a stimulating way to teach the five key scientific ideas from the Framework: cells, forces, particles, energy and interdependence.
Covering the full ability range
Red Pupil Books (for the more able) and Green Pupil Books (for the less able) have identical pagination, so you can use them side by side in a mixed-ability class.
Supported by inspiring software!
The Catalyst Teacher Resource CD-ROMs enable you to get the very best from both the Red and Green Pupil Books. Plus the audiovisual resources in Catalyst Interactive Presentations tie in perfectly with the books!
