Science

 

At Stanton Primary School, we follow the Kapow curriculum for Science. This curriculum offers engaging lessons and rich experiences for the children to support them in delevoping their Scientific knowledge and skills. 

 

Lessons focus on a range of skills including: 

Posing questions 

Planning 

Predicting 

Observing 

Measuring 

Researching 

Recording 

Grouping and classifying 

Graphing 

Analysing and drawing conclusions 

Evaluating

 

Practical Science sessions are planned into every unit to allow the children to explore the world around them and to be curious. We encourage the children to pose their own questions and to find answers to these through exploration. We also give the children opportunities to explore Science through school visits such as to Twycross Zoo and the National Space Centre. 

 

The curriculum has been sequenced to ensure a progression of knowledge and skills is taught and embedded across the school. Each year group has a "Making Connections" unit of work to draw on skills and knowledge that the children have already learned.
