What is this book?

Hodder Education's Cambridge Primary Science Learner's Book 1 is a vibrant, enquiry-led science course crafted to spark curiosity in young children. Rather than presenting abstract facts, the Second Edition guides early learners to think, observe, question, and experiment like real scientists right from their first school year.

The course is organized into four scientific strands preceded by an introductory method section ('How to use this book', 'Be a scientist', and 'How do you think and work like a scientist?'). In Biology, pupils explore living and non-living things, examine plant parts, and discover human senses and body structures. In Chemistry, children investigate everyday material properties such as hard, soft, rough, and smooth textures. In Physics, learners experiment with pushes and pulls, listen to sound vibrations, and discover the wonder of magnets and simple circuits. In Earth and Space, students examine local soil, rocks, weather patterns, and the Sun and Moon. Each major strand concludes with an engaging review quiz, supported by a learner-friendly Science Dictionary on page 139.

Distinctive features of Hodder Cambridge Primary Science 1

Important publisher distinction: Hodder Education vs CUP

This textbook is published by Hodder Education (with Judith Amery and Rosemary Feasey as series editors), distinct from the Cambridge University Press (CUP) edition written by Jon Board and Alan Cross. Both series are endorsed by Cambridge Assessment International Education for code 0097, but their unit sequences, activities, and illustrations differ. Parents must check whether their school specifies the Hodder edition.

'Thinking and Working Scientifically' (TWS)

Embedded throughout the units are dedicated prompts that help six-year-olds practice scientific skills: predicting what might happen, testing materials with water or touch, recording observations in simple drawing charts, and discussing results with classmates.

Visual clarity and end-of-strand quizzes

Every scientific strand concludes with an illustrated quiz (pages 50, 73, 115, and 138) that allows teachers and parents to assess learning retention without stressful formal testing.

Why this book?

• Cambridge endorsed: Officially endorsed by Cambridge Assessment International Education for the Primary Science curriculum (0097).
• Enquiry-based pedagogy: Encourages direct exploration through everyday items like magnets, leaves, torches, and toys.
• Includes Science Dictionary: A dedicated picture-assisted dictionary on page 139 helps primary pupils master core scientific terms.

Who is it for, and when is it used?

This textbook is designed for Class 1 / Stage 1 pupils aged 5 to 7 years enrolled in Cambridge-stream schools, international academies, and premier private institutions across Pakistan (such as LGS, Beaconhouse, Roots, City School, and LACAS).

Schools typically teach Biology and Chemistry (Units 1 to 4) during the first term (August to December), and Physics and Earth and Space (Units 5 to 9) during the second term (January to May/June). Parents can consult the page numbers in our table to follow the school's weekly investigation schedule.

How to help at home

• Living vs non-living nature walks: Take your child to a local park or garden to identify things that are alive (plants, insects, birds) versus not alive (pebbles, benches, toys), reinforcing Unit 1.
• Material scavenger hunt: Challenge your child to find objects in the home made of wood, metal, plastic, and glass to practice Unit 4 material vocabulary.
• Magnet exploration: Provide a simple refrigerator magnet and let your child discover which household items are attracted to it (Unit 7).
• Review Science Dictionary terms: Spend five minutes weekly reviewing terms from the Science Dictionary on page 139 to strengthen scientific vocabulary.
