Unit 1 is by far the longest: twenty-two pages, because it covers a lot of ground from the senses and healthy food to teeth. Every other unit is 14 to 16 pages, and almost every lesson is a two-page spread (the page numbers rise by two for each lesson).
What the lessons show
- A sensible order. Living things come first (unit 1), then plants (unit 2). Materials come next (unit 3), then rocks and soils (unit 4), which are two kinds of materials. The book ends with forces: magnets and springs (unit 5) and friction (unit 6).
- Hands-on lessons. Titles such as Building bridges, Exploring paper, Stretchy materials, Sorting rocks, Testing soils, Exploring springs, Testing spinners and Exploring friction point to investigations that a child can do.
- Health and the body. Unit 1 spends four lessons on food and activity (Food types, Healthy eating, Keeping active, Animal food) and three on teeth (Types of teeth, Healthy teeth, Clean teeth), which is good material for daily habits at home.
- Exercise pages. Pages 95 to 100 give one exercise page for each unit, so a child can check what was learned after the review.
Pairing with the workbook
The Grade 3 workbook in the same series has the same six units, in the same order, with 76 worksheets. A class that uses both can match the unit titles one to one: the student book is for reading and discussion, and the workbook is for recording investigations. The student book's unit 4 is Rocks and soils and its unit 5 is Magnets and springs, just as in the workbook.
Home ideas (not part of the book)
- Unit 1: write down a day's meals and sort each food into types; look at your teeth in a mirror and name the different kinds.
- Unit 2: compare a plant in a sunny window with one in a dark cupboard (never harm the plant; return it to light after a day or two).
- Unit 3: build a small bridge from paper and test how many coins it holds.
- Unit 4: collect three stones and pour a little water on each. Does any one soak it up?
- Unit 5: find out which things a fridge magnet picks up and which it does not.
- Unit 6: slide a toy on a smooth floor and on a rug and compare.
How to use the student book
- Read a lesson, then try something. Each lesson is a two-page spread, so a short reading and a short activity make a good evening.
- Use the review at the end of each unit as a quick check.
- Use the exercise pages (95 to 100) a week after you finish a unit.
- Use the glossary (page 101) to learn new words, and the index (page 105) to find a topic.
