A workbook built for investigation
This is not a book of facts to copy. Many worksheet titles are questions to test: Do more leaves help a plant to grow well? (WS 15), Which type of paper absorbs water fastest? (WS 30), Are bigger magnets always stronger? (WS 55), How far will a paper spring stretch? (WS 60), Which is the most streamlined shape? (WS 74). A child who works through them practises the steps of a simple experiment: ask a question, predict, test, measure and report.
Several worksheets carry a name, which suggests a pupil's own notes or report: Maya's notes (WS 7), Ali's postcard (WS 39), Tariq's report (WS 47), Shameena's report (WS 56), Class 3's report (WS 63) and Bushra's diary (WS 34). Others are making tasks, such as Make your own forcemeter (WS 57), Paper frog (WS 58), Elastic-powered boat (WS 64) and How to make a spinner (WS 73).

What children practise, unit by unit
- Unit 1 – Living and growing (12 worksheets). The senses, healthy food choices, keeping active, balance and looking after teeth. It ends with a teeth-cleaning comparison (WS 10 and 11), which is a good example of a fair test at home: does a different cleaning method change the result?
- Unit 2 – Helping plants grow well (10 worksheets). Sorting plants with a branching key (WS 13), then leaves, plant parts, seeds and light, and a closing question about where plant foods come from (WS 21).
- Unit 3 – Characteristics of materials (13 worksheets). Different materials and their uses, then a run of paper investigations: strength, absorbency and a bridge challenge (WS 28 Bridging the gap with paper!).
- Unit 4 – Rocks and soils (13 worksheets). Types of rock (two worksheets, WS 36 and 37, with "cakes" and "bathrooms" in their titles), sorting, scratching and hardness tests (WS 38 to 41), then soil: types, comparing, testing and draining.
- Unit 5 – Magnets and springs (17 worksheets). Magnetic and non-magnetic materials, comparing the strength of magnets, building a forcemeter and a paper spring, and a final assessment (WS 65).
- Unit 6 – Friction (11 worksheets). Friction on a bicycle (WS 66) and on different surfaces, marble force, measuring forces, streamlined shapes and a paper aeroplane challenge (WS 72).
How to use the workbook
- One worksheet, one sitting. A worksheet is one page, so keep each to 15 or 20 minutes.
- Predict before you test. Ask your child "what do you think will happen?" and write the answer before the experiment.
- Test one thing at a time. The idea of a fair test (change one thing, keep the rest the same) is the heart of this book.
- Measure and record. Use a ruler, a measuring jug or a stopwatch if one is available, and write the numbers in the table.
- Check with the assessment worksheets (WS 12, 22, 35, 48, 65 and 76) at the end of each unit.
Home ideas (not part of the book)
- Compare two kinds of tissue paper to see which one soaks up water faster.
- Collect three different stones on a walk and scratch them against each other.
- Use a fridge magnet and a few coins to find out which things stick.
- Slide a toy car down a board covered with cloth, paper and foil, and see how far it goes each time.
