Cambridge Checkpoint Science Student's Book 2

Summary:
This widley-used and highly-respected Student's Book, for Cambridge Secondary 1 Science, is fully matched to the Curriculum Framework, Cambridge Checkpoint Tests and the Cambridge Progression Tests.

It provides superb support for your students and will bring Science to life with full-colour diagrams and illustrations. It will also help your students demonstrate an investigative and experimental approach, with a strong emphasis on Scientific Enquiry.

Biology, Chemistry and Physics are combined in a single handy volume, but the material is in three distinct sections so you can still teach the course as three separate Sciences if you prefer.

• Ideal preparation for the Cambridge Checkpoint Tests

• Matched to the new Cambridge Secondary 1 curriculum framework for science

• New 'scientific enquiry spotters' feature identifies questions which focus on these skills
