The activities in this book have been specifically designed with this in mind. Straightforward and practical, it offers 101 creative classroom activities for teaching Science and Computing to pupils who are working below national curriculum levels, as well as mapping the range of additional skills they will acquire.

It translates and distills their extensive specialist knowledge and compelling and creative approach into inclusive, fun and engaging activities. Staff will be able to dip in and out of this book to create accessible and irresistible Science and Computing activities, whether or not they have specialist knowledge themselves.
Jane Turner, Director, Primary Science Quality Mark
A great resource for SEN teachers. Well-organised, comprehensive coverage of key science concepts, with a clear focus on working scientifically skills. The lessons will inspire genuine engagement with phenomena and ideas.

101 Inclusive and SEN Science and Computing Lessons provides teachers with a range of engaging, accessible lessons that highlights the importance of key concept exploration together with the introduction of basic scientific vocabulary. The realistic resource requirement for each lesson highlights how 'Supermarket Science' is vital for educational establishments with a limited Science budget. The authors have a 'real' understanding of how SEN pupils learn by emphasising the importance of visual and kinaesthetic activities. In addition, the lessons are functional, promoting independence and providing our pupils with the opportunity to apply the Science they have experienced to 'Everyday Life' at home.
