CamScanner Document Quality Enhancement

Oxford International Primary Science Student Book

• Book authored by Deborah Roberts, Ferry Hudson, Ian Haigh, Geraldine Shaw, John McMahon, and McMahon.
• Published by Oxford University Press.
• Focuses on science topics for primary students.

Exploring Animals

• Students learn how animals are similar and different.
• Animals are sorted into groups (amphibians, birds, carnivores, fish, herbivores, mammals, omnivores, reptiles, etc.).
• Key body parts and senses (touch, taste, sight, hearing, smell) are explored.
• Diversity among children is highlighted as an example of difference.

Sorting Animals

• Scientists sort animals into groups based on observable features.
• Vertebrates (animals with backbones) are distinguished from invertebrates (animals without backbones).
• Studying animal features, habitats, diets, and behaviours are discussed.
• A research approach involves utilizing diverse resources like books, magazines, and the internet.

The Vertebrate Groups

• Vertebrates are divided into five classes (amphibians, birds, fish, mammals, reptiles).
• Each class is characterized by unique features (breathing methods, reproduction, physical characteristics, etc.).
• Key facts illustrate how scientists classify animals.
• Clear and concise statements about each class assist in learning and understanding.

What Eats What?

• Differentiates between carnivores, herbivores, and omnivores.
• Focus is on animals' diets and their roles in the ecosystem.
• The importance of classifying animals based on what they eat is emphasized.

Sorting Unusual Animals

• Animals that might be harder to categorize into normal groups are highlighted.
• Students are encouraged to think about the unique characteristics of different animals to identify their group and class.
• Scientists' methods of grouping animals into classes are discussed.

Same But Different

• Comparing human faces with each other to highlight similarities and differences.

Our Body

• Parts of the human body are identified and named.
• Emphasizes the importance of naming and recognizing body parts.
• Key words are used to understand parts of the body.

Our Senses: Seeing, Hearing

• Students explore the 5 human senses (seeing, hearing, tasting, smelling, touching) through various activities.
• Discusses how our senses help us understand the world, giving factual explanations.
• Specific examples of senses and how they function are illustrated.

Our Senses: Tasting, Smelling, Touching

• Taste and smell are used for safety and recognition of food.
• Sense of touch guides us in avoiding potential harm from objects.
• Key words like salty, sweet, smell, touching, dangerous are introduced with explanations.

What Have I Learned About Exploring Animals?

• This section includes fill-in-the-blanks
• Provides opportunities to review and assess comprehension.

What Is It Made Of?

• Exploring various materials (fabric, glass, metal, paper, plastic, rock, water, wood) and their characteristics.
• Identifying objects made from certain materials.
• Understanding the different properties of materials and how they perform specific functions.

Different Materials

• Differentiates between hard and soft materials.
• Explores how materials can be used and the variety of properties they exhibit.
• Encourages the exploration of different materials and their diverse characteristics.

What Do Materials Look and Feel Like?

• Differentiating properties between materials (dull, shiny, hard, soft, rough, smooth, strong).
• Recognizing the tangible properties of materials through observation and experience.
• Emphasizes the use of observation and recording for accurate conclusions about materials.

What Can Materials Do?

• Identifying waterproof materials.
• Investigating which materials can resist water (waterproof) and which ones cannot.
• Understanding the significance of waterproof materials in different applications.

What Else Can Materials Do?

• Exploring the properties of materials that can float and/or sink.
• Understanding what determines whether an object floats or sinks.

Metals

• Identifying properties of metals.
• Understanding what constitutes a metal and its properties (hard, shiny, capable of being molded or wire).
• Emphasizing the importance of metals in everyday life.

Metals and Non-Metals

• Differentiating between metals and non-metals.
• Demonstrating how to identify various materials as either metal or non-metal.

Useful Materials

• Discusses different types of materials (plastic, glass, wood) and how they are used in everyday applications.

Sorting Materials Into Groups

• Learning how to group materials or classify materials according to shared characteristics.
• Determining the key properties that materials share for sorting (e.g., waterproof, stretchy)
• Investigating materials by comparing and classifying similarities among various materials.

Fast and Slow-Moving Objects

• Exploring the differences in speeds between various objects.
• Understanding forces that may increase or decrease speed.

Stopping and Starting

• Discussing moving objects and how outside forces (pushes, and pulls) affect their movements.

Look at Things Moving in Wind

• Identifying how wind affects the movement of things.
• Learning about turbines and how they generate electricity using wind.

Look at Things Moving in Water and Wind

• Examining how water and wind impact the movement of objects.
• Understanding the principles of floating, sinking, and how objects move in water and with wind.

Explore How Things Move (Pushes and Pulls)

• Identifying forces that are responsible for moving objects.
• Using pushes and pulls to investigate motion principles and their effects.
• Investigating various motion examples in the environment.

Fast and Slow-Moving Objects

• Investigating how forces can make objects move faster or slower.
• Observing real-world examples of fast and slow-moving vehicles and their characteristics.

Exploring the Movement of Toys

• Exploring various forces (pushes and pulls) responsible for toy movement.
• Understanding how toys can be made to move by manipulating forces.
