Foreword<br />
<strong>Science</strong>: A <strong>STEM</strong> <strong>Approach</strong> (Infants to 6th Class) is a series of copymasters written to support the science<br />
curriculum, while offering a way to introduce a <strong>STEM</strong> Project based on the concepts taught.<br />
Each book is divided into sections on Living Things, Energy and Forces, Materials, and Earth and the<br />
Environment. Linkage between the sections is present, where relevant. The last section, Earth and the<br />
Environment, recognises the close integration between the science curriculum and the geography<br />
curriculum. Content for this section in particular adheres to the SESE principle that "much learning in<br />
science, geography and history will take place through the integrated themes or topics that teachers<br />
use to organise their work" (<strong>Primary</strong> <strong>Science</strong> Curriculum, Introduction, page 9).<br />
The <strong>STEM</strong> Project at the end of each section also develops this integrated, cross-curricular approach,<br />
drawing on skills and understanding from other curricular areas (such as geography, mathematics,<br />
SPHE and visual arts).<br />
