Science & History together
Delivering scientific topics through cross-curricular science/historical contexts encourages opportunities for creative and independent enquiry and discursive argument within Key Stages 2 and 3.
The combination of history and science has proved a hugely valuable tool through which pupils can become conversant with techniques and processes vital to the study of science through topic based, contextualised learning.
Historical methodology provides an extra depth through which the nature and progress of science can be explored and serves as an opportunity to introduce the social and ethical issues in science to nurture reasoning and encourage creativity in both pupils and teachers.
Why don't you try combining science with history in your school?
