Description |

skills |
| |
- are not specific to a particular
year group |
| |
- develop cross-curricular skills,
particularly in the area of IT |
|
test results with other schools |
|
design and produce cards to a professional
standard |

Sets of workcards, tested
in schools, to support open-ended investigations
at KS2 and lower KS3 into fast plants. |
