Cambridge IGCSE science practicals

We know developing learners’ practical skills can be challenging. We can help. We’ve filmed science teachers Michael Strachan and Matthew Broderick running a series of practicals with their students from their new Cambridge IGCSE™ Biology and Chemistry Practical Workbooks. You can use these films to become familiar with their approaches and develop students’ knowledge and skills. Michael and Matthew test the practicals they develop in the classroom to make sure they best support your students.

What do our customers say?

Amazon reviewer

A near perfect book! Excellent course book – a delight to read – clearly sets out and integrates facts, theory and practical applications seamlessly, especially when used with the excellent workbook and teacher’s CD.

Cambridge IGCSE Biology teacher

The book is perfect for me, and it will be perfect for my students too.

Amazon reviewer

The great thing is not just that it matches the syllabus – it is also extremely well written in a very student-friendly way. Everything is clearly laid out and explained...in language which should be relatively easy to understand, even for students whose first language isn’t English.

Unplugged activities for your Cambridge Primary and Lower Secondary Computing classroom

Unplugged activities offer your learners a chance to engage with a concept in a new way without relying on an electronic device. It’s important for teachers to recognise these opportunities for learning beyond the screen.
