Science Express: Life Processes

Take the Science Express to Buttercup Village where students can learn all about life processes and living things with the help of Daisy the train driver, and Doug, a curious young boy. Doug leads students around the village to five engaging activities that are designed to develop scientific understanding and investigation skills. Students can select healthy lunches from the school kitchen, go on a nature trail around the village, or grow new plants at the Garden Center. In addition, Daisy's short, focused 'test' activities enable students to consolidate their understanding of key objectives and can be completed in narration-free mode, making them perfect for teacher-led work on an interactive whiteboard.
