Book Lists in Science


Science Resource Description
The Literacy in Science book lists offer a curated selection of titles that blend the wonders of literature with the intrigue of scientific concepts, tailored for various year groups in the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) and primary school years 1 through 6. The lists include works like "Otto Blotter, Bird Spotter" by Graham Carter, which encourages observation and exploration of the natural world, and "The Extraordinary Gardener" by Sam Boughton, which inspires a love for gardening and the environment. Each book is carefully chosen to support the development of literacy skills within a scientific context, encouraging young learners to discover and engage with the world around them through reading.
For older students, the selection becomes more sophisticated, with titles such as "The Story of Inventions" by Anna Claybourne & Adam Larkum, which delves into the history and impact of human ingenuity, and "George’s Secret Key to the Universe" by Lucy Hawking, Stephen Hawking & Gary Parsons, which takes readers on an adventure through space and time. These lists are not only educational tools but also gateways to imagination and curiosity, providing children with the opportunity to explore complex scientific ideas through the engaging medium of storytelling.
