Written by well-respected authors, the Cambridge Checkpoint Science suite provides a comprehensive, structured resource which covers the full Cambridge Secondary 1 framework and seamlessly progresses into the next stage. English language skills are the single biggest barrier to students accessing international science. We've developed this workbook to help Cambridge Lower Secondary Science students understand scientific terms and express themselves effectively in English. The write-in workbook covers English language in science contexts to help students develop their skills and confidence in preparation for the Checkpoint Test. Activities range from choosing the right word in a list of possible answers to writing longer responses. The answers to the workbook questions are on the Cambridge University Press website.
