PLEASE NOTE - this is a replica of the print book and you will need paper and a pencil to complete the exercises.

STEM subjects are where the future's at. Now you can be a science superstar with this colorful practice ebook.

Are you a budding Einstein? Or do you need a little more help to avoid falling behind in science class? This workbook will help cement everything you need to know about "STE" subjects through practice questions and practical exercises. Easy-to-follow instructions allow you to try out what you've studied, helping you understand what you've learned in school or giving extra study practice before that important test.

Aimed at children aged 7-14 (Grades 2 and up), the ebook covers all the key areas of the school curriculum, including how science works, life, matter, energy, forces, and Earth and space. And there are answers at the back to check that you're on the right path.

This workbook accompanies the How to Be Good at Science, Technology, and Engineering coursebook, but can also be used on its own.
