Sports and Games

The Science in a Topic students’ book Sports and Games begins with exploring games and sports in the present, past and other countries. Investigations include bouncing balls, reaction times, the impact of games played on grass, the tension in racquets and what affects the movement of a ball through the air. Activities for students are well illustrated by drawings and photographs. The teacher has an active role, as indicated in the relevant sections of the Teacher’s Guide, in providing materials and reinforcing the questions that lead the students to investigate, create and find information.
