LGfL Skoool helps to show students the value of what they learn in one subject in the context of what they learn in another.
One clear example of this is in the crossover between Maths and Science. Principles that are learned in one subject are vital to the understanding of topics in the other.
Skoool for Key stage 1/2 covers
a wide range of Maths and Science and encourages children to think about the links
between both subjects.
Interactive Maths lessons cover Measurement and Data, Numbers, and Shape and
Space.
Interactive Science lessons cover Energy and Forces, Environmental Awareness and Care,
Living Things and Materials.
Science relates to many different subjects taught at Key Stage 3 and 4, in both development of skills and in factual content. The major areas of overlap with concepts taught in Mathematics are given below.
