13+ Science

Can anyone please recommend resources for 13+ Science? We have the Galore Park books which I think are good but a bit dry. Looking for something to bring it all to life a bit really.

Grateful for any ideas!

Oaka books .We have the online version where there are some 3d images and you can move inside the cell etc.They were originally designed for Dyslexic students doing common entrance but are equally useful for my year ,8 girl doing Science as well ( and will be used by my current year 6).The images are brightly coloured and every pack seems to include testing as you go.

Sounds interesting. My science knowledge is woefully inadequate, as is my French, Latin, geography, maths.....

my daughter used the topic books to revise for a lot of her dual science GCSE and came out with a BB (when she was predicted Es). The topic packs are KS3/CE but they cover all the key facts they need to know and present the information in a very visual way as well as having games and activities.

It is a bit flippant and definitely not madly in depth, but the cgp 13+ science revision book is, I found, quite useful in giving an overview of everything so you can chart what is needed, with handy nemonica etc. I supplemented it with your Cambridge gcse books which had more than was needed but gave context
