The "Heinemann Science Scheme" offers an approach to the QCA's Scheme of Work. Teacher's resource packs provide support with lesson planning, with each chapter matching the Scheme of Work, and in-built assessment. The scheme aims to improve on the Scheme of Work by building in progression and a comprehensive revision programme to help prepare pupils for their National Tests. It also aims to make the Scheme of Work accessible to all pupils. The scheme builds on what students already know, following on from the Scheme of Work at Key Stages 1 and 2. It takes into account what pupils already know at the start of Key Stage 3 and builds from there. The "Heinemann Science Scheme" is also designed to build on the literacy and numeracy work pupils have done in primary schools.

Explores how distinctive themes in the early Christianity of the British Isles might be applied in practical terms to Christian life today.

The current fascination with Celtic Christianity is the latest manifestation of a lingering love affair stretching back over the last 1300 years.

It provides a fascinating study of the making of myths and the chasing of dreams. Key Features * First ever comprehensive and chronological survey of the development of the concept of 'Celtic Christianity' * Important new insights into the religious, cultural and intellectual history of Ireland, Scotland, Wales and England * Rich collection of sources with illustrations throughout the text

In God Is Green, Ian Bradley recovers the green heart of Christianity--a God who clothes wildflowers in splendor; reminds Job of his humble part in the cosmic drama; and sends a Cosmic Christ to ennoble and perfect all of creation. Bradley begins with the charges against Christianity--its alleged arrogance toward nature and glorification of man at the expense of the earth--and rebuts them. He accepts that Christians have been dismissive toward nature through the centuries, but he argues that this neglect has been a perversion of the Christian message. By plumbing the Bible, the writings of the early Christians and of the Celtic Christian Church, and the testimony of mystics through the ages, Bradley shows that a sacred world is at the heart of Christian belief. He even argues that of all world religions, Christianity has the greatest claim to be environmentalist because it professes that God is incarnate in the very stuff of nature.God is Green is a simple and compelling explanation for why Christians should be environmentalists.
