Curiosity has its own reason for existing.’ Albert Einstein** **Our Science Intent is quite simply to build on children’s curiosity and encourage them to find out why things happen. It is our intent that our children will learn to ask scientific questions and begin to understand the way in which science will affect their future. Our Science allows our children practical, hands on and engaging access to the world of science; learning about the world around them and acquiring the skills and knowledge for later life.** ### Science Curriculum Information Year 2 coverage 795 KB [Open for printing](https://files.schudio.com/howard-primary-school/files/documents/Science_Knowledge_and_Skills_Coverage_Year_2_-_updated.docx) Year 6 coverage 549 KB [Open for printing](https://files.schudio.com/howard-primary-school/files/documents/Science_Knowledge_and_Skills_Coverage_Year_6_updated.docx) Science Coverage EYFS 846 KB [Open for printing](https://files.schudio.com/howard-primary-school/files/documents/Science_Knowledge_and_Skills_Coverage_EYFS.docx) Science Coverage Year 1 511 KB [Open for printing](https://files.schudio.com/howard-primary-school/files/documents/Science_Knowledge_and_Skills_Coverage_Year_1_updated.docx.pdf) Science Coverage Year 3 427 KB [Open for printing](https://files.schudio.com/howard-primary-school/files/documents/Science_Knowledge_and_Skills_Coverage_Year_3_updated.docx.pdf) This document shows a year group example of what our children cover each year.
