Cambridge IGCSE™ Biology Practical Workbook

Author: Matthew Broderick

Written by an experienced teacher who is passionate about practical skills, the Cambridge IGCSE® Biology Practical Workbook makes it easier to incorporate practical work into lessons.

This Workbook provides interesting and varied practical investigations for students to carry out safely, with guided exercises designed to develop the essential skills of handling data, planning investigations, analysis and evaluation.

Exam-style questions for each topic offer novel scenarios for students to apply their knowledge and understanding, and to help them to prepare for their IGCSE Biology paper 5 or paper 6 examinations.

  • Suitable for the Cambridge IGCSE™ Biology syllabus (0610) for examination from 2016.
  • Ideal for both Paper 5 and Paper 6 (practical test and alternative to practical).
  • Endorsed by Cambridge Assessment International Examinations.
  • The practical workbook helps to save teachers' time by providing pre-devised investigations with questions as well as answers to aid with marking.
