Many of the commercially available ‘Science Dictionaries’ use technical language that is not necessarily accessible for all our students. However, many textbooks have suitable glossaries that reflect the level of science being taught and could therefore be more appropriate.
The Oxford Student’s Science Dictionary. Oxford University Press (OUP) is a well-renowned school resource. OUP has a primary and secondary science dictionary.
