Resources
Students arriving in Year Seven may bring with them very different experiences of science. This unit is composed of over 50 short activities, divided into nine sections, which can be used as a ‘pick-and-mix’ resource to introduce students to the procedures and equipment in a secondary school laboratory and bring...
A series of resources from Defence Dynamics in which the teaching and learning of mathematics is put into a military context. Students' activity sheets show how important mathematical concepts are used in real-life situations by the armed forces. The resources are:
Bearings- students plan...
Resourcing Practical Work
These two reports were published by SCORE (Science Community Representing Education), in response to two commissioned reports - Under the Microscope: the...
This item is one of over 25,000 physical resources available from the Resources Collection. The Archive Collection covers over 50 years of curriculum development in the STEM subjects. The Contemporary Collection includes all the latest publications from UK educational publishers.
Respiration and Photosynthesis
This animation allows students to view the processes of photosynthesis and respiration. In particular, it tackles the common misconception among students that respiration in plants does not take place at the same time as photosynthesis...
Part of an accessible series on core science topics such as matter, metals, plants and gravity.
Respiration Changes During Fruit Ripening and Storage
This practical activity, from Science & Plants for Schools (SAPS), investigates the process of respiration. Suggestions are given for looking at different fruits or vegetables and measuring the respiratory rate during the ripening process.
...An introduction to the respiratory system. The reader is led through each part of the body involved and introduced to what each part does.
Response to Stimuli
This resource from Defence Dynamics looks at how the human body responds to external stimuli and contains video clips which demonstrate the effects of high G-forces on the body. The activities help students to consider the receptors which allow the body to detect external stimuli and the roles of sensory, relay...
