EURING promotes international collaboration on all aspects of scientific bird ringing, particularly in Europe and along the Eurasian African flyway. These sharable data sets can be used across the curriculum to develop data science skills.

This Science upd8 resource is set in the context of astronomy. Astronomers have found the most Earth-like planet outside our Solar System. Through analysing data students justify whether or not they believe the 'new' planet to be Earth-like. 

Earth Day is an annual event where people can participate in numerous events to show their support for environmental protection.

The theme for Earth Day 2025 is ‘our power, our planet’ and is focussed on highlighting the the worldwide need for renewable energy sources and production.  

This series of activities from NASA take a mathematical approach to looking at the Earth and its atmosphere. They are intended as supplementary problems for students looking for additional challenges in mathematics and physical science from age 11 to 19 years.

The problems were created to be authentic...

The films in this collection look at how scientists study volcanos. The films contain footage of volcanoes erupting and cover areas such as the formation of islands, types of eruption, the structure of volcanos and whether we can predict eruptions.

Produced by the Science and Technology Facilities Council (STFC), these naked Scientist podcasts look at Earth science questions in an accessible and informative way.

The Earth Science Teachers' Association have produced a wide range of resources for use by primary, secondary and post-16 teachers and students. Consisting of a range of printed materials, they include teacher guidance as well as classroom resources. Resources cover general aspects of earth science as well as...

Basketball Earth
This resource uses a basketball as the Earth to set up a scale model to the distance to the Moon, satellites and distances such as the thickness of the...

A Catalyst article about how the study of ancient rocks and sediments can help deduce how the Earth's atmosphere has changed over billions of years. There used to be much less oxygen than there is today. This article describes how the composition of the atmosphere has changed through history; it also explains the...

This Catalyst article investigates how the Earth's magnetosphere protects us from harmful cosmic radiation.  The article is from Catalyst: Secondary Science Review 2015, Volume 26, Issue 2.

Work done in this Nuffield 13 - 16 module followed from the S unit called ‘Keys and detection’. This S unit provided enough material for eight double periods during a single-certificate science course. The teachers’ guide included two worksheets to supplement the...

In this resource students learn that the Earth’s surface is split into tectonic plates and that earthquakes usually happen at plate boundaries. They will explore how when an earthquake happens it releases vibrations, called seismic waves, and there are different types of...

Easter is traditionally the time when the Easter bunny arrives with chocolate eggs and treats. This collection of resources highlight activities around the themes of...
