Pupils will learn about materials and forces, including gravity and air resistance, in this experiment from the IET. Using Christmas as an opportunity to get practical, p...

These diagnostic questions and response activities (contained in the zip file) support students in being able to:

• Identify a range of circuit diagrams that represent the same parallel circuit.
• Describe how to measure the voltage across the battery and across each branch of a parallel circuit...

These animations, from the Wellcome Trust, help to show how parasitic worms are a major public health problem.

Thriving in numerous parts of the world associated with poor sanitation or water, these parasites have devised ingenious mechanisms that allow them to enter the human body, resulting in serious...

This ASAB (Association for the Study of Animal Behaviour) resource pack focuses on parental behaviour in nuthatches, in particular the parent-chick interactions during feeding.

The resource provides a summary of the key events in the rearing of a nuthatch brood and a film of parent-chick interactions during...

Help encourage your child's STEM skills, passion and talent with this parents' guide to engineering careers.

This progression toolkit develops understanding of the key concept of particle model for the solid, liquid and gas states, as part of a topic on substances and mixtures. This key concept helps to build broader understanding about particles and structure, which is one of the big ideas of science education at ages 11...

These downloadable videos and animations are part of the multimedia package Stuff and Substance, developed by the Gatsby Science Enhancement Programme (SEP). They can be used to introduce a particle model to explain why a substance can exist in both the solid and liquid...

This Nuffield 13 - 16 module is one for the start of the three-year programme. This B unit provided enough material for six double periods in the third year of secondary school (year nine). The teachers’ guide included six worksheets to supplement the students’ booklet...

The Particles sub-collection is made up of pedagogical guidance and classroom materials for use with students. All materials were published by the Key Stage Three Strategy and the Secondary Strategy between 2002 and 2003.

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

This progression toolkit develops understanding of the key concept of particles in solutions, as part of a topic on substances and mixtures. This key concept helps to build broader understanding about particles and structure, which is one of the big ideas of science education at ages 11-14.

This resource provides a lesson plan showing how to use educational games, such as bingo, to teach about parts of the cell and their function.

The research summary discusses how pupils find it challenging to identify and describe the functions of the internal components of a cell, and how this understanding...

This resource helps pupils to label the various parts of a plant including flowers and use the correct vocabulary to describe the function of each part. Whilst designed to support pupils with additional needs in upper primary school it can also be used by pupils who need support in lower secondary school.
