Six resources in the Co-operation between Science Teachers and Mathematics Teachers series produced by the ISCU Committee on the Teaching of Science considers how mathematics is used in other areas of the curriculum.

This resource is a full investigation with additional activities using a variety of multi-sensory approaches where students are experimenting to make the best protective sea wall.

These are activities on the theme of...

This is one of a series of resources to support the use of the BBC micro:bit. This resource focusses on pupils designing, programming and using a BBC micro:bit to find other micro:bits in a class treasure hunt.

In this activity pupils will make use of the BBC micro:bit to design and create a programmable...

Produced by the Microbiology Society, this resource contains highly illustrated and accessible information about how the common cold is caused by viruses. A simple classroom activity looks at how the rhinovirus can be spread.

This lesson is designed to consolidate students’ understanding of the particle theory of matter, particularly as it applies to changes of state. The lesson begins by viewing an animation in which the temperature decreases until it is close to...

Purpose: The camera built into many mobile digital devices is an effective way of recording the equipment used in practical science, and the outcomes of investigations.  A sequence of recorded images displayed as a collage, with annotations added, is a simple and quick way to communicate procedures and findings to...

Purpose: Usually students work in groups at a practical activity, and use their own results to interpret the outcomes. For some investigations, it is helpful to use larger data sets, than single groups could collect during a lesson. Google forms provides a simple means of collating a large number of sets of data,...

In this video from Osiris Educational Bill Rodgers discusses what effective colleague support can reasonably be given when dealing with behaviourally...

Purpose: Good practical science should include a variety of types of investigation and locations. Digital technology can support activities that involve outdoor work and observations over time, without being disruptive to school routines. 

Teaching approach: In the example described in the link below, data...
