Two ASE SYCD: Science Year Primary quizzes based on familiar formats.

Who wants to be a scientist? is based on a well-known quiz format. It is a PowerPoint presentation, using overheads. You may want to print these out in black and white.

Questions are based around the Physical Processes teaching...

The RA3 project, provided by the Centre for Science Education, aims to bring parents together with their children and teachers to explore the worlds of science, technology and mathematics.

Through stimulating group activities parents and guardians are encouraged to collaborate, in a learning environment,...

The aim of this resource is to give students the opportunity to investigate the impact of science, technology, engineering and mathematics on radar technology. Students explore the how to build structures, then design and build their own radar tower.

Welsh versions of the guidance documents are included.

This activity is a space-themed coding project for learners, combining six to ten hours of STEM linked learning. These lessons use Scratch game creation to explore space and interplanetary missions.

This very successful citizen science project is run annually by the RSPB. It is an ideal opportunity for pupils of all ages to identify different bird species and count the numbers they see in the school grounds. Details about the competition and the RSPB supporting materials can be found...

This collection supports learning about the identification of birds, aspects of literacy, mathematics and design and technology. Created to support the Big Schools’ Birdwatch, the activities may also be used independent of the larger survey at other times of the year.

The resources have been provided by the...

In this Cre8ate maths activity students learn that a simulation is a model of a real situation. Data for the birth rate of rabbits is provided and is used by students to develop their own model to simulate the breeding of rabbits in a field and consider the likely damage to the farmer’s crop. Initially this is done...

This activity aimed at primary learners, links to work explanatory texts and D & T by looking at the processes involved in the production, use and disposal of drinks cans. During the lesson opportunities also arise for discussing the environmental benefits of recycling steel and aluminium and the costs of...

A collection of mathematical investigations designed for use with students aged nine to fourteen. [b]Contents include:[/b] activities covering arrangements and patterns using numbers, activities using a hundred square grid, sums and products, subtraction, calendars, networks, angles in polygons, what's my age?,...

This lesson sets the scene for the study of the Lunar Discs, and gets students to think about the contexts and history leading to the collection of the Lunar samples in the loan boxes. By considering the events of the space race, role playing taking a moonwalk, and considering the actions of the astronauts,...

This series of activities from NASA take a mathematical approach to looking at radiation, and will make the student familiar with many forms of radiation, how it is measured, and what different doses can lead to over time. They are intended as supplementary problems for students looking for additional challenges in...

This resource contains 12 lessons, for students aged 8 to 12, that look at radio waves and other invisible forms of light. Lesson 1: Looking at radio telescopes and objects that do and do not use radio waves Lesson 2: Making an antenna dish from paper to amplify your voice Lesson 3: A discussion on X-rays Lesson 4...

This resource, aimed at primary level, contains mathematical activity ideas linked to the science rainbow spinner demonstration. Activities in this resource investigate: radius, diameter and circumference of a circle, angles and puzzles. This resource has been...
