Bring physical computing to life, whilst introducing the micro:bit to pupils, with these robotic head templates. Program sequenced animations on the micro:bit and then use the templates to display the micro:bit through a robotic form.  A template is provided for printing on paper or card, as well as files for 3D...

In this set of two activities pupils will learn about the different functions of bones and muscles, such as the humerus, ulna and metacarpals and understand how the human arm works. They are given the opportunity to use their own ideas to build and test a model robotic arm, with a full understanding of why robotic...

Roche, the Swiss healthcare company, has created this collection of resources to give some context to how science in school can be linked to the development of drugs.

Some of the activities relate directly to a subject area in science such as disease transmission, the problem with anti-biotic resistant...

This space themed maths game provides an opportunity for children to practice working with number bonds to 10. It can be played either as a board game in pairs or used within an interactive whiteboard page.

To play the game the 10 number cards are shuffled and placed face-down near the board. Players take it...

This activity involves shooting a rocket high into the air by rapidly squashing a plastic bottle launcher.

It’s a great opportunity to challenge the old saying “What goes up must come down”. You won’t get this rocket into space—but some real rockets do go fast enough to prove the saying wrong.

...

In this activity students make an air-powered launcher to propel a card mouse.

Equipment required:

Plastic bottle, card, scissors, tape.

From water and paper rockets to flying mice, create and launch your own rockets using these resources.  You can share your designs via #STEMClubsWeek22

The Young Scientist Investigates topic book on Rocks and Soil was first published in 1982 and gives information, illustrated by full colour photographs and drawings, about the structure of the Earth, how it changes over time, different kinds of rock and soil. It is...

In this resource, pupils will create a solar system mobile and learn about the inner and outer planets in our solar system. They will learn that the outer planets are less dense than the inner planets and the planet with the highest density is Earth. Then will then carry out their own density experiment using...

This Nuffield Primary Science book consists of 11 colourful, and highly illustrated, double-page spreads aimed at students aged 7-9. The book ends with a glossary and index.

...

This Nuffield Primary Science Teachers’ Guide for teaching the Rocks, Soil and Weather topic, to students aged 7-12, is divided into five chapters: 

*Chapter 1: Introduction - covering useful strategies, the SPACE approach and links to the National Curriculum

*Chapter 2: Planning - using the resources...

Produced by the Hamilton Trust, these resources give details of eight lessons on rocks and soils. This includes lesson plans, practical activities and all student materials. Students find out about what is under their feet. Students are always fascinated by rocks and, in this strand, they describe rocks and compare...

These role badges can be used in class when working scientifically. They help promote well organised practical activities and a sense of purpose when investigating in science.

This resource has been provided by CIEC.

Produced by Rolls-Royce, this toolkit of careers resources helps students to see the connection between STEM subjects studied in school, college or university and future job opportunities. The resources are designed to help students to understand: * The wide range of jobs and industries which require STEM skills....
