Science Home Experiments - Egg Drop Parachute Challenge
Perfect task to set at home for pupils of all ages!
Guide to creating a egg drop parachute
Pupils require very few materials and can complete the experiment following the worksheet provided which has an experiment list, method and diagram.
There is also a work sheet with questions for pupils to complete and send back to you to report how their home experiment went.
Designed by an experienced Science Teacher, I have completed this experiment with KS1, KS2, KS3 and KS4 pupils.

This is a 3 part resource with planning of equipment and method for each science club activity. It has been trialled for 2 years now and each practical with measurements work.
Each activity provides an opportunity for young scientists to become involved in scientific experiments. The pack should allow staff to plan science clubs quickly.
Included in each pack is:
Medium term planning
Equipment lists
Methods
Youtube video links for tutorials
Pictures to show you what it should like
All practicals have been trialled and tested with a science teacher, lab technician and pupils from ages 11-19.

MEGA BUNDLE KS4 AQA GCSE Glossaries Complete Set of Biology Chemistry and Physics (Combined or Separate)
Including 24 glossaries for
T1-T7 Biology
T1-T10 Chemistry
T1-T7 Physics
Included:
-Blank Glossary
-Completed Glossary
I personally find it better to print the Blank glossary on A3 and stretch across 2 pages in an exercise book but works well on A4 also.
One page A4 key words taken from the national curriculum a balance of Tier 1-3 Keywords for pupils. Definitions extracted from a Science Dictionary/AQA or English Dictionary.
I use at the start of a topic and allow pupils to either complete all for homework or complete 5 a lesson.
Works well to encourage good vocabulary in lessons.
