Roadmap to show the year overview in Science Y8 following CIE Checkpoint. I use it as a poster so that students can follow the scheme of work for the school year in a simplistic way.
The traffic lights (end of unit tests) show the unit number with a colour code depending on the science.
I have included a printable version and an editable version so that it can be tailored to fit other textbooks.
Feedback would be very appreciated as I would like it to be useful for my students so if you find something wrong or missing do let me know.
This power point shows some basic activities to be done with the app iCircuit. It is a great opportunity for KS3 science students as the can build easily parallel and series circuits and then some more complex ones with more components. The last slide offers a final task about Galvani and Volta’s work.
Short lesson designed for the Safer Internet Day but can also be taught in PSHE to encourage fact-checking through education.
Students are encouraged to check claims seen on the internet. It includes a slide with several fake news for students to debunk.
Equip your students with all the tools they need to master line graphs and bar charts this easy-to-use power point presentation designed specifically for Science KS3 students.

This is a collection of five impactful games fostering teamwork, creativity, and critical thinking among students. The top two favorites are:
Psychiatrist: Sharpens communication and observation skills through engaging interactions and interpreting cues.
Task Whisperer: It challenges students to navigate intricate scenarios by communicating with precision and by dissecting problems from multiple angles.
You will also find:
The Mystery Classmate: Weaves communication, observation, and collaboration skills together, unraveling classroom mysteries.
Tactile Art Relay: Elevates teamwork and creativity, yielding amusing results.
Creative Connections: Sparks communication and creativity.
These games offer a dynamic learning platform, nurturing essential life skills with engagement and enjoyment.
You will find a set of clear instructions and variations for every game but do not hesitate to contact me if you have doubts.

The objective of this activity is to introduce students to science while fostering team collaboration and getting to know each other.
Divide the group and give them the science-themed question cards, students will work together in groups to answer questions and share their responses, simultaneously introducing themselves to their peers and teacher.
The resources include the power point presentation I follow on my first day of Science so that I set expectations for they year and an icebreaker activity.
All resources are editable for you to add or remove items and customise it for your needs.
These slides include slides to teach a revision lesson for the topics about ecology and human impacts on ecosystems following iGCSE Cambridge Biology syllabus (0973-0654) for students to practice before their official exams.
