50 demonstrations and experiments that have been used to make science engaging and memorable. There is a range of practical demonstrations and investigations for biology, chemistry and physics for different scientific topics for key stage 2, 3, 4 and 5.
Topics include chemical reactions, nuclear fission, nuclear decay, half-life, life cycle of the star, food and digestion, sound, waves, earth and its atmosphere, speed, velocity, acceleration, DNA, genetics, cells, momentum, energy, efficiency, combustion, respiration, inertia, change of state, forces, magnets, electricity, polymers, super cooling, pykrete, seed dispersal, moments, heat transfers, convection, terminal velocity, rate of reaction, rockets, pH, acids and alkalis and pressure.
A set of multiple choice questions that can be sued to assess students either as a starter, plenary or revision task.
Works best with voting kits, pre-made flash cards or whiteboards. Also students can record answers in back of books.
Covers: energy, energy transfers, units, energy resources
Great plenary, starter or revision activity.
A student is given a card and has to describe the word without using any of the three words given or the actual word.
Students can then make their own versions too as great revision too.
The idea works that students should know the core building blocks around the edge of the page.
The task therefore is to work inwards and begin to summarise these key points in the middle, only focusing on the things they have forgotten.
The final task is to get this all on to a postcard - their revision notes to take away! This makes it all manageable for the student.
This is one topic only and the full unit can be downloaded as a complete file.

Covers: conduction, convection, radiation, heat transfers, density, current
This booklet supports a series of lesson and is designed for Entry Level/SEND students to allow them to access the key elements of science. If used in a mixed ability class, these booklets allow students to keep pace with the rest of the class whilst personalising the challenge and support they require.
The booklet is part of a series of booklets with a variety of tasks including matching keywords and definition, scaffolding, extended answers, research and a lot of practical work with matching results tables/graphs.
Some of the diagrams have had to be removed for copyright.

A set of three planning cards that support students through the necessary steps to complete a successful investigation.
Steps include:
- Forming a hypothesis
- Research
- Method
- Variables - Independent, dependent and controls.
- Risk Assessment
- Conclusion
- Graphs
These can be printed on A1 sheets to make as a classroom display. They can also be printed as A3, laminated and then students can use post it notes to complete.
This is designed to familiarise students with the how science works terminology and format for laying out a clear practical.
Resources included:
- All combined science lessons with lesson plan, Powerpoint and other resources.

Articulate game. Can be used as a starter, plenary or challenge/quiz game.
The student selects a card about the topic studied and has to describe the words using words, picture/diagrams or actions. More points are awarded for not using words or diagrams!!
Great for competition! A fun an interesting game that really engages the students!
Remember to have some rewards for the best action and winner!
