The training element of the Forensics Project is in 3 parts and this is part 1. It includes PowerPoint presentation and resources to teach a lesson on science equipment and Bunsen burner safety. Context posters are included for free in this bundle. This project is part of the JACOSA scheme and is an introduction to science at KS3. It is often used at the start of a new academic year when introducing a class to a science lab for the first time. Charles Hobbles has been found dead in his laboratory and a young team of forensic scientists are being trained on how to use the contents of their kit bag.

This is the PowerPoint presentation to support the first lesson of the Forensics Project. It supports the first context poster of this project. Ideal for first lesson of a new term and introducing pupils to a science lab for a first time. This Key Stage 3 resource is part of the JACOSA scheme. This story based learning project provides students with a compelling learning experience that is designed to put learning into context. The resources that are used to support this lesson are available to download on TES.

This Key Stage 3/4 resource is part of the JACOSA scheme. This story based learning project provides students with a compelling learning experience that is designed to put learning into context. The posters are often used at the beginning of lessons to excite learning. Teachers can plan lessons around the story. In this project, students solve scientific puzzles to open doors and chests that will eventually lead to some buried treasure. This unit of work is usually used in upper KS3 The project includes learning on resultant/net forces, density, mass and weight, moments, pressure and speed.

This Key Stage 3/4 resource is part of the JACOSA scheme. It is used to teach pupils the science concepts of elements, compounds and mixtures. This story based learning project provides students with a compelling learning experience that is designed to put learning into context. The context posters, which are included in the PP, are often used at the beginning of lessons to excite learning. Teachers can plan lessons around the story. In this project, pupils need to escape from Puzzle Island by solving puzzles and thinking scientifically. Hidden on the island are different objects. Pupils can click on each object to find out what element it’s made from and what its chemical symbol is. In this lesson of the project, pupils have to complete the missing parts of a periodic table. This is a 12 lesson unit, but additional lesson can be added if the teacher chooses to. Use the notes and professor Element to help you navigate your way around the island.
