Practical worksheet for comparing the masses of various objects that can be found in the classroom. Children select objects to compare using a set of scales. They have to find objects that are heavier than, equal too and lighter than. Used to help teach about comparing mass and using scales. Comes as a fully editable DOC and also in PDF format. *Ideally requires the children to use a set of balance-beam scales, although any type of scale for measuring mass could be used. *

Great series of worksheets to bring structure and scientific inquiry in building electrical circuits. Made up of four electrical circuit practical worksheets. Children have to complete one before proceeding to the next. Each successive one is more difficult than the previous. Each page involves drawing drawing and building a circuit followed by testing it and answering related questions. Children will build and test both series and parallel circuits. *Requires that the children have the basic pieces to create each electrical circuit to test. Circuit 1 - Comparing the brightness of one and two bulbs in series. Circuit 2 - Comparing the speed of one and two motors in series. Circuit 3 - Parallel circuits and a logic diagram. Circuit 4 - Freestyle circuit building, testing and evaluating.

This editable worksheet contains six simple (series) electrical circuits for the children to build. After each one, there are a series of questions relating the circuit. Take a look at the preview for further details.

A crossword puzzle for reviewing the process of the water cycle. It’s A3 size so it’s great for pairs or small groups to work together on. You could always print as A4 if needs be though. Available as both an editable DOC and PDF. There are 28 question in total. Here are a few examples of the clues inside: A large body of fresh water. When water flows off a surface. Water as a solid. Floating chunks of ice in the sea. I see how far the children are able to get through it before letting them use their books to help out.

A food diary for children to record their diet over the course of a school week. Great for when learning about healthy balanced diets and nutrients. Encourages children to reflect upon their own diet and potentially improve it as a result. The booklet includes an example page that gives an idea of what is expected. Each day is split into three meals with snacks and include the following questions and starting statements for each: What did you eat? How much did you eat? Was it tasty? I should have eaten more… I should have eaten less/fewer… Do you think your diet was balanced for this day? Why or why not? The document is fully editable in Word, so you could add extra days or remove as necessary.

A full work-through for an experiment on mummifying an apple. Includes the full scientific method from hypothesis through to conclusion. Great to get some science into a topic about Ancient Egypt. I usually begin the experiment so that a month or so later, it coincides with a look at the mummification process. We also create an Adobe Spark video to explain the way the Egyptians made their mummies. Extra discussion prompts: What foods to we preserve? How and why do we preserve them? How is this similar to the process of mummification?
