Lesson used for an outstanding lesson observation.
Used for KS3 but can be used for KS4.
No powerpoint needed but need to make small quadrats… cut out and laminate they are 5cm x 5cm.
Both worksheets need to be printed onto A3. The worksheet is a booklet using one page of A3.
Quadrat sampling on daisies… Allows analysis of data, biodiversity and sampling.

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.
