Investigate the effect of gravity with this easy experiment to add fun to your science lessons without lots of planning or resources. This is a great way of looking at gravity in a slightly different way. We are used to thinking about gravity making things fall, but this experiment shows us how we can use what we know about gravity to make things STOP falling over too. This pack contains a practical sheet to laminate a use with your class, a teacher tips sheet with helpful tips, extended background information, ideas for extending the activity and risk assessment. There is also a link to our blog for an electronic version of the experiment. Curriculum links: KS1, Lower and Upper KS2 - Working scientifically Year 5 Forces

Help your children learn tricky science words with these free primary science resources from our resource HUB. There’s no getting away from it – science words are big. Even some of the words that our children encounter from a really early age can be pretty daunting – think about herbivore, dehydration even microscope can be pretty challenging to remember when you are also learning tens of other new words a day. Luckily, although us scientists might be fans of overcomplicated words, we are (mainly) quite logical so by teaching children a few root words to recognise, we can give them a clue as to what the word is about and how to decode it which is a brilliant shortcut to teaching scientific vocabulary. The resource contains 2 printable pdf sheets with 18 root words and their meanings and a link to 2 online games: The root word matcher - using the same pictures as in the printables, children can match up the root word to it’s meaning. Decode the word - using the root words in the printable, the task is to match up the word to it’s description. The games are perfect to use on a whiteboard as a class or on individual devices.
