'Where do I stand?' cards - perceptions activity
This activity allows students to indicate their perceptions on a particular question. The question might be a debate e.g. ‘Should we build more nuclear power stations?’, ‘Is cloning a good idea?’ or ‘Should social media be banned?’.
To use the cards, print and laminate the cards. Lay the cards out along a line and ask the students to stand near the card that represents how strongly they agree (not on the card due to risk of slipping). Then ask them to justify their reasoning.
This works really well when carried out before and after a debate.
Designed for use in science, these also have use in other subjects such as Citizenship, PSHE and RE. Inspired by an activity at the NCT.

What killed the Mammoths (editable)
This is a collection of resources that would work well as a lesson. A lesson outline is provided showing how the resources might be used together. There is an email designed to set the scene and for use as as a ‘hook’. There are also sheets for learners to summarise their learning (tweet).
You may want to supplement the resources with pictures of a woolly mammoth (link only due to copyright restrctions) and video ‘footage’ e.g from Ice Age movie.
This was designed as lesson for a KS3 nurture group although would be suitable for KS2 or other KS3 groups with adaptation.
Please note that this is an editable version. A free, non-editable version is also available.

Food chains & energy transfer (updated)
This is an editable worksheet based activity that includes some higher order thinking to explore the ideas around energy transfer in simple food chains. Two versions are included, one with revised GCSE (1-9) grades, the other without. (please note that grade indications are only approximate). Why not try getting learners to choose a selection of questions to answer (e.g. do Q1-4 or Q3-8) An answer sheet is included.
This resource was originally designed for OCR 21st Century Science unit B3, but still applies across a range of exam specifications.
Keywords: energy, transfer, food chain, efficiency
