<p>Posters intended to celebrate the International Day of Mathematics, or Pi Day. The material is fully editable and consists in:</p> <ul> <li>Two sets of posters (9 with portrait orientation and 7 with landscape orientation) printable up to size A2. The images in the posters illustrate the themes: Honeycomb Conjecture, Golden Angle, Symmetries, Fractals, Chaos Theory, Pi, Logarithmic Spiral and Prime Numbers. Two of the posters make an introduction to The International Day of Mathematics where you can add your school logo or any other logo needed;</li> <li>The posters are accompanied by smaller posters, intended to be A5 in size, to be place near each poster and explain the relation between Mathematics and the image;</li> <li>A document with links to YouTube videos related to the themes of the posters that can be exhibited in a TV at school.</li> </ul>

<p>Two editable worksheet for pupils to complete as they watch the documentary Chemistry: A Volatile History - The Order of the Elements presented by Professor Jim Al-Khalili. The documentary tells the history of the Periodic Table, and it is a good way to introduce this subject.<br /> The worksheets include twenty short-answer questions, as well the answers and answer timings in the documentary, and they are different in both documents.</p>

<p>Pupils can draw the telluric planets’ orbit with the correct eccentricity and avoid common misconceptions. Although the orbits are elliptical, most of the time they are represented with an exaggerated eccentricity. For example, Venus’ orbit is practically circular.<br /> “The telluric planets’ orbit and how to draw them” consists in a brief introduction to the subject of orbits and 4 sheets (one for each telluric planet) with the focus represented so the pupils can use them to draw a more realistic orbit.</p>

<p>Bundle of material to celebrate the World Oceans Day and activities to explore the challenge they face due to climate change.<br /> It contains:</p> <ul> <li>7 posters (5 horizontal and 2 vertical) size A3 to advertise the World Oceans Day. These are fully editable, so you can add your school logo or any other logo you want.</li> <li>6 experimental protocols you can do with your pupils to explain how climate change affects the oceans. They explore ocean acidification, ocean currents and sea level rise.</li> <li>6 posters size A3 fully editable to support the experiments.</li> <li>A brief introduction to the oceans and climate change, which support the experiments.<br /> The experiments can also be used to raise awareness of the problems of climate change and used in another context than the World Oceans Day.</li> </ul>

La presentación (y guion) explica cómo se puede encontrar el sur utilizando la constelación Osa Menor. Esto se logra primero por un video que simula el cielo nocturno a lo largo de la noche y luego con esquemas que explican cómo encontrar el nor en el horizonte. Las imágenes utilizadas en esta presentación se obtuvieron de Stellarium, un programa de planetario libre.

A apresentação (e guião) explica como encontrar o sul usando a constelação da Ursa Menor. Isto é conseguido primeiro com um vídeo que simula o céu nocturno durante a noite e com esquemas que explicam como encontrar o norte no horizonte. As imagens utilizadas nesta apresentação foram obtidas a partir do Stellarium, um programa de planetário gratuito.

The presentation (and script) explains how you can find the south using the constellation of Northern Star. This is achieved first by a video that simulates the night sky throughout the night and then with schematics that explain how to find the north in the horizon. The images used in this presentation were obtained from Stellarium, a free planetarium program.

Esta é uma apresentação (e respectivo guião) para estudantes do ensino secundário que explica os espectros no contexto da Astronomia. Explica o que são os espectros, como cada elemento tem o seu espectro caraterístico e como este conhecimento pode ser aplicado na identificação da composição química de uma estrela hipotética. A apresentação pode ser utilizada como introdução ao ensino do modelo atómico de Bohr.

This is a presentation (and the teacher’s script) for secondary students to teach spectra in the context of Astronomy. It explains what spectra are, how each chemical element has a characteristic spectrum and how this knowledge can be applied to identify the composition of a hypothetical star. The presentation can be used as an introduction to the teaching of Bohr’s atomic model.

Esta es una presentación (y el guion del maestro) para los estudiantes de secundaria que enseña espectros en el contexto de la Astronomía. Explica qué son los espectros, cómo cada elemento químico tiene un espectro característico y cómo este conocimiento se puede aplicar para identificar la composición de una estrella hipotética. La presentación puede ser utilizada como una introducción a la enseñanza del modelo atómico de Bohr.

The presentation (and script) explains how you can find the south using the constellation of Crux. This is achieved first by a video that simulates the night sky throughout the night and then with schematics that explain how to find the south in the horizon. The images used in this presentation were obtained from Stellarium, a free planetarium program.

This is a presentation (and the teacher’s script) for secondary students to teach spectroscopy and Bohr’s atomic model. The presentation uses schematics to show how Bohr’s model explains the absorption and emission spectra of the element hydrogen.

<p>Students are challenged to determine Io’s orbital period using the equations of a simple harmonic motion and data taken from images obtained from the freeware program Stellarium<br /> The material consists on: An editable presentation showing how the motion of the moon Io around Jupiter is an example of a simple harmonic motion (seen from Earth), the script for the teacher explaining the presentation and activity and the document for the students with the necessary images and a table to help then draw the graph and obtained the orbital period (.pdf and .doc).</p>

The document describes activities aimed at secondary chemistry students and based in Jules Verne’s “Round the Moon”. It gives a different context to explore subjects traditionally taught to these students: enthalpy, bond energy, thermal decomposition, chemical reactions and balance of chemical equations.

Esta é uma apresentação (e o roteiro do professor) para estudantes do ensino secundário para ensinar espectroscopia e o modelo atómico de Bohr. A apresentação usa esquemas para mostrar como o modelo de Bohr explica os espectros de absorção e emissão do elemento hidrogénio.

A apresentação (e guião) explica como encontrar o sul usando a constelação do Cruzeiro do Sul. Isto é conseguido primeiro com um vídeo que simula o céu nocturno durante a noite e com esquemas que explicam como encontrar o sul no horizonte. As imagens utilizadas nesta apresentação foram obtidas a partir do Stellarium, um programa de planetário gratuito.

La presentación (y guion) explica cómo se puede encontrar el sur utilizando la constelación Cruz del Sul. Esto se logra primero por un video que simula el cielo nocturno a lo largo de la noche y luego con esquemas que explican cómo encontrar el sur en el horizonte.
