Mental Science

A great way of keeping the children's science brains active. Touching on a topic in science once in a while means that, very often the children forget it 2 months down the line and so I created a mental science session. The session can be 5 or 30 mins long and is carried out verbally or on whiteboards. The children colour in a box every time they get a question correct which gives them a chance to evaluate the areas of science they are not so confident in. There are questions on: Animals & Humans, Forces, Electricity, Sound, Rocks & Minerals, Earth & Space and Living Things. I have used this with my classes and they absolutely loved the fast paced nature of it and the fact that they were constantly having to think back to things they had covered ages ago. Great Science assessment scores as a result!
