Immerse your class in learning about properties of materials, states of matter and reactions with the help of the colourful characters featured in the new Disney and Pixar animated film Elemental.
The resource encourages children to think critically about the properties of, and potential reactions between, the Elemental characters and put forward their hypotheses about what could happen when they interact.
The resource consists of a science-themed lesson, a home learning activity and
a competition to bring together children’s understanding
of scientific concepts and language.
This resource will immerse the class in the world of Disney Snow White using the enchanted forest as a stimulus to learn about habitats and the different creatures that make the woods their home.
With links to both the Science and Maths curriculums, the Woodland Wonders
activity sheet will guide learners through the mysterious world of the forest.
Learners will follow a path through the woodland, discovering different habitats on their way. They will fill in the missing words in the descriptions to demonstrate their understanding of the different forest habitats. Learners will then complete symmetric figures to reveal the animals that live in the woodland habitats.
Our optional competition will invite learners to reflect on what they might look like at their best and bravest. The prompts on the Mirror Me competition sheet will encourage pupils to think about how body language, clothes, accessories, and other people can contribute to the feeling, and projection, of bravery. Learners will use their creativity and drawing skills to create a picture of themselves looking brave and write a short paragraph explaining their design choices.
