An introduction to the concept of shadows.

This resource is split into two parts. One part deals with pitch and the other with the loudness of sound. Through animations and interactive activities pupils learn: 1. that loud and quiet sounds are produced by big or small vibrations. 2. that high or low pitched notes are produced by fast or slow vibrations. There are printable sheets for follow up investigations.

The resource is designed to build on KS1 work by developing understanding of the key concepts related to sources of sound and how sound travels to the ear. The first section looks at different sources of sound and a short video is available as stiumulus for the start of a lesson. The second session looks at how the vibrations travel out and away from the source of the sound. The third section check the pupils understanding through simple interactive activities.

Explores the forces at work when a vehicle travels down a ramp.

This unit begins by revising the symbols used for components in an electrical circuit diagram. Section 1 asks pupils to look at a circuit diagram and decide whether the cicuit would work before building and testing it. Section 2 asks pupils to drag components on to the screen to build particular circuits

A series of interactive activities that develop number through Science. The activities have been classified as shown below: •Interdependence of organisms •The sustainable Earth •How things work •Assortment

An introduction to teeth, what are teeth made of, and do you like the dentist?

The calendar is a collection of tasks and activities related to seasonal changes in the weather and how this in turn affects plants, animals, birds, food and farming. Key features in January and February : •Winter weather •Big Schools’ Birdwatch 2009 The project aims to encourage pupils to engage and observe nature and also to motivate them to produce their own digital calendar.

This resource uses animations and interactive activities to explain to pupils how sound can travel through all materials not just air and that some materials are better than others at conducting sound. The pupil's understanding can be tested with the follow up investigation into what material insulates sound best. There are downloadable worksheets and investigation notes available with this pack.

Six flipchart lessons covering cross curricular work in science (keys) and IT (branching databases). The materials cover comparing and contrasting online keys (or databases) based on tree identification. The children are then shown how to make a multimedia branching keys using PowerPoint. Contains worksheets, and photo packs.

An interactive whiteboard resource designed to extend understanding of feeding relationships. Suitable for upper KS2. Pupils are reminded of feeding relationships and food webs are revised. They are then asked to consider what would happen if one section of the web was changed or removed. Introduced to the term interdependence. Pupils then continue to investigate the effects on an ecosystem when part of it is altered in any way. Simplified models are shown and it should be stressed that the effects are far more complex in reality.

This interactive resource is designed to extend pupils knowledge of Food Chains and feeding relationships. Pupils revise the terms 'Producer' and &'Consumer&';. A link is provided to a revision video for food chains. Pupils introduced to multiple food chains and shown how they can be produced more accurately as a web. Pupils encouraged to complete information based on food webs from the countryside and from a pond/river. Pupils finally produce their own food web based on a tropical rainforest ecosystem.

Eight interactive activities that complement the Anglesey Red Squirrel Education Pack. The activities are suitable for KS1 and KS2 pupils. They range from labelling the squirrel to recognising leaves. They are designed to enhance the pupil’s learning experience through studying the Red Squirrel in its natural habitat. To order the complete Red Squirrel education pack contact caechwarel@btopenworld.com.

This is designed as an introduction to Food Chains for younger KS2 pupils. Pupils are introduced to the terms 'Producer' and &'Consumer&';. Using 'Food For&' arrows, pupils work interactively through a series of food chains, identifying the correct order. Ecosystems covered are British countryside, tropical rainforest, lake/river and seashore

This unit invites learners to consider their understanding of the human body. Using their own experiences and information provided for them it provides opportunity to think about, draw, write and discuss the position and size of some of the organs in the human body. Learners are encouraged to investigate systematically the effects of exercise on heart beat rate and to represent their results in variety of ways.

A resource that investigates what constitutes a healthy balanced diet.

Pupils should be able to name a selection of light sources, including the sun, and identify some of the uses of light in the environment. The first two parts of the activity asks pupils to sort a collection of items into those which are sources of light and those which are not. The rest of the activity deals with uses of light in the environment, asking pupils to identify the source of light in a picture and to say what the light is used for.
