I post things that are finished and that work. I make resources when I can't find anything that works in the way which I want it to. If they don't work for you then let me know through the comments section and I'll try to put them right. If they do work and you like them then please comment too. Some things take a long time to make and to get right... so I charge a little for those.

Advertising Triple Science to KS3

Triple Science Opens Doors is a powerpoint that can be used in assemblies or on interactive displays to advertise the benefits of triple science. I have also printed out the individual slides and displayed them in groups of three in labs and corridors. There are slides linked directly to food tech, product design, music, english, geography, history, so have them displayed there too!!
