ANIMALS, including HUMANS: Growth, Survival and Health Power point slides are used to introduce each of four topics in this unit: * Growing … growing , growing Life Cycles What animals need to live What we need to keep healthy* Each topic is followed by activities to reinforce the concepts presented. This has been used mainly with 6 to 8 year olds.

Students identify that: humans and some other animals have skeletons and muscles for support, protection and movement in a four-part teaching pack. Slides supported by worksheet sets with learning activities, cover the topics: What is a skeleton? Why do we need a skeleton? – Protection Why do we need a skeleton? – Support Why do we need a skeleton? – Movement

Five power point presentations and five worksheets presents the topic of light to students to enable them to • recognise that they need light in order to see things and that dark is the absence of light • notice that light is reflected from surfaces • recognise that light from the sun can be dangerous and that there are ways to protect their eyes • recognise that shadows are formed when the light from a light source is blocked by an opaque object • find patterns in the way that the size of shadows change This has been used mainly for Year 3.

The curriculum revisits the topic of LIGHT at different stages of the Student’s development. Students build on their prior learning to assimilate new concepts. This unit extends the concepts and ideas studied at about age 7 to 9. It covers the topics: How light appears How we see Shadows and light Reflections Making a periscope Refraction Power point presentations scaffold students through the concepts, investigations and activities. Activities are presented in worksheet form with notes and areas for diagrams, comprehension and recording of investigations.

This unit is aimed at year three and aims to fulfill the objectives: Identify that animals, including humans, cannot make their own food. Recognize that animals, including humans, get nutrition from what they eat. Identify that animals, including humans, need the right types of nutrition. Identify that animals, including humans, need a balanced diet. Each of the following topics is covered using a presentation and is followed by worksheets with activities: Animals, including humans - nutrition Animals, including humans – What is nutrition? Vitamins and proteins Animals, including humans – What is nutrition? Carbohydrates, fibre and water Animals, including humans – How much is enough?

This unit is suitable for 7 to 8/9 year olds. It has mostly been used in year 3. It requires different types of magnets plus some everyday objects in order to complete the activities. There are six lesson power point presentations and six worksheets with activities and on which to record investigations. Topics include: How do they move? Friction Don’t touch! Attract or Repel Magnetic or Non-Magnetic How we use Magnets

This set of power Point presentations and worksheets should be used with your rock and soil samples to enable students: to visualise how the three types of rocks are formed and relate this to the rock samples they have to compare and group together different kinds of rocks on the basis of their appearance and simple physical properties to recognise that soils are made from rocks and organic matter. to explore different soils and identify similarities and differences between them and to investigate what happens when rocks are rubbed together The lessons are: Sedimentary Rock Igneous Rock Metamorphic Rock Grouping and Sorting Rocks - colour Grouping and Sorting Rocks – lustre Grouping and Sorting Rocks - hardness Grouping and Sorting Rocks - cleavage Grouping and Sorting Rocks – minerals and crystals What is Soil?

ELECTRICITY Used for 10 to 11 year olds, this interesting unit is presented using power point slides and worksheets with activities to support learning. Topics: Reminder - What is electricity? Current and Voltage? Important electrical components Investigating voltage and electrical conductors The power of fruit and vegetables Investigating resistance Making a wire loop game Drawing circuits Making circuits work

Aimed at Year 5/6, this unit explores forces and motion. There are slides, activities and worksheets to support learning and understanding. One lesson draws attention to Sir Isaac Newton and his contribution to mathematics and science. Topics include: What is a force? Balanced and unbalanced forces Gravity Friction Air resistance Forces acting on aeroplanes Water resistance Levers Pulleys Gears Isaac Newton

Eight lessons using power point presentations to discuss: Theories about earth and space The Big Bang Theory Our Galaxy The formation of our solar System Planets Day and Night on Earth Season The Moon There are worksheets for each lesson.

A unit in which students explore and identify the way sound is made through vibration and find out how the pitch and volume of sounds can be changed. Using power point presentations, practical activities and worksheets, students identify how sounds are made, associating some of them with something vibrating recognise that vibrations from sounds travel through a medium to the ear find patterns between the pitch of a sound and features of the object that produced it find patterns between the volume of a sound and the strength of the vibrations that produced it recognise that sounds get fainter as the distance from the sound source increases. This unit has been used mainly with 8 to 9 year old students. The activities require some everyday items including some musical instruments for the students to work with.

In the course of seven presentations and seven worksheets, this unit helps students to: recognise that living things have changed over time and that fossils provide information about living things that inhabited the Earth millions of years ago recognise that living things produce offspring of the same kind, but normally offspring vary and are not identical to their parents identify how animals and plants are adapted to suit their environment in different ways and that adaptation may lead to evolution Fossils as scientific evidence Mary Anning Adaptation Evolution Charles Darwin Genetics Chromosomes and DNA Reproduction and inheritance

Properties and Changes in Materials is a ten part unit. It consists of ten lessons with activities on worksheets and ten power point presentations. The topics covered in the unit are: Describing the Properties of Materials Hardness of Materials Transparent, Translucent or Opaque Materials Solubility Electrical Conductivity Thermal Conductivity Magnetic materials Mixing and dissolving of materials Reversible and irreversible changes Separating materials Filtration, Evaporation and Sieving

This is a useful resource for beginning the science curriculum with students in Year 4 Topics: Finding knowledge Prediction and Hypothesis A Fair Test Setting up a Science Experiment Collecting data Analyzing and drawing conclusions The Scientific process in discovering our COVID vaccines There are seven power point presentations, seven worksheets and notes for students.

Working Scientifically 5 is a good introduction to scientific methods and terminology. It covers: Creativity in Science Planning to experiment The main variables that may affect investigative results Communicating conclusions Evaluating accuracy of conclusions Five presentations are used to illustrate the important concepts above. Each is followed by activities for learning in worksheet form.

Seven lessons with power point presentations and lesson activities in worksheet form. Topics: The main internal organs Blood Heart Blood vessels Respiration Lungs Exercise for the heart and lungs Lesson activities include: Comprehension activities; Expression of opinion giving reasons; Survey on healthy lifestyle; Planning exercise; Drawing and labeling diagrams.

Animals including Humans: Eating and Digestion: There are eight presentations, plus corresponding notes and worksheets for students. They cover the following topics: Eco systems – consumers and producers Consumers in the food chain Human teeth Teeth in animals Mouth and the tongue The Throat and Oesophagus The stomach and intestines The different ways that animals digest food

Use the six power point presentations to introduce your students to the scientific methodology and concepts: How Science has had a positive and negative effect over time Following the Scientific Method Exploring scientific ideas Getting accurate results Recording and concluding Limitations of tests Follow up with the six sets of notes and worksheets for each lesson.
