Three lessons covering lab equipment and safety, measuring volume and heating water, plus weighing and timing skills. Ideal for KS3 practical science work.

Introduce students to essential practical science skills with this engaging three-lesson package, perfect for KS3 or introductory GCSE classes. Lesson 1 focuses on laboratory equipment and safety, helping learners recognise common apparatus, understand hazard symbols, and develop safe working habits through clear routines and practical activities.

Lesson 2 builds confidence in measuring volume accurately and safely heating water, including correct use of measuring cylinders, beakers, and Bunsen burners or alternatives, with opportunities for hands-on investigation and guided practice.

Lesson 3 develops key quantitative skills by introducing weighing solids and measuring time using balances and stopwatches, preparing students for future experimental work and data collection.

Each lesson includes clear objectives, practical activities, and assessment opportunities. Ideal for teachers looking for a structured, ready-to-use resource that introduces core lab skills and supports successful practical science.
