A basic introduction to electricity lesson - can pupils name the electricity symbols, build a simple circuit, and then build the circuits from the diagrams and describe if they work and how to fix them if they dont there are 2 different levels to all the worksheets and all resources needed are included in the lesson

a worksheet about the blue lagoon geothermal energy plant in Iceland. Gets pupils thinking about renewable energy resources

a video showing the creation of the universe

A simple lesson on the difference between asteroids comets and meteors, looks at missions to visit comets and asteroids and describing the orbit of a comet, all resources needed for the lesson are included in the powerpoint

A lesson on car safety, using a Kagan structure to look at car safety features and getting pupils to evaluate which one is best, all resources included within the powerpoint, i photocopy the first slide as a lesson starter

gets pupils thinking about breaking and stopping distances and the causes for car accidents through the medium of a CSI investigation

a set of worksheets i made on the origins of the universe it starts with a card sort about the evidence for the big bang and one other theory about the origin of the universe along with some questions to get pupils thinking about the big bang

A whole lesson structure around hookes law good for low ability or entry level, starts with a video and then gets students to design a bungee rope for a toy using elastic bands, the toy must bungee off a table hit a bowl of water and then bounce back up, they can test it first. Also included is the results table and some plenary questions to help with conclusions, and a way of scoring the jumps

A simple lesson about the moon landings for entry level - looks at footage from apollo and gets the pupils to sort evidence into for and against the moon landings then write a conclusion based on the evidence - all resources included

A selection of robot challenge sheets to help you run your own stem project ranging from easy to very hard and with suggestions for how to increase the difficulty, great for STEM clubs and projects or an end of term project can work with any robotics kits

the first half of the new AQA entry level science planning including the first component of physics, chemistry and biology should cover year 1 of teaching the course - including a lesson i developed that could be useful for a TDA and the long term plan for entry level that can be adapted.

A SOW that can be slotted into any curriculum and a blank student learning log that you can use for any STEM project, the objectives link to the CREST criteria as well so will help you decide if your students meet the criteria for a CREST award.

Schemes of work for the whole year of AQA planning for the new entry level science course, second year of planning - for all component 2’s

an end of term activity based on the science of lighthouses - pupils need to build a circuit to light the lighthouses, and then complete some other challenges - all resources needed are included in the powerpoint - i built the lighthouses from lego - build instructions included, and got pupils to choose where they would put them as well - you could build the lighthouses with other resources though

A crash testing experiment lesson we did using jelly babies as the crash test dummies, we built lego cars using the instructions added (these were built from a pick and mix selection at the lego store which cost £6 and built 6 cars), then added seatbelts (elastic bands), crumple zones (paper) and airbags (marshamllows large ones are best). All worksheets are included

A planning sheet I made for the film canister rocket experiment, which is a fun end of term activity, but this is an experiment planning sheet that can be edited and used for any experiment, I have made an easier and harder version. I intend to print it A3 and give it to the pupils, thereby making a ready made display.

a lesson that looks at forces through the use of movie special effects, to show how science is applied in real life. Pupils start with a demonstration of sugar glass (how to make instructions and video and video of it breaking included) they then go on to look at and label the forces involved in a fight (hence the judo) and finally apply there forces knowledge to storyboarding an action scene for a movie. It is fully differentiated for all pupils and comes with help labels for lower ability pupils.

An 8 week homework project for science, encompassing a range of tasks, from watching a science video and reviewing it to producing a revision card on a subject they have been studying. Can fit any year group and covers a range of subjects, vould be adapted for any other subect in school too, pupils hand in work as they complete it, so is easily tracked and activiely engages them in work, i tried this at my school and got significantly more homework handed in and some really creative pieces of work completed
