These resources were created in a collaborative project between the University of Bristol, and science teachers and educators in Bristol. They provoke thinking and discussion in science lessons to consolidate and extend core curriculum knowledge and understanding. The topics link to the KS3 National Curriculum.
The Thinking science resources come in the form of questions designed to provoke thinking and discussion on topics including physics, biology, chemistry, information technology, and working scientifically. They can be used by teachers in the classroom, assemblies, plenaries, tutor groups, and for homelearning to engage and enrich curriculum knowledge and understanding. Each topic comes with with questions and activity ideas to support curriculum needs, with teacher guidance to support delivery using the internationally recognised philosophy for children and communities (P4C) methodology.
