Have your students explore scientists throughout history with these colourful, interesting posters of scientists throughout the ages. Each of the 12 scientists in this bundle accomplished great things that helped to make the world what it is today.
Each file can be printed on paper up to A3 size, without any worries about losing quality of the image.
Perfect for decorating the lab and reminding your students of the diverse group of people that gave us the knowledge to get where we are today.
The 12 figures in this pack include:
Physics:
Albert Einstein - Famous for his theories on relatively.
Marie Curie - A pioneer in radioactive material research
Nikola Tesla - A driving force in the field of electronics.
Chemistry:
Mendeleev - Responsible for the periodic table we recognise today.
Cai Lun - Attributed with creating the first true paper in China.
Jabir Ibn-Hayyan - The legendary figure, known as the “Father of Chemistry”, reportedly responsible for producing the “aqua regis”.
Biology
Charles Darwin - The famous author of “Origins of Species”.
Alfred Wallace - Co-creator of the theory of Evolution.
Jane Goodall - A famous scientist who, working with chimpanzees, gained a whole knew understanding of interaction between organisms.
Mathematics
Pythagoras - Famous for his theory on Triangles, as well as not liking beans.
Mary Jackson - The first female African-American engineer for NASA, as seen in the recent movie, “Hidden Figures”.
Brahmagupta - An Indian mathematician, credited with creating the rules governing the use of “0” as a number in calculations.

More about the History in STEM practical Series
This series is designed to bring quality cross-curricula material to STEM subjects, that help students to explore and discover phenomena normally taught, while getting a glimpse into the history of its development.
In addition, a number of the practicals give the students the opportunity to play “Mythbusters”, looking at a number of different methods and having to reason why one or the other was the more likely or useful method.
From Ancient Greece to Vikings, China to the Golden age of the Muslim empire and beyond to India, the series takes a look at some of the most important STEM achievements throughout history.
There is a plan for 40 of these such practicals in this series, so, if you liked this one, consider looking at some of the others, or check out some of the bundles available.
What’s included:
Similar Triangles - History of STEM practicals - How Far Is That Boat?
Water Alarm Clock - History of STEM practicals - Pressure and Displacement
Viking Sunstones - History of STEM practicals - Refraction and Birefringence
Pythagoras’ Cup - History of STEM practicals - Siphon
Archimedes’ Eureka - History of STEM practicals - Density
Measuring the World - History of STEM Practicals - Circumference of Circles
Chemical Reactions - History of STEM practicals - Invisible Ink Practical
Statistics and Cryptography - History of STEM practicals - Crack the Code
Force and Tensile Strength - History of STEM practicals - Paper Part 1
Barometer - History of STEM Practicals - Pressure + Climate - Distance Learning
Practical 7 in the History in STEM practical series.
In this practical, you will be looking at the illusive history of invisible ink and the chemical reactions behind them. Have a look at the different methods used, beginning in Ancient Greece and continuing through history all the way through to modern times. Test their effectiveness in application, invisibility and ease of development, and decide for yourself, which of the methods you would choose. Finally, take your knowledge and apply it to working out the teachers secret message. Which method did they use? Use observations and clues to make your deductions and then test your hypothesis.
