Students can work individually, or in pairs to cross out terms as you pull them out of a jar (teacher sheet provided). When a card has a straight line of called out terms, either horizontally, vertically or diagonally, then the participant/s calls out “Bingo”. First participant/s to have an accurate filled out score card with a straight line is the winner. As a follow up, students can take the key vocabulary used in the bingo and write out definitions in their books for later use as a reference guide for upcoming lessons.

Water Alarm Clock - History of STEM practicals - Pressure and Displacement

Water Alarm Clock - History of STEM practicals - Pressure and Displacement

(0)
Note: This would be a great followup practical after completing your Pythagoras Cup. Practical 5 in the History in STEM practical series. In this practical we are looking at the humble beginnings of the alarm clock. This version is based on a design believed to be used by Plato, to make sure he got up on time. It teaches a number of concepts, such as siphons, as well as displacement and air pressure. It takes the principle of the cup and applies it in a new way. When the water siphons into the vessel, it displaces the air out, forcing it through a whistle, causing it to sound. You can tweak the practical to have the time it takes for the alarm to go off, to suit whatever purpose you like. This is probably more than a single lesson practical, but might be a good collaborative project. Bring the Arts department in to get some cool decorations for the clock. Get the history team to talk about Plato and the philosophers of ancient Greece and turn this practical into a real cross curriculum event. 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.

Build a Telescope - History of STEM practicals - History of Astronomy

(0)
Practical 26 in the History in STEM practical series. In this practical the students will be able to build their own telescopes using equipment available available for less than 5 dollars. They will be even able to make their own lenses, upcycling plastic bottles. This package includes an experiment printout with an introduction including a history of astronomy pre and post invention of the telescope. The practical can be done in a 60-90 minute lesson or split up over multiple lessons if needed. If you want, they could even take the telescope home for further investigation/homework tasks to extend the use of the project.

Solar System Model Practical - History of STEM practicals - Round the World

(0)
Practical 23 in the History in STEM practical series. This practical, “Round the World” is a chance for the studens to build a model solar system that they can use to make mathematical calculations with. Start with a history of how the current heliocentric model was developed, before having the students use simple tools and materials (pencils, glue, scissors, cardboard boxes and rubber bands), to build a moving model of Earth, Venus and Mercury around the Sun. Then, have the students use the model to calculate ratios of year length, before finally analysing the models strength and weaknesses, with a research task to compare the year length calculated for Mercury and Venus, with that of the accepted values by the broader scientific community. This combines history, physics and mathematics and art all in one lesson. Includes diagrams and tips for the teacher for alternative ways to approach the task depending on time and skill level of the students. Also includes a print out template for the students to glue to the cardboard for easy cutting and for decoration of the model.

Free Fall Part 2 - History of STEM practicals - The Slow Roll

Free Fall Part 2 - History of STEM practicals - The Slow Roll

(0)
Practical 21 in the History in STEM practical series. This practical, “The Slow Roll” takes a look at two classic experiments completed by Galileo in order to “prove” that a falling object does in fact accelerate when it falls. The most difficult object to get will be a ramp long enough for the test, however, I have used cardboard shipping tubes (for posters and the like) in the past to great success. This practical is also great because it gives the students another way to measure time, getting them to think outside the box of what can be used to take measurements and even to get accurate results. This is a practical they will be sure to remember.
