This is one of three documents to advise teachers about Citizen science. NOW WITH ADDED STUDENT SHEET This focuses on biology with two others featuring chemistry and physics. Citizen science in an increasingly important tool in classes where science is being taught. It means that students better understand the importance of science and the scientific process through an active involvement with the science community. The resource contains advice for teachers about using, reporting and publishing information about participation in Citizen Science projects. There are also web links to a range of projects. Different projects can be used for EACH year group. Suitable for students of all ages and across all curricula.

These resources have been designed to help schools achieve the Gatsby Benchmarks Particularly Number 4. Linking curriculum learning to careers All teachers should link curriculum learning with careers. For example, STEM subject teachers should highlight the relevance of STEM subjects for a wide range of future career paths. As schools seek ways of reaching the Gatsby Benchmarks, these documents will help subject teachers contribute in a way they have never done before. NCW 2019 Ofsted Careers Handbook Subject teachers may not be familiar with careers in their subject, indeed may never have considered it. Jobs available have changed radically since many teachers were trained. These resources are designed to help subject teachers update their knowledge on this topic. The resource contains ELEVEN documents: Over TWENTY Subject Specific Careers; Careers Choices is a simplified worksheet. Job Skills is for middle ability Subject Skills for higher ability students. This will make differentiation in the classroom easier. Detailed * Teacher Guidance* making suggestions for using the resource and differentiated worksheets for more able, average less able students about Skills needed in the workplace Creative idea for Jobs in the Future How to research ‘How to improve your skills’. An info grid listing Other career resources that might help you’. This is one of a series of fifteen packages which list careers that can be followed featuring the main subjects: Art, Biology, Chemistry, Computing, Drama, Design Technology, English, Humanities, Mathematics, Modern Foreign Languages, Music, Physical Education Physics, Science and STEM. There are also spreadsheets linking careers to modules taught for chemistry and physics.

These resources have been prepared for the International Women in Science Day. This year 11 February 2021.** NOW with five page teacher’s guide** There are four resources: women in biology; women in chemistry; women in medicine and women in physics (this one). The resource consists of a list of famous women in each field and a brief description of their achievements. There is also a sheet of questions which requires the students to research the work of the scientist and to consider their own attitudes to science. Plus a creative word cloud worksheet. The resource can be used during lessons, personal and social education times, for science fairs, in preparation for the Gatsby Benchmark or Science mark standards. The Nobel Prize in sciences have been awarded to women 58 times between 1901 and 2020. Only one woman, Marie Curie, has been honoured twice, with the 1903 Nobel Prize in Physics and the 1911 Nobel Prize in Chemistry. This means that 57 women in total have been awarded the Nobel Prize between 1901 and 2020.

The resource is in response to the current Coronavirus issue. It is a WORD CLOUD that can be printed out, laminated and put on notice boards. The wording of the World Health Organisation webpage was used to produce the word cloud. There is also an instruction sheet to enable teachers and students to make their own images with different topics, colours and shapes.
