Help pupils keep up and catch up! Independent research topics for children to learn about topics they are interested in. Structured templates for use by teachers and parents.
This is one of a range of guides for teachers supporting young people with a variety of Special Education Needs, especially those in mainstream classrooms. For example, autism, dyspraxia, visual and auditory impairment, moderate, severe and specific learning difficulties. Although the activities will also be useful to teachers in special schools.
There are templates and teaching guides for primary and secondary pupils.
There are six guides in the series:
Primary -Independent Research Projects using pictures (suitable for pupils with reading and communication difficulties)
** Primary -Independent Research Projects using sound apps to speak and listen (suitable for pupils with difficulties reading and writing)**
Primary - Independent Research Projects using kinaesthetic activities (suitable for AHDH, autism etc )
Secondary - Independent Research Projects using pictures (suitable for students with reading and communication difficulties)
Secondary- Independent Research Projects using sound apps to speak and listen (suitable for students with difficulties reading and writing)
Secondary - Independent Research Projects using kinaesthetic activities (suitable for AHDH, autism etc )
There are also primary and secondary BUNDLES available. These can be used as a whole school resource.
Digital literacy is increasingly important! This resource has two record cards for teachers to track students literacy and digital literacy from starting school to adulthood. This document has many uses and possibilities and can be used in all curriculum.
Distance learning has many benefits but students in mainstream classrooms may have additional needs to help them succeed. This resource is designed to help teachers find ways of supporting children with auditory needs, autism, dyscalculia, dyslexia, moderate learning difficulties, physical and visual needs.
During lockdown families benefited from engaging in family projects. Once back at school teachers can encourage them to continue. This resource provides a list of ideas across a range of subjects and age groups that teachers can use to do this. Topics include art and crafts, drama, music and science. Build on the increased awareness that parents have of their children’s learning.

Advice to parents
One post pandemic lesson we have learned is that learning online can be a global experience. We are all experiencing the same difficulties and have all had to adjust the way we learn and teach. Back at school we can capitalize on the benefits of distant asynchronous and synchronous learning. The spreadsheet provides a huge range of international opportunities for students across the age ranges. There is a guidance sheet for use provided. These ideas can be incorporated into a catchup curriculum! Think in terms of bridging courses between years and independent research projects over the school holidays or weekends.

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.
