This resource pack focuses of the force of buoyancy and includes a series of 4 lessons and all the resources needed to teach them. There are also additional activities that can be incorporated into the programme of study. Lesson 1 - a recap of forces, testing pupils prior knowledge and filling in any gaps with practical demonstrations and video clips Lesson 2 -introduction to buoyancy with 2 practical investigations for pupils Lesson 3 - an investigation into the buoyancy of drinks cans Lesson 4 - designing and testing a boat Some of the presentations contain links to videos on YouTube (they are not my property so I couldn't upload them here). If you can't get YouTube in your school consider ripping the videos onto your hard-drive to use, there are several pieces of software, or websites, where this can be done free of charge. Please feel free to adapt the resources as you see fit, they have all being uploaded in editable formats. If you find the resources useful please comment on TES and share them with other teachers.

A set of resources for teaching energy aimed at upper primary or early secondary. Lesson 1 covers: What is Energy? Why is it important? Different forms of Energy Lesson 2 covers: Energy conservation and transformation/transfer of energy There is an activity where pupils match energy examples to the form of energy and a worksheet for pupils to make their own transformation/transfer pathways. You might find the following documents useful to support your understanding of how energy works: https://www.stem.org.uk/elibrary/resource/29858/strengthening-teaching-and-learning-of-energy-secondary-national-strategy http://www.gla.ac.uk/media/media_217157_en.doc http://www.lancsngfl.ac.uk/nationalstrategy/ks3/science/files/TeachingAboutEnergy(RobinMillar).pdf http://www.wiley.com/legacy/Australia/PageProofs/SQ8_AC_VIC/c10_TransferringAndTransformingEnergy_WEB.pdf

Two lessons to teach pupils about meteorites, asteroids and comets and the differences between them. It includes information about the Solar System as well as information about specific meteorites. These lessons were put together when we borrowed a set of meteorites from STFC as part of the Tim Peake Project in 2016 - most of the resource is adaptable for teaching the concept without the set of meteorites. Introduction to meteorites, asteroids and comets Meteorite Craters + activity Meteorite crater recording sheet
