Produced by The Centre for Industry Education Collaboration (CIEC), the activities in this resource allow students to examine science concepts applicable to the healthcare industries and the work of people in the sector.

The activities in the resources cover areas that include:
* Determination of the...

Recent headlines point out a 400 % rise in rickets and other bone diseases as young people spend more and more time indoors. Recent UK health guidance recommends that everyone should consider taking a daily vitamin D supplement, particularly in autumn and winter. In this activity students make a personal decision...

This new curriculum resource from CensusAtSchool is presented at two levels of difficulty. This idea is relatively current as it links with the 'Da Vinci code' and the theory of the Vitruvian man as put forward by Leonardo da Vinci (1452–1519).

This activity shows how Earth observation can be used to study human geography by comparing the satellite images of Las Vegas over the last few decades. Linking to measurement of irregular areas and addition and multiplication of fractions, it asks children to measure the area of Las Vegas at three separate times...

Voice Your Choice is an innovative, ready-to-go, resource produced by Botanic Gardens Conservation International (BCGI) which engages students at key stage three in debate on conservation of animal and plant species. A scenario is set and students are divided into groups to investigate the reasons for saving a...

This resource explores what volcanoes are and some of their key features. Students will learn why volcanoes erupt and the difference between effusive and explosive eruptions as well as understanding the effects magma viscosity can have on lava flows and eruptions by conducting experiments to test the impact of...

In this resource pupils will learn that volcanoes are openings in the Earth’s rocky surface and can be active, dormant or extinct. They will learn about the structure of a volcano, how volcanoes form and different types of eruption then create their own erupting volcano using washing-up liquid, bicarbonate of soda...

Volcanoes can be found on many planets and satellites in the Solar System, although not all volcanoes are the same as those found on Earth. It is the conditions on the planet and its composition that determine the shape of the volcanoes and the material that is erupted.

Students will use topography data to...

This MEP resource from CIMT is taken from text book 7B which covers the mathematics scheme of work for the second half of year 7. Volume covers the concept of volume, the volume of a cube, the volume of a cuboid, capacity, density and the volume of a triangular prism. The initial file forms part of the textbook....

Published by BEAM this resource contains 21 activity cards on volume and capacity, which allow children to develop their mathematical skill by actively estimating, measuring and comparing capacity and volume. Developed by teachers, the cards help find a way of teaching which fits with the way children learn...

WEAR asks us to investigate the issues of the fashion industry. Are we too wasteful, throwing clothes away once they've been worn a few times? Do we care who's making our clothing and how much they're being paid? How does our clothing represent who we are and what we have to say?

What if we could all...
