Using spellings of familiar words this Barefoot Computing unplugged computing activity for younger primary children introduces algorithms as rules that are followed, and which may require decisions and exceptions. From the Barefoot Computing project, this short lesson asks children to deduce spelling rules uses...
This series of three lesson activities uses Scratch to create animations that tell a story, and can link to studies in English.
A starter Scratch file partially tells the story of the Great Fire of London. Additional resources are provided allowing children to improve the animation.
Using some short...
In this first activity of the Superpillars Assemble, pupils watch a video to learn about butterflies, moths and their habitats and the threat posed by humans and other predators. They also learn various movements to perform the caterpillar dance with an optional mask children can decorate and wear. Through a...
This curriculum linked resource, for primary children and their teachers, is based on the exciting real-life launch of the Euclid space telescope. Through simple models and practical activities, the children are introduced to the work of space scientists seeking to discover more about our universe.
The...
In this lesson aimed at lower primary, children find out about the uses of light bulbs, other than providing light. Children work scientifically observing, comparing and contrasting the features of different light bulbs and sorting them into groups according to similarities and differences. They then work as ‘light...
This resource focusses on the making of a simple sundial which can be housed within the school grounds. This interactive and practical activity can be used to support learning of telling the time and to understand how light creates shadows. In this activity pupils will learn how to use the Sun to tell the time. ...
This activity has been designed to connect primary teachers, pupils and schools with staff from a wide range of job and career roles in the Environment Agency. It is guidance on how an Environment Agency STEM Ambassador can talk to children to inspire them with their enthusiasm for their role at the Environment...
This resource focusses on exploring shape, nets, wheels and axles. This activity uses pupil’s prior knowledge of nets to make a base for a vehicle. It then introduces the use of axles and wheels to enable the car to move. It could be used at key stage 1 to develop understanding of the use of axles and wheels in...
In this activity children take on the role of Earth observation scientists submitting a request for an image they would like for their research. This gives them the opportunity to consider the possibilities of pictures taken from orbit (and the limitations) and to write scientifically for a specific audience. It...
This Barefoot Computing activity for lower primary children uses simple sequences of instructions to explore a world map. They use logical reasoning to predict the outcome of instructions that are 'programmed' into a simple game, made using Scratch 2. Children learn about the continents by guiding a simple robot...
In this activity children are introduced to a challenge: setting up a yoghurt cafe. They then learn to name and recognise a range of 2D shapes and then use their learning to design a logo for their business.
This is the first in a series, which involves lessons which look at healthy eating, D&T parts of...
In this activity children learn to name a variety of fruit plants and trees and label their parts. They then explore a range of fruit seeds and describe their properties using comparative language.
This is the second in a series of activities where children work towards an end goal of setting up a yoghurt...
In this activity children think about eating healthily and the nutrients included in each food group. Using this learning, they are then challenged to use a range of seasonal fruit to design a food flag yoghurt that they can sell in their yoghurt cafés.
This is the third in a series of activities where...
In this activity children create their fruit flag yoghurt that they have designed, using the ingredients that they have chosen. As well as practising cutting, measuring and mixing skills children can apply maths skills in a real-life context. This is the fourth in a series of activities where children work towards...
