One of a series of resources from Science & Plants for Schools (SAPS) investigating key topics in plant biology. A simple yet accurate protocol looking at the results of the enzyme catalase. Catalase is a widespread enzyme, protecting the cell from toxic effects of hydrogen peroxide by catalysing its...
These investigations from Subtangent help to develop a systematic approach but require students to use their own recording methods. They can be used as a whole class introduction to an investigation or as individual tasks. As these investigations are open ended and students can make their own decisions as to the...
These AMP activities are accessible to all secondary students. Around half the activities are abstract investigations and half are practical explorations set in realistic contexts. Suitability for group work, required equipment, key mathematical features, extension opportunities, etc. are touched on in the teachers...
This resource, from the University of Nottingham, describes a number of investigations which could be carried out in heathland habitats. Heathlands are excellent habitats to use for designing and carrying out experiments. Plants are often relatively easy to identify when compared with other habitats and...
These two books from the Shell centre focus on the pure investigations. The pure investigation tasks are, perhaps, rather different from the other two main types of extended task, those of a practical nature and those of an applied nature, in the sense that they allow...
Purpose: As students progress through secondary science they will develop an understanding of waves as a means of transferring energy. Practical science activities around the study of sound are often used as a basis for understanding features of waves such as wavelength, frequency and amplitude. Digital technology...
This is the first book in the series of investigations from Spectrum Maths. It was intended to be suitable for those students working at National Curriculum levels one to three. The forty student investigations in this book are non-sequential and focus mainly on the mathematical topics of addition, subtraction,...
This maths activity gives pupils the opportunity to learn about aerodynamics and apply this knowledge to designing and making a paper plane. Pupils will apply their maths skills of data collection and measurement to record the test flights and reflect on the most successful plane. Opportunities for extension are...
This maths activity will give children the opportunity to explore thrust by creating windmills and recording data from test flights. Pupils will accurately measure, compare and record numbers in a group activity and further their understanding through key questions. This resource is part of a series of STEAM...
GAIM Activities are open-ended tasks where achievements in using and applying mathematics can be assessed alongside content. In the investigations students explore pure mathematics.
GAIM provides teachers with 80 Activities (40 Investigations and 40 Practical Problems) as a resource for teaching and...
The third book in the Investigations series from Spectrum Maths was aimed at students in the upper stages of primary schools who were working at levels three to six. Each of the forty investigations has a teachers’ page followed by the student sheet. The information for the teacher includes the National Curriculum...
These are science resources will encourage and enable students to get involved with practical science. A wide selection of materials is presented within each resource, allowing a teacher to tailor the activities for a specific group of students.
The resources in this section are:
*Coastline Protection...
This brief resource provides five ideas for investigating the effects of eutrophication on aquatic plant life. Each activity is based on setting up a range of solutions with increasing amounts of minerals and following the growth of aquatic plants. The resource offers suggestions of how the mineral content could be...
Produced by the Health Protection Agency and e-Bug, these practical investigations use readily available resources and will help students to understand the topic of microbes and their growth.
The investigations include:
* Kitchen investigators - where can you find the most microbes in your kitchen?...
This resource supports students in carrying out independent investigations. It helps them to choose, plan, carry out and write up an in-depth scientific investigation.
