The parasites use a blood-sucking insect called a triatomine as an incubator and vector. The...

This resource consists of three pages of challenge cards. Each card contains eight challenges.

Challenge cards 1 asks students to calculate the number of triangles in a shape, the least number of colours required to colour a shape, how to measure exactly 4 gallons using a 5 gallon and a 3 gallon jug, a...

From the YWCA, this leaflet describes how the organisation offers an alternative curriculum that tackles a wide range of topics such as career choices, gender stereotypes, assertiveness and confidence, in order to help young women to make informed choices about the work they do.

Chameleon bubbles are formed when a sodium alginate solution is dropped into a calcium chloride solution.  The bubbles are filled by an acid‐base indicator solution; so, adding the beads to acids or bases leads to colour changes inside the bubbles by diffusion and pH change. Students can learn about acids, bases,...

Work done in this Nuffield 13 - 16 module followed from the D unit called ‘Particles at work’. This D unit provided enough material for eight double periods during a Further Science course and built on the content of the S units for Single Science. The teachers’ guide...

Work done in this Nuffield 13 - 16 module followed from the B unit called ‘Senses’. This X unit provided enough material for eight double periods. It could be selected to complete either a Science or a Further Science course. The teachers’ guide included three...

In this activity students are required to interpret information contained in a series of graphs to investigate the claim that “Changes in the land biosphere since 1970 are consistent with global warming: climate zones have shifted poleward in both hemispheres, and the growing season has on average lengthened by up...

These diagnostic questions and response activities (contained in the zip file) support students in being able to:

• Calculate momentum using p = m x v.
• Describe what happens to the motion of objects colliding head on. 
• Determine changes in momentum, Δp.         
• Explain and use...

This resource highights the impact of human activity on glaciers and sea ice in the Arctic and Antarctic using four different student activities:

1. Students explain the reason, using their knowledge of global warming, for 4 changes seen in changes and forecasts for the Polar regions.
2. Students...
