This Nuffield Primary Science Teachers’ Guide for teaching the Living Things in their Environment topic, to students aged 7-12, is divided into five chapters:

*Chapter 1: Introduction - covering useful strategies, the...

Explorers need strong bones so they can face the physical challenges placed on their bodies while in space. The longer astronauts are in the environment of space, the weaker their bones become due to a lack of loading forces. Bones below the waist are most affected by reduced gravity environments, and the bones...

These Six for Six activities support pupils to understand that they live in a world driven by advances in technology, engineering or manufacturing principles. The teacher notes below offers an overview of the six modules offered by Siemens to enhance the KS2 Science and Design Technology curriculums. 

This resource provides a selection of lesson plans, worksheets and teachers notes relating to living things and their habitats at Year Six. They include activities which look at the history of classification of living things, studying the binomial system introduced by...

This resource provides a selection of lesson plans, worksheets and teachers notes relating to Living Things and their Habitats at Year Five. They include activities in which children learn about the life cycles of flowering and non-flowering plants. They also look at...

Have you ever travelled on a large vehicle ferry? How are the vehicles loaded? Why do you think it matters which vehicles go on first or where they are put on the car deck?If you are loading cargo (into a rucksack, onto a boat, onto ...

This lesson goes into more detail about the specific Apollo missions that returned the Lunar samples in this kit. It also combines coordinate systems with high resolution Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter images to challenge students to locate the lunar landing sites and hardware that was left behind on the surface of...

This resource consists of 12 instant maths ideas, ideal for use as starter questions, extension question or probing questions to assess understanding, providing students with the opportunity to explore loci and constructions using physical activities, by solving problems such as the goat and the shed problem,...

This book, which forms part of the weaving series from the Nuffield Mathematics Project, is an introduction to logic in a very general sense.

Its main aim was to help students aged from about 8 to 12 to think clearly...

This SMILE resource contains four packs of games, investigations, worksheets and practical activities supporting the teaching and learning of logic and sets, from simple sorting activities to solving logic puzzles.

...

Combining maths and computational thinking, this Barefoot Computing activity for upper primary uses linear number sequences to introduce algorithms in computing. Children work collaboratively to apply logical thinking and pattern recognition - key concepts used across the Barefoot Computing project. While using...

This activity combines computing and maths to look at algorithms. Children are challenged to solve missing number problems in number sequences, using logical reasoning. Additional challenges are then presented, and children are asked to share not just the answer, but the approach they took to solving the problem...

This collection contains resources from the website 1001mathproblems.com by Sian Zelbo. The focus is on using logical reasoning in calculations, algebra and geometry.

The aim of this resource is to give students the opportunity to investigate how the RAF use science, technology, engineering and mathematics skills when planning a mission. Students will use maths to work out how to pack an aircraft effectively.

Welsh versions of the guidance documents are included.

The London Curriculum uses the capital as inspiration to bring the national curriculum to life at key stages 2 and 3.  Each unit focuses on a theme linked to London and contains lesson plans and activity ideas to support teaching in many subjects across the curriculum. Though based around London, many of the lesson...
