This report from Ofsted on primary science is the last in the series published by Ofsted over several years, based on evidence from whole school inspections and surveys by HMI. It draws on data from Ofsted inspections from September 2003 to July 2005.

The report also reflects upon changes since Ofsted...

This simulation demonstrates how Ohm's law relates to a simple circuit. The voltage and resistance can be adjusted to see how this affects the current. The sizes of the symbols in the equation change to match the circuit diagram.

This worksheet explores Ohm’s law. It provides students with an overview of the relationship between current, voltage and resistance. It also provides a reminder of how to calculate total resistance when resistors are in parallel or series circuits. The questions have worked examples, examiners top tips and answers...

The aim of this investigation is to see the variation of current with applied voltage for two bulbs and compare with Ohm’s Law.  The ones recommended here are a 12V lamp and a small neon bulb.  You can then plot graphs of resistance against voltage to compare the two.

This Catalyst article looks at oil production in Trinidad and Tobago. The oil refining process and method are explained. The article also investigates the resulting human impact on the environment.

This article is from Catalyst: GCSE Science Review 2003, Volume 13, Issue 4.

The activities in this book tell a simple story of oil, beginning with its recovery from beneath the seabed, to its use as a lubricant and fuel. They are written for use with five- to seven- year olds, though can be adapted for use with other children, and can be incorporated into topic work on liquids or materials...

This catalyst article looks at how scientists have analysed the isotopes of uranium in rocks in Gabon (W Africa) and shown that, for thousands of years in the distant past, a nuclear fission reaction occurred.
