Resources by Rolls-Royce

Electrical Circuits

Within this activity pupils are given the opportunity to revise and revisit their knowledge of electricity and circuits before applying this to designing and building a moving electric plane. Throughout the activity pupils will be encouraged to add 2-3 electrical components including a motor, lights and a buzzer....

Everyday Materials

This science activity gives pupils the opportunity to test everyday materials in the real life context of designing and make a plane. Pupils are given the chance to test on a range of materials and sort them into groups based on which part of a plane they would be most suited to. This resource is part of a series...

Exploring and Programming

This computing activity introduces pupils to algorithms, gives them the opportunity to programme bee-bots and to use an internet search engine to find information, pictures and sounds. Pupils will build on their Year 1 computing knowledge throughout the activity and are able to work as part of a small team. This...

EYFS - ACCEL Rolls-Royce

This collection of STEAM activities give EYFS pupils the opportunity to explore a variety of vehicles and uncover how they travel and move. Pupils can design and create their own moving vehicles, learn all about electric plane travel and try to break world records. This varied selection of activities have been...

Food as Fuel

Produced by Rolls-Royce, this resource aimed at Key Stage Two looks at the importance of food as a fuel for activity and growth and about the importance of an adequate and varied diet. Children are asked to compare the amount of energy different kinds of foods provide and to consider which foods to choose in...

Forces Air Resistance

In the STEAM activity pupils will use their understanding of air resistance to design and make a parachute for a pilot. Pupils will use a range of materials and test their parachutes before recording and analysing the data. This resource is part of a series of resources produced by Rolls Royce and covers key areas...

Forces and Air Resistance

Aimed at Key Stage Two this resource, produced by Rolls-Royce contains five activities related to the topic area of forces. Children look at friction, how the force of air resistance affects moving objects, pushing and pulling and directions in which forces act. Each activity includes worksheets and teacher...

Forces and Magnets

The first activity in this resource gives pupils the opportunity to demonstrate working scientifically by designing and testing a chair for a pilot with limited time, budget and resources. This activity will support pupils understanding that engineers have to design, test and redesign in order to get things right,...

Fuels

Produced by Rolls-Royce, this resource supports the teaching materials and their properties at Key Stage Two. It looks at irreversible changes and the formation of a new material by burning. Children are asked to consider different types of transport and the fuel that is used to make them work. They also list...

In this video, from Rolls-Royce, students can see what it is like to work in a company that develops and manufactures high technology products. The video includes comments and descriptions from a group of young people visiting Rolls-Royce.
