Inspire
The materials in this collection have been developed by the Centre for Science Education to support the network of Inspire science clubs. The materials are activities which can be used to enrich the curriculum, as part of a science club activity, or to help primary school children to understand scientific concepts. The activities explore curriculum science such as forces, motion, electricity, floating, sinking, changing materials and light.
The activities include:
* Balancing Clowns
* Water Rockets
* Steady Hand Games
* Periscopes
* Matched Pair Games
* Kaleidoscopes

Copper Plating
From the Centre for Science Education, and with support from Shell Education services, these materials help children to see how electricity can be used to split the components of a solution (copper sulfate).
Graphite pencils are used for electrodes and the process is called electrolysis. It is commonly used...
Elastic Band Rollers
From the Centre for Science Education, and with support from Shell Education services, these materials help children to investigate forces and motion as well as making their own elastic band powered vehicle.
This activity is a variation on the 'cotton reel tank'. The elastic band roller is easy to make and...

Growing Crystals
From the Centre for Science Education, and with support from Shell Education services, these materials help children to grow large crystals using salt solution. The crystals take about a week to grow. This activity gives children the opportunity to consider processes such as: * changing materials and that changes...
Hot Air Balloons
From the Centre for Science Education, and with support from Shell Education services, these materials help children to explore ideas related to forces, gravity, flight and density.
By using large sheets of tissue paper and a template, a simple hot air balloon can be constructed. The balloon will then rise...
