This set of resources are based on Birmingham Institute of Forest Research (BiFoR) work. The activities provide an innovative way to introduce the issues surrounding the estimation of biomass. For pupils aged between 11 and 14 there are engaging activities to introduce the concept of biomass and pyramids of biomass...
Students compare the water quality at different points in a stream or river using the standard procedure for finding the Trent Biotic Index score for samples of freshwater invertebrates. The test was developed by the Trent River authority to detect water pollution. It allows comparisons of water quality to be made...
Produced by Science & Plants for Schools (SAPS), in this investigation, students look at the concentration of glucose in isotonic sports drinks. This enables students to see if the drinks are, in fact, isotonic with the blood.
In this investigation, students first produce a standard curve by testing...
This resource begins with estimating by rounding to significant figures, then deals with estimations and predictions in real life scenarios. Fermi estimation is then introduced. The question ‘Is climate change happening?’ is also posed.
...Produced by Science & Plants for Schools (SAPS), this investigation looks at the effects of ethene of fruit ripening.
Ethene is a colourless gas and is produced by plants, acting as a plant growth substance. Its...
