These diagnostic questions and response activities (contained in the zip file) support students in being able to:

• Explain the difference between distance and displacement, and between speed and velocity.
• Calculate displacement and velocity for one-dimensional motion.   
• Calculate...

These diagnostic questions and response activities (contained in the zip file) support students in being able to:

• Read values of speed or velocity off a speed-time or velocity-time graph, and interpret the meaning of a negative velocity.
• Describe the motion of an object from a velocity-time...

From the Science and Technology Facilities Council (STFC), this wall chart describes the space mission to Venus, the UK experiments aboard, and the extreme conditions on the surface of Venus. In addition to mission details, the resource describes properties of Venus and the conditions found on the surface of the...

A Catalyst article about the European Space Agency (ESA) which has sent the Venus Express spacecraft to explore Earth's cloudy neighbour. The purpose of the project, which is primarily to gather information about the atmosphere around Venus, is explained and is put into context with concerns about climate change on...

Purpose: Providing students with verbal feedback on their work avoids problems some students encounter when interpreting written comments. Using digital technology to record and then provide access to verbal feedback saves the teacher valuable lesson time and can be replayed by the student at will.

This video demonstrates a simple experiment to investigate the principle of moments.

A selection of films suitable for use in the classroom presented by Derek Muller the from the ever popular Veritasium YouTube channel . 

Aimed at primary level, the activities within this pack demonstrate key ideas and concepts used in designing and constructing buildings such as: how levers and pulleys work, the properties of materials and the forces involved in different structures. Activities include: making a lever to lift a grown up, making...

Work done in this Nuffield 13 - 16 module followed from the B units called ‘Energy’ and ‘Seeing and light’. This D unit provided enough material for eight double periods during a Further Science course and built on the content of the S units for Single Science. The...

Physicists are involved in a wide range of activities, including electronics, energy, space, transport, medicine and materials. Their work can involve designing and conducting experiments, simulating real-life problems and conditions in laboratories, or making a series of observations which are written up in...

Through this challenge, pupils will have the opportunity to explore and understand the everyday life of the Victorians. Pupils will have the opportunity to identify potential problems/areas of Victorian life where an invention could be useful and to use drawing, writing and speech to communicate their invention to...

Purpose: Recording a video clip of motion or colour change is an effective means of generating data, but video can also be created to communicate the methods and findings of a practical science activity.

Teaching approach: Still images, and video clips can be imported into a video editing app, where they can...
