From the Centre for Science Education, and with support from Shell Education services, these materials help children to investigate forces and motion.
Water rockets can be made using plastic bottles and these are propelled by pressurised water. The rockets need to be launched in a suitable open area such as...
In this activity students consider the questions:
• What are the main sources that cause severe water shortage in Europe?
• How different harmful elements (e.g. fertilizers, gasoline, sulphuric acid) pollute freshwater?
• What methods / strategies can be used to save water?
• What methods...
This Nuffield Working with Science unit is substantially out of date but can suggest approaches for tackling related issues now. The intention was that students should become aware of the real problems of providing sufficient potable water for all our needs by the year...
This resource investigates the pollution of a local pond or lake by looking at the species which are able to live in it. Some species struggle to survive in polluted waters, while others are more tolerant. The resource may be used when teaching about animals in the local environment, habitats, water and improving...
London sewage treatment was developed to protect Londoners from water borne disease. Now the Thames Tideway tunnel is being built to help the sewage system cope with the rising London population. This lesson will allow students to conduct experimental work to model water treatment and have a chance to consider the...
This activity demonstrates the uptake and transport of water in plants. Plants take up water and nutrients through tiny tubes running the length of the plant. Using cut flowers and coloured water children investigate the way in which water is transported within plants through the process of transpiration.

This resource from the IET Faraday programme, supported by MEI and Tomorrow's Engineers, provides students the opportunity to explore the volume of water that passes through aqueducts.

Produced by The Centre for Industry Education Collaboration (CIEC), these resources help to put curriculum science in a real life context.
Children follow the use of water from a reservoir, through an industrial site where it is treated, used as cooling water, and treated again before being returned to a...
Water for Everyone Everywhere is a workshop designed to encourage pupils to explore the global challenges associated with access to safe and clean drinking water around the world. Pupils learn about the importance of water to people’s everyday lives and the role that engineering infrastructure plays in the...
Water for Everyone Everywhere is a hands-on enquiry based workshop that enables pupils to explore the global issues associated with water access and the role that engineering plays in water distribution. In the main activity, the general principles of how filters work are explained before a team activity to build...
This activity looks at water consumption on a local and global scale. Students learn about the main water contaminants and various methods of purification and the role of engineers and their approach to design challenges. The resource aims to inspire an interest in water conservation and to introduce students to...
The spacecraft that have orbited around Mars and landed on its surface have shown us (via images and data) that there is no liquid water on the surface of Mars. However, these satellite images have also revealed to us features that appear to have been created or carved out by flowing water. In fact, scientists feel...
Scientists must design and evaluate many ways of extracting water from the lunar permafrost before planning lunar colonies and manned missions using the moon as a base.
In this activity students will construct a solar water collector. Using the collector, students will collect and calculate the amount of...
In this lesson students look at the related concepts of pressure and force (pressure = Force/ Area), units used, measurement and how a large force can result from pressure acting over a given area. They will move from calculating the weight (under gravity) of a column of water or air to the pressure of this as...
