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

• Use a light microscope to make and record observations of a variety of cell types.
• Describe the common structures of eukaryotic cells and the functions of these structures.

This resource explores how 'Euler's characteristic' has had an impact on many aspects of real-life, from computing to the shape of a football. The has been created by the Royal Academy of Engineering in partnership with Tomorrow's Engineers as a STEM club or STEM Ambassador activity, but can also be adapted by...

This resource focusses on understanding density and, through a series of practical tests, working out which materials are low and high density. In this activity learners will learn about the density of materials through testing. Learners will have an opportunity to weigh and work out the volume of an object. They...

EuroStemCell, launched in March 2010, unites more than 90 European stem cell and regenerative medicine research labs in a coordinated effort to engage with the public about the science of stem cells.

Funded by the European Commission's Seventh Framework Programme (FP7), a partnership of scientists,...

These resources use the theme of football to link to STEM subjects and careers. Activities suitable for younger pupils are at the top of the list, and resources aimed at older students towards the end.

The European Space Agency have provided a range of purposeful and engaging activities to support learners across the Primary stage. These activities cover the Science, Maths, Design Technology, Computing and Topic curriculums through activities linked to life on Earth, our atmosphere and solar system and some even...

This collection contains a whole range of resources derived from ESA (European Space Agency) research. Many activities can be carried out as stand-alone lessons or mini projects in a STEM Club setting, as well as longer term student research projects ideal for EPQ purposes. There are many demonstrations to show...

European Universe Awareness (UNAWE) comprises a global network of almost 500 astronomers, teachers and educators. Providing a platform for sharing ideas, best practice and resources it aims to broaden children’s horizons beyond their local area and to show them that they are part of a global community. The...

This critical analysis activity for Core Maths students asks students to manipulate data to solve problems based on Eurovision Song Contest information from 2015’s competition.

Eurovision 2015: Overview
This teacher guidance gives an overview of the task including prior student...

In this resource from the DfE Standards Unit, students learn to distinguish between and interpret equations, inequations and identities and substitute into algebraic statements in order to test their validity in special cases. Students often use letters in algebra without understanding what they mean. Common...

In this resource from the DfE Standards Unit students learn to make valid generalisations about the effect of operations on directed numbers. It is helpful if students have already attempted to use directed quantities in contexts (e.g. money or temperature) before
attempting this session. In this session,...

In this resource from the DfE Standards Unit, students discuss and clarify some common misconceptions about probability. This involves discussing the concepts of equally likely events, randomness and sample sizes. They will also learn to reason and explain. This session assumes that learners have encountered...

In this DfE Standards Unit resource, students explore the relationship between linear and area enlargement, substitute into algebraic statements and discuss some common misconceptions about enlargement. Students will have covered some aspects of enlarging shapes before, but they may not have explored the...

In this resource from the DfE Standards Unit, students learn to understand concepts of length and area in more depth, revise the names of plane shapes, develop reasoning through considering areas of plane compound shapes and construct their own examples and counter-examples to help justify or refute conjectures....

In this resource from the DfE Standards Unit, students learn to understand the properties of number operations, substitute integers, fractions, decimals and negative numbers into statements and equations in order to test their validity and address common misconceptions about the effect of addition, subtraction,...
