This hands-on activity, aimed at students aged 11-14, will help students to understand how pathogens can make you ill. After a short role play activity, students answer the questions on the worksheet. This worksheet is part of a collection of materials based on...

This activity is a set of five puzzles relating to pie charts. The first three puzzles can be solved without the use of algebra. Each of the remaining two puzzles require students to write then solve a linear equation involving fractions. Students who complete the five puzzles are encouraged to write similar...

In this activity children are introduced to safe solar observation. Using everyday materials, the activity provides a step by step guide to create a safe sun viewer. A second activity investigates ‘sunspots’ and looks at how to use binoculars as a projector to see 'sunspots'. ‘Sunspots’ are areas of the sun which...

Teachers' guide 2 was written to pass on experience gained during trials of the materials in schools and colleges. The booklet includes case studies of centres that devised examination courses based on the materials as part of the Certificate of Extended Education (CEE...

This activity uses satellite images of the Earth to show how a glacier has changed over almost three decades. Children are asked to measure the glacier to find out how much it has changed in size and to compare false-colour images to suggest how this helps us find out more about environmental change. Guidance on...

With this simulation students can test the pH of everyday liquids such as coffee, spit, and soap to determine whether each is acidic, basic, or neutral. They can also investigate how adding more of a liquid or diluting with water affects pH. Sample learning outcomes include:

• Determine if a solution is...
