From the Integrating Mathematical Problem Solving project by Mathematics in Education and Industry (MEI), this activity shows how changing the price of a product changes the demand so putting the price up can reduce income. Modelling helps decision making. The mathematical ideas covered are:
• Percentage...

In this resource from the European Space Agency, students design and develop an entire space mission to Mars. The objective of the mission is to send a programmed LEGO rover to the surface of the Red Planet to study changes in state of water. Students take temperature measurements and interpret the data collected...

By constructing a model of the constellations in the zodiac, students can learn about the relative motion of the Sun and the Earth. Students can find their own star sign and discover how the view from the Earth will change as the Earth orbits the Sun. The model allows them to see how the night sky changes over a...

This Nuffield Primary Science book consists of 11 colourful, and highly illustrated, double-page spreads aimed at students aged 9-12. The book ends with a glossary and index.

This resource contains six activities that link to Living Things and their Habitats, these resources are designed for use with mixed age groups classes of Year 3 and 4. Activities include:

• undertaking a habitat survey in their local environment, exploring the impact of human activity on a range of...

This Cape Farewell video clip shows that phytoplankton and zooplankton have a crucial place in the Arctic food chain which is highly sensitive to change. The Cape Farewell scientists need to study plankton to understand how they respond to global climate change.

This collection of resources for primary and secondary aged pupils have been created to inspire pupils about topics linked to the work of the Environment Agency such as water, biodiversity and the impact of climate change.  ...

Work done in this Nuffield 13 - 16 module followed from the B unit called ‘What do plants use for food’ and the S unit ‘Food chains and webs’. This X unit provided enough material for eight double periods. It could be selected to complete either a Science or a Further...

These videos highlight the problems caused by flooding in the developing world, and show how Practical Action works with local communities to help reduce the impact of future floo...

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

• Identify abiotic and biotic components of an ecosystem.
• Recognise that there are different environmental conditions in different ecosystems, and this affects what lives there....

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

• Categorise everyday observations of change.

• Distinguish examples of physical change from chemical changes.

• Explain observations of a chemical...

The video asks students to predict when a bungee jumper experiences maximum acceleration.  The answer is at the very bottom of the jump.  This is often counter-intuitive as the velocity at this point is almost zero. 

However, acceleration is the rate of change of velocity over time, a = ^Δv/_Δt...

The activities in this pack provide hands-on activities that are engaging, inexpensive and suitable for science clubs.  The theme of the pack is change, and contents include:
