A fact sheet from the Geological Society that explores different types of mining and processing techniques for extracting minerals from the Earth. The leaflet also touches on some of the ethical and environmental issues involved in mining.
This Nuffield Working with Science unit was designed to develop simple skills of mineral testing and identification and a broad view of the subject of mining and minerals.
Guidance for teachers and technicians appears...
A Year Ten module from the Salters’ double award science course. The module begins with a survey of minerals world wide and their constituent elements. This provides opportunities for practice with symbols, formulae and equations. A practical simulation of geological...
Read the letter from Nick Gibb MP and Jo Johnson MP that launched the Core Maths qualifications in September 2015.
In this practical activity, from the Royal Institution, students use paired mirrors to investigate repeated reflections and the symmetrical properties of certain polygons. Based on observations made about these symmetries, students then look at how the mirrors and reflections allow them to deduce the angles in...
The Teaching Primary Science book Mirrors and magnifiers describes activities which can be carried using these materials at any age. The book pays attention to problems such as holding mirrors upright and choosing and using hand lenses. Teaching methods are discussed...
This resource contains six activities.
[b]Find[/b]: Contains twenty five questions requiring students to use number properties to find numbers which fit the required criteria. An example is: find three consecutive numbers which when multiplied together make 2184.
[b]Converting Units[/b]: Requires...
This video explains why objects of different masses fall at the same rate towards the ground.
A heavy medicine ball is dropped at the same time and from the same height as a lighter basket ball. They both hit the ground at the same time.
Although the medicine ball has a greater force on it, its...
This video shows the types of common misconceptions people have about heat. A book and a metal object, that are the same temperature, are held by people. They all say the metal object is colder. Using an IR thermometer, it is proved that a cake and its metal container are the same temperature as they are removed...
This video considers the misconceptions people have about heat. Most people believe that something that feels hotter to the hand must be at a higher temperature. However, this is not always the case. We do not feel temperature, rather we feel the rate at which heat is conducted towards or away from our hands. Two...
This video introduces the Hubble sphere and how the rate of expansion of space can be used to explain how we see very distant objects that are travelling faster than light. The limitation to the observable universe is the particle horizon (where the time is too great for light to have reached the Hubble horizon)....
These Key Stage Three National Strategy training materials from the Department for Education are designed to run a session with science teachers to help them: *identify commonly held misconceptions (alternative conceptions, alternative frameworks) *establish the importance of models and analogies *identify...
Two proof-readers are checking separate copies of the same manuscript. They each find a different number of errors. The number of errors found by both is given and the task is to calculate how...
This resource contains five activities in which students are presented with a situation in which a digit, a number or an operator is missing. Students are required to complete the calculation.
Missing Digits 1: Students are presented with a series of two digit column additions and...
