A practical lesson suitable for primary science but can also be adapted for older students. Includes an introductory video, worksheet and assessment rubric that can be adapted to your curriculum objectives. I also include power points and info sheets on systems approach, great for topic 1 in Environmental systems or Ecology.

2 separate lessons on a case study about the interdependence of food webs that will really deepen students learning about this topic. Lesson 1 includes an introductory video and then an analysis of the different impacts of the introduction of wolves into the Yellowstone ecosystem. Students have to give examples and opinions of the impact from the point of view of different species affected. Lesson offers a review and quiz as well as an interactive activity on building food chains and webs that cements the learning established in lesson 1. A really interesting and interactive case study looking at real life examples to deepen the understanding of interdependence, suitable for top end primary or middle school but could be adapted for higher level learning.

Interactive lessons for teaching interdependence and adaptation, ecology, food chains and webs to top end of primary and middle secondary levels. Includes interactive lessons suitable for both the classroom, experiments or online learning. Lessons include : Polar Bears (insulating materials) Birds’ beaks - Study of Darwin and the Galapagos Penguins - Huddling experiment. Elephants ears - experiment activity Food chains and webs - interactive activity How wolves change rivers - a 2 part case study on Yellowstone Park. All lessons include worksheets/power points and an adaptable assessment/learning grid with key outcomes.

A unit on separating materials and chemical changes suitable for higher ages of primary or lower secondary. Includes 9 separate lessons all with help/answer sheets and some with supporting information slides. All lessons include an introduction with short video, experiment planning with question and variables, an experiment to complete with data collection (either observations/numerical data), a conclusion and analysis as well as review quizzes. There is also a summative assessment practical with written answers, quiz and mark scheme. Topics covered include - separation techniques, dissolving, reversible and irreversible changes, making a survival water filter, saturated solutions, energy in food, chromatography (separating colours), heating water and making crystals.
