Resources for 5-11

Designed to enrich teaching and bring the subject to life as well as encourage children to think about the importance of STEM subjects to our everyday lives.

We understand that it is vitally important to encourage children to explore the world around them and develop a sense of curiosity. 

The national Curriculum for Science in England and Wales includes topics on materials, minerals and earth science from year 1 to year 6 and our resources have been put together to bring these subjects to life.

We have a range of worksheets that you can download and use in the classroom along with suggestions of materials to help you to build your own handling collection.
