What are they?

Each resource contains accessible and engaging activities on a range of topics and exciting careers links to support teachers in raising awareness of STEM related careers, as well as mathematics challenges to demonstrate the relevance of mathematics across all subject areas. There are two resources linked to each book so that they can be used both in a classroom setting and independently by students in their own homes. 

Who are they for?

Aimed at key stage 1 and 2 students, the resources support the science, mathematics and computing curricula at primary level. They could also be used to support older students with special educational needs and disabilities. The experiments and activities have been designed to be used in a range of settings, from school science labs, to library clubs and at home. They can be incorporated into lessons or used independently as STEM club activities.
