Themed Packages

We have a number of standalone themed packages available. These can be installed on individual machines or a school network. The learning objects can also be imported into a Virtual Learning Environment (VLE). Each package contains Flash movies from ClickScience together with worksheets, assessments and extensive teaching notes. Click on a package to open it's flyer and find out more.

DIGESTION

• Explain how food is digested in the body and the role of each part of the digestive system.
• Model parts of the digestive system to build understanding.
• Discover the role of enzymes in digesting food.
• Investigate the properties of enzymes and factors affecting their properties.

ENERGY AND ENERGY TRANSFER

• Review what energy is and the different
types of energy.
• Learn about the laws of energy transfer and
conservation.
• Explain the different types of thermal energy
transfer and where they are likely to occur.
• Consider how thermal energy transfer can be
reduced from homes and the importance of
doing this.

EVOLUTION AND NATURAL SELECTION

• Learn about the scientific theory of evolution
but appreciate that alternative theories exist.
• Start to consider the evidence scientists put
forward to support the theory of evolution.
• Appreciate that several scientists suggested
ideas to explain changes in organisms over
time but it was Charles Darwin's theory of
natural selection that came to be adopted as
the best model.
• Consider how environmental pressures
might affect survival.
Discuss the validity of using simulations in
Science.

FORMULAE AND EQUATIONS

• Gain confidence in representing elements
and compounds as formulae.
• Describe reactions by writing both word and
symbol equations.
• Predict reaction products.
• Consider some of the applications of
chemical equations.

LIMESTONE

• Find out what limestone is, what it is made of
and how it forms.
• Consider the environmental effects of
quarrying limestone.
• Understand the importance of limestone as a
raw material.
• Explain how limestone can affect soil pH and
the conditions preferred by some plants.
• Learn about the reactions of limestone.

PRODUCING ELECTRICITY

• Investigate how a current can be induced
in a wire.
• Explore the magnetic force of a current.
• Develop an understanding of how generators
and motors work through practical
investigation.
• Consider the applications of generators
and motors.

TYPES OF CHEMICAL REACTION

• State whether a reaction is physical or chemical.
• Describe the nature of a range of chemical reactions.
