Tools for science teachers

From this page you can access LESSON PLANS, WORKSHEETS, DATASHEETS and other tools for teaching energy as part of KS3 Science.

The resources are organised in relation to the QCA Schemes of work units.

The initial focus is on Unit 7I - Energy resources. More resources will be added throughout the lifetime of the LEEP project. Please tell us if we are getting the focus right for you and your teaching. Would you like help bringing global and sustainability issues into any particular aspects of teaching energy in science? Your feedback will help determine the focus for new resources.
