Species Bingo (Age 7 to 11)

This is a Bingo activity from Arkive which can be used outside the classroom. Children are asked to circle living things they see on their sheet whilst on a field trip or nature walk. If they get four in a row they can shout 'Bingo'. This leads to a discussion on where the different species were found which can...

Specific heat capacity

These diagnostic questions and response activities (contained in the zip file) support students in being able to:

• Describe how the sensation of hotness is caused by vibrating particles.
• Describe the mechanism of thermal conduction that can occur in all solids.
• Explain why metals are...

Specific heat capacity of water

The aim of this investigation is to measure the specific heat capacity of water, building on GCSE work.  The focus can be on sources of error and you can also look at finding the SHC of other liquids, or seeing if altering the mass affects the results.
