Creative Science in Schools

A 3-hour workshop for up to 30 primary school teachers led by two of Science Made Simple’s experienced team. The workshop will focus on creative approaches to science teaching. Participants will be helped to generate lesson plans incorporating practical work, demonstrations and pupil participation. Each workshop will focus on different curriculum areas such as Darwin’s theory of evolution, Astronomy, Health, and Materials Science. Working in groups, with support from the workshop leaders and their peers, the teacher participants will generate novel approaches and lesson plans in teaching these topics. The groups will share their plans with each other and receive constructive, expert feedback from the workshop leaders.
