Hands-on-CERN (HoC)
Hands-on-CERN (HoC) is an educational project at the scientific frontier of
physics. It is aimed at teachers and high school students studying natural
sciences.

In this website one can find
activities on different units, example light and electricity.

Make
a Splash with Colour is a great site for KS2 or as a teachers
resource for all primary. It puts colour in context as well as covering
some important ideas.

From April to October the Engine House Project runs a variety of half
day science sessions at Sandford Mill
for Key Stage 1 and 2. Sessions include forces, materials, sound, light and
electricity. This site gives information about these programs.

Nuclear physics remains a
hot topic for discussion, especially at this excellent site. Learn the
underlying principles of nuclear physics and the history of its development.
Discover the uses, from general applications such as medical imaging and
radioactive dating, to the more controversial nuclear energy and nuclear
weapons. Read the opposing viewpoints people have for and against the use of
nuclear energy and nuclear proliferation.

This website lets the
children explore things, such as X-ray. The idea is that children learn more
when they are using things.
ExploreLearning offers a catalog of modular, interactive simulations in
math and science for teachers and students in grades 6-12. We call these simulations Gizmos. Gizmos are fun,
easy to use, and flexible enough to support many different teaching styles and contexts.
Our Gizmos are designed as supplemental curriculum materials that support state
and national curriculum standards; in addition, Gizmos help teachers bring research-proven instructional
strategies to their classrooms.

These pages are designed to
give you the information you'll need for the Radioactivity topic at GCSE. They
are intended to enhance the material in the textbook "Physics for
You", by Keith Johnson (published by Nelson Thornes). Each of the main
sections has a short quiz, so you can check your progress.

Springs,
gears, friction, pulleys and planes... some good experiments (including
printable resources) to do in school or try at home. Great for technology,
too, with a separate section on Hands On Technology.
