Spark Curiosity This British Science Week: Free Activity Packs for Primary & Secondary! British Science Week is just around the corner (8th - 17th March 2024), and this year's theme is time! ⏰ Whether you're a primary or secondary school leader, engaging students in the wonders of science can be both challenging and rewarding. Luckily, British Science Week provides the perfect opportunity to ignite their curiosity and spark a lifelong passion for exploration. To help you get started, the British Science Association has created fantastic free activity packs packed with engaging activities, experiments, and resources tailored for different age groups: - Primary Activity Pack: https://buff.ly/49puyTd - Secondary Activity Pack: https://buff.ly/3T90J3U These packs offer a variety of activities that: - Align with the 'time' theme: Explore the fascinating science behind timekeeping, the concept of time itself, and its impact on various scientific fields. - Cater to different learning styles: From hands-on experiments to thought-provoking discussions, there's something for every student. - Promote cross-curricular learning: Integrate science with other subjects like history, geography, and art! #BritishScienceWeek #Time #STEMEducation #Schools #ScienceIsEverywhere

Have you seen what our kids are up to in science class? More than just textbooks, they’re diving head first into real experiments. Whether they’re young explorers asking big questions or older students gearing up for the Science Fair, our science program is all about getting hands-on and thinking big. Curious about how we blend science with arts and tech in our STEAM approach? Drop us a message or check out more here: https://lnkd.in/gW_ZNMjx #KadimahScience #HandsOnLearning #FutureInnovators

🔍 Living Science Mini Expedition Did you know that even our elementary students get to experience the excitement of a science expedition? Every spring, they participate in a Mini Expedition right here on campus!   This hands-on adventure lets our younger learners explore nature, conduct experiments, and apply what they’ve learned in class—all while staying at school. It’s the perfect introduction to the world of scientific discovery and prepares them for future middle school expeditions.   At Living Science, we believe in going beyond academic excellence by inspiring curiosity and real-world learning from the very beginning. #DiscoverLivingScience #HandsOnLearning #GoingBeyondAcademics

Science in the Subarctic   Article by Jacqueline Monteith, Frontier School Division “We all have a relationship with Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM). This relationship builds as we explore the world around us through experiences, interests, and exposure to new ideas. Fostering these relationships is phenomenal. It is even more phenomenal when we consider the very real and lasting impact that we have on our young people through STEM-based experiences.” Read the link to learn more about teaching students in the outdoors through a local lens. https://lnkd.in/e7eJyq4P

Open Science news: 🧠 A Donders Institute team has received an NWO (Dutch Research Council) Open Science Grant for the 'Open Matrices' project. Rogier Kievit: "Fluid reasoning is the ability to figure out abstract, novel problems not reliant on specific knowledge. Individual differences in this ability are surprisingly predictive of outcomes such as school success, longevity, and socio-economic outcomes. However, the standard tests of this skill such as the Ravens Matrices and Cattell Culture Fair test are copyrighted and expensive, preventing access by less well-resourced countries, practitioners, and labs. With our Open Science project, we will develop, validate and make available an effectively unlimited set of matrix reasoning items to the global community."

On Friday, #BritishScienceWeek began 🧪 Being a Life Science Recruitment Company we are proudly marking the occasion with a daily science quiz amongst our employees. It's safe to say, it's getting competitive. As well as having fun, it's also important to recognise what #BSW represents. British Science Week is a ten-day celebration of all things science, technology, engineering and maths. This year's theme is something Ricky Martin and the team are very passionate about: 'Smashing Stereotypes'. The ultimate goal of this year's theme is to "challenge long-standing stereotypes, with the aim of encouraging more young people, from all backgrounds, to see themselves as scientists". As science evolves, there are more and more opportunities to join the science industry. BSW will help to smash the stereotyping in science and encourage all young people, regardless of their backgrounds to embrace science. This will hopefully see an increase in promising young scientists working in a sector which impacts us all. Who knows, in years to come we could be placing a young science professional into work who was inspired by BSW.
