What to expect?

These are launch sessions, designed for you to watch and interact with at the start of a lesson before moving on to carry out activities as a class. 

Resources such as differentiated worksheets will be created for you to use after the sessions.

The project is an opportunity to:

• spark your learners’ interest in Science and Technology.

• develop your own practice as a teacher within the Science and Technology Area of Learning and 

Experience.
