Primary (Years 1 - 6)

Hazards (Volcanoes and Earthquakes)

Suitable for years 3-6: Online - 45 minutes 

This workshop introduces students to the structure of earth, where and why earthquakes and volcanic eruptions happen. Pupils use 3D glasses and 3D pictures of volcanoes to find out more about these natural hazards.

Fossils

Suitable for years 1-6: Online - 45 minutes

This flexible workshop can be adapted to be run with a range of different abilities. Students find out about different types of fossil and how they are made. Students then view different fossils using 3D glasses and stereographic fossil images.

Arctic, Sea Ice and Climate Change

Suitable for years 3-6: Online - 45 minutes

Students explore the polar climate and sea ice in the Arctic using 3D glasses and 3D images of the Arctic. After understanding what climate change is, why it is happening and the effects of a warming world, students then look at the impact it is having in the Arctic.

Planets in the solar system                                                 

Suitable for years 1-6: Online - 45 minutes

This workshop looks at the planets in the solar system and some of the different ways in which scientists study space (without actually going there!). The students will use 3D glasses and 3D images to discover the surface of Mars!

Rocks and Minerals

Suitable for years 1-6: Online - 45 minutes

A workshop that introduces pupils to different types of rocks and minerals and gets them to think about where they come from and what we use them for. Students are challenged to identify different rock types using 3D glasses and 3D pictures.
