What’s included in the Y5/6 Winter Olympics 5-Minute Science resource and why is it useful?

Y5/6 Winter Olympics 5-Minute Science is a set of three revision worksheets covering the Winter Olympics. These have been designed to give your children up to three opportunities to engage in deliberate practice outside of the teaching of the topic. This resource covers dissolving and separating mixtures by filtering, changes of state and choosing materials by their properties, forces including pushes and pulls, gravity, friction and air resistance, and the circulatory system and the effects of exercise and diet.

How do our 5 Minute Science resources work?

As these resources are designed for re-cap and revision, you could use 5 Minute Science resources during the Winter Olympics for early morning work, alongside your other Winter Olympics activities or later in the year as a re-cap. The content across the three worksheets re-visits national curriculum objectives from across the Y5/6 science curriculum rather than a single unit.
