Use World Science Day as an opportunity to bring science to life in your classroom. This special day, celebrated on 10th November each year, is a chance to show children how science plays a role in our modern world and inspire them to get involved.

The five activities in this Year 1 Science Day Timetable and Activity Pack are linked to the Year 1 National Curriculum for Science and designed to be easy for you to set up and engaging for children to carry out. Each activity sheet includes an explanation of the 'big idea' followed by a list of things you will need, instructions, sentence stems, an explanation of why it works and suggestions for adaptive teaching.

Use the timetable provided to create an immersive science day, or select the activities that best suit your class to do as one-off investigations.
