How does the eye Focus

 A quick look at the Pasco Model Demo Eye

Digestive system in a bag

 It's the look of amazement on the students faces as they take the knitted digestive system out of the bag and discover the life size small intestine is 5m long

Using a Simple Model

 There seems to be nothing better than a simple model made of what ever comes to hand to demonstrate a concept in a more visual way. Sure I can draw this on the board, but when the students can get there hands on something then the learning increases.

Pasco Adjustable focal length lens

 Demonstrating the @pascoscientific adjustable focal length lens to show how the lens in the eye works. One of the best bits of kit I have used.

Salt structure

 Taking some of the atoms away from the models allows the students to better visualise the crystalline structure and see into the molecule.

A level Maths

Teaching is not just about teaching students about Maths but how to go about solving problems and sometimes by their very nature a new problem has to be explored to work out how to solve them. Learning strategies to solving problems is much more important.

Fractional distillation

Looking at crude oil and extracting the different fractions. The first fractions burnt well but subsequent fractions were impossible to light which surprised the students.
