Transition Metals and their salts

So colourful and yet so toxic. The familiar metals used daily are Iron, Cobalt, Nickel and Copper, yet their salts are less well known, and for all their beauty, many are very toxic to the environment. Learning about ores and extraction and safe disposal methods in the lab.

Daily metals like Iron, Cobalt, Nickel, and Copper are so familiar and colourful, but did you know their salts are often toxic to the environment? It's essential to learn about safe extraction, disposal methods, and ore sources in the lab to protect our planet. #metals #toxicity #environment #education

Force Protractor


A fun experiment using a @pascoscientific tension protractor trying to hand a picture straight when the holes in the frame were put in unequally. The students need to use Maths to calculate the angles and then test out their working hypothesis to see if they are correct. #science #experiment

Inside the body


In biology, we check out different body parts at different times. So examining a whole body and mapping out how everything relates was fascinating. The students were surprised to see that there was no empty space; everything was packed in. #biology #anatomy
