This is a "self delivery" pack which has been designed specifically for National Science and Engineering Week 2013. The science behind fingeprints is well known! What is not so well known is the link between fingerprints and footprints. Right Angle Events have launched a new education pack called ‘Toes for Turf’ comprising at least 4 hours of fun teaching material linked to Key Stage 1-4 Mathematics.
We have designed a fantastic scheme especially for National Science & Engineering Week called "Toes For Turf". The science behind fingerprints is well known. What is not so well known is the science behind footprints or "feet prints". This activity enables students to take, classify and "lift" both fingerprints and foot prints. As the research on footprints is meagre, this scheme will allow students to make some discoveries about the correlation or otherwise between fingerprints and feet prints.
BioSoc is proud to present the 'Behind the Scenes of Inside Natures Giants' public lecture, on the 15th of January at 18:00, held by the high profile evolutionary biologist, Simon Watt. Simon will be coming to talk to us about his interests as a biologist, and the science behind the scenes of the popular TV program “Inside Nature’s Giants”, where you could see the team dissecting some of the biggest animals on this planet. Simon will address topics like animal autopsy, animal adaptations and how humans measure up to them.
