IET Education Primary Resources
This collection provides lots of STEM challenges and resources linked to science topics in the primary curriculum. Many support learning skills in design and technology and can be run as a project.
The challenge days support teachers in running their own Aerospace engineers or Lighthouse keeper transfer challenge day with children. They can be used to enhance the curriculum as children need to apply existing knowledge of electrical circuits, forces, design and construction in an integrated project. Although the challenges are designed to be delivered across one day they can also be split into smaller parts and used over several weeks or within a STEM Club.
These resources have been provided by the Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET).

3D shape nets
Nets are used to make almost all forms of card packaging, ranging from simple cereal boxes to display boxes with clear polymer ‘windows’, to display stands. In this activity children consider how 3D packaging may be made from a 2D net, then make card models of a pyramid and a cube from nets. They may combine...
Learn to count: balloon rocket activity
In this activity learners will to countdown backwards using different steps i.e. 1s, 2s, 3s, 5s and 10s. This will prepare learners to count to and across 100, forwards and backwards, beginning with zero, or from any given number. To enhance engagement, learners will release balloon ‘rockets’ when each countdown...
The human body
In this activity children learn to identify parts of the human body, by cutting out and assembling a 2D model. It includes a presentation and sheets of the main body parts ready to cut out and assemble.

How much paper comes from a tree
In this activity children practise using scales to weigh different items of packaging. They then calculate how many of each item could be made from an average tree.
The resource, which provides an authentic context for maths learning has been proved by the IET, (Institution of Engineering and Technology)....
