Station-based science activities on heat transfers
Your classroom heats up as we explore how heat is propagated through a variety of materials, plus how we harness heat for our own use:
- Investigate heat conductivity in a variety of materials, including a space shuttle tile!
- Learn how heat can be created from other energy sources
- Discover how temperature differences can make engines work
- Learn how convection drives ocean currents and atmospheric processes
- Look at chemical reactions; some release heat and others absorb heat….and more!
From the Sun to future technologies, this workshop will keep your students warmed up to science!
Full risk assessments available on request.
Available as a primary school science incursion within Australia or as a video conference to any school around the globe!
Online Class Version
We’ve run live interactive distance programs since 2010 and are highly experienced in making online classes engaging for students on a variety of web conferencing platforms.
- All of the same curriculum points will be covered, but the activities may vary from those listed for face-to-face incursions.
- Our online classes include demonstrations, Q&A, and hands-on activities (you will receive a materials list upon booking).
- Full child protections are in place
- We usually connect to classes & homes via Zoom, however if you wish to use a different software we can work with you on getting the connection live.
If you connect with us via Zoom
- Full system requirements for Zoom here
- Each student should test their Zoom connection here.
- Once the date & time is arranged we will send you simple connection instructions (one click & you’re in!)
I just wanted to pass on how much the staff and students really enjoyed it and how perfect it was to launch our science week activities. The students were enthralled, educated and entertained – a perfect trifecta!
-Caulfield Grammar School – Big Science Big FunThanks so much for presenting at our school on Monday. Our students enjoyed the show.
-Greenvale Primary School – Big Science Big FunFizzics Education curated a thoughtful and hands-on experience for the children, incorporating practical, skill-based learning activities and followed by a science presentation at the end of the event involving liquid nitrogen. This was delivered safely and effectively, capturing both the children and the parents for the duration of the presentation.
-Macquarie Bank – Family Fun DayFizzics Education ran a show today at our school and it was wonderful. He was a great facilitator and the show was age appropriate and well done.
