I have already recommended this to both colleagues (EYFS / KS1 and KS2) in both my school and others. It is a wonderful resource for school and home and stretches across age ranges as well as ability. Thanks!

Nikki Derry found Twig Science Reporter:
  • Significantly improves attainment
    Some children have used examples from the videos to make connections with learning in lessons
  • Moderately builds student knowledge
    Children are finding out about life / inventions outside their immediate life, eg the seahorse hotels in Australia, the GPS medicine drops in Africa and the spider robot in space.
  • Slightly reduces teacher workload
    I use the video as a weekly science assembly and oracy session so it doesn't reduce my science planning time, but allows for a wider and more accessible coverage and links to the wider world as well.
  • Significantly improves teacher knowledge and skills
    I learn some of these new facts and discoveries while watching the videos and can then make connections for the children (and my own children at home)
  • Slightly saves school money
    N/A - we don't have a budget for the peripheral science exposure that this allows
