Super Science
From the British Science Association for National Science & Engineering Week
![Super science cover](../../../../resource-img/curriculum/science/super-science/cover.png)
Super Science contains accessible activities and investigations adapted from existing National Science & Engineering Week activity packs for use with a range of audiences including those with learning difficulties or special needs.
It has been designed for children who have difficulty following instructions given purely in text and/or find it hard to remember verbal instructions so there are accompanying pupil flash-cards with symbols.

The 15 activities have been developed for use in 20–60 minute class or science club sessions. They have been created to support activities during National Science & Engineering Week although the activities can be used any time.
A range of themes are explored in the pack, using cheap and easy materials. Three of the activities can be extended to gain a Crest Star Investigator award and there are ideas on extension activities throughout.
