British Science
Week, run by the British Science Association is
a ten-day celebration of science, technology, engineering and maths, featuring
entertaining and engaging events and activities across the UK for people of all
ages. This year it runs 9th – 18th March.
The annual Science Week provides a platform to stimulate and support teachers, STEM professionals, science communicators and the general public to produce and participate in STEM events and activities. Anyone can organise an event or activity and the British Science Association provides free activity and support resources.
Activity packs are
available to download and aim to encourage young people to think about
everyday discoveries and how they affect their lives by exploring science in
the world all around us. https://www.britishscienceweek.org
Also this year is 'Citizen Science' with a project based on plastics found on our beaches working with the charity, The Plastic
Tide.
