Science is all about curiosity and engagement. Students should feel inspired in lessons, with the confidence to test their knowledge and push the boundaries of physics, chemistry, and biology, all while gaining the skills they need to pass exams. As a teacher, it’s up to you to get them there!
At Propello, we’re constantly on the lookout for ways to help you tackle the challenges of the classroom. That’s why we’ve created our free KS3 science curriculum resources, designed to help you plan lessons, teach, and engage your students. With ready-to-use materials and interactive features, your students will have the confidence to explore the world of science and make the most of lesson time. Learn more about what to expect in this guide.
When you sign up to Propello, you’ll have instant access to a huge range of free science learning tools, all of which are ready for the classroom. That means no waiting around; you can start sharing the resources with your students as soon as you log in. You’ll have access to:
Make your way through our units, following the KS3 science curriculum. Each topic is written by our team of teachers and presented in easy-to-follow formats, with lesson presentations which include videos and trivia to give your lessons plenty of variety. We’ve made sure all of our units are accessible, too, because we know that one-size-fits-all isn’t enough for the diversity of classrooms.
Throughout the units, we’ve added mini tests that you and your students can use to ensure you’re on track. Once a section of the unit’s completed, students can work through science exam practice questions, applying their knowledge and getting to grips with exam formats. There’s also plenty of Kahoot quizzes to complete, giving a well-rounded approach to testing that suits different learning styles.
All our KS3 science curriculum units come with worksheets and activities. These feature a variety of different activities and tasks, putting what students have learnt into practice. Whether going through these as part of a unit or before exams, they’re a great way to brush up on essential knowledge and tailor your teaching to suit different learning styles.
From our KS3 science quizzes to our activity sheets, we’ve made sure that teachers can use Propello throughout the teaching cycle.
From the moment you start planning lessons, our curriculum-aligned lesson packs give you ready-to-go content that fits straight into the classroom. Use this as the basis of your lessons or to inspire your own approach to the unit; our resources are designed to be versatile.
During lessons, use Propello’s science resources to bring topics to life. Spark curiosity with fun diagrams, reach visual learners through the power of video, and assess as you go for instant feedback.
Another crucial feature of our KS3 science worksheets and resources is the ability to track individual progress. Use the dashboard to monitor the test scores and activities of different students, and gain a deeper understanding of where your students are with the subject. You can then assign individual tasks, which might include going back over the notes for one student, while another starts on the practice exam questions. This can be done in class or as homework, ensuring that learning is always adaptive and personalised.
No child should ever miss out in the classroom. That’s why we’ve made sure our KS3 science resources (and all the units, worksheets, and quizzes across our subjects) are accessible. They comply with both SEND (Special Educational Needs and Disabilities) and EAL (English as an Additional Language) requirements, and can be easily tailored to suit different needs and learning styles. Students will benefit from:
We’ve also added lots of different formats to our resources so that students can find the learning styles they prefer. From visual glossaries to interactive quizzes, there’s something for everyone, so that no student has to struggle.
At Propello, all the wonderful KS3 science worksheets and quizzes can be accessed completely free of charge. All you need to do is sign up, and you’ll be able to tap into a huge library of science resources. There’s a paid version of Propello available, too, but you don’t need it to gain access to the majority of our lesson packs.
If you do upgrade, though, you’ll be able to track student progress and bring a more informed and personalised approach to teaching in your science classroom.
It’s not just science that we deal with! When you begin your free membership, you can explore the same wide variety of resources for geography, history, business, and religious studies.
