Our fantastic new featured theme for September 2020 is ‘STEM’!
Our new featured theme for the month of September 2020 is the fascinating and illuminating topic of STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths). There are literally hundreds of Science, Maths and Computing resources on the 123HUB which could easily be classified as coming under the STEM banner; however, our featured theme is dedicated solely to highlighting resources that can be applied to the teaching and learning of STEM as a topic to inspire inquiring young minds.
We have over 30 great websites on offer providing STEM challenges, ideas, activities and resources that may be used in the classroom, along with some that have been created with learning STEM at home firmly in mind.
All of our featured themes are made up of a mixture of teaching and investigation resources. They comprise of: information, facts, research, hands-on activities illustrations and video clips, as well as some detailed planning – each of which effectively underpin our engaging and amazing topics.
The featured theme is normally updated monthly during the school year. Please watch out for our excellent ‘Pirates‘ and ‘Halloween’ resources, coming in October 2020!
