Summary:

As part of their continuing professional development, Birmingham primary teachers Claire Duncan and Sukhbinder Bachra work together to plan two creative science lessons on light, one for Claire's Year 3 and another for Sukhbinder's Year 5 class. The teachers meet with primary science consultant Rosemary Feasey who offers some inspirational advice on how to approach science more creatively. As a result, Claire plans to use a story about a teddy needing some new sunglasses to inspire her Year 3 class. They will design and make some new sunglasses for Teddy. Sukhbinder's Year 5s will investigate a solar eclipse and predict the consequences if a solar eclipse lasted for a very long time. The children will work in groups and at the end of the lesson, make presentations to the whole class. The programme concludes with the start of both lessons. In the second programme, Claire and Sukhbinder will reflect on how it all went, with a detailed look at what happened in the classrooms.
