Sparking curiosity and igniting understanding in primary science to all learners Using 'BSL Science in a Box'

Saturday May 30, 2026 11:15 - 12:05 BST

Our workshop aims to spark scientific curiosity in all learners. We will introduce the ‘BSL Science in a Box’ resource, which has 20 interactive and hands on investigations aimed at primary aged children.

Each investigation includes bilingual resources, teachers notes and curriculum links, BSL videos and signs. We will show how the use of BSL in science with all learners will help to ignite conceptual understanding, whilst increasing teacher confidence in teaching science.
