I am Fossiliam - palaeontologist Dr Liam Herringshaw - and I run Earth science, natural history, and geography sessions for primary schools in York and across Yorkshire. These are linked in to the National Curriculum for KS1 and KS2, with some example topics below:
KS1 Year 1/2 Science - Plants and Animals - What is a fossil?
KS1 Year 1/2 Science - Living Things and Habitats - Life's A Beach: the curious creatures that live by the seaside.
KS2 Year 3/4 Science - Rocks - Yorkshire Rocks: the amazing rocks and fossils of Yorkshire (can also be run simply as Yorkshire Fossils, exploring the amazing fossils found around the county, and what they tell us about life in the past).
KS2 Year 3/4 Science - Living Things & Habitats - Crunchin' Judy: life in a Yorkshire hyaena den!
KS2 Year 5 Science - Living Things & Habitats - Wormworld: how burrowing creatures make Planet Earth.
KS2 Year 6 Science - Evolution and inheritance - Dino-birds: why dinosaurs aren't extinct!
KS2 Geography - Your School Through Time: exploring the geography, geology and history of your school and local area.
I love developing bespoke activities with schools, and I also offer Earth Club, an after-school club, which can be tailored to different year groups and topics. Drop me a line and I'm very happy to chat!
