Free Year 6 Science Lesson Plans for Teachers

Complete your Key Stage 2 science coverage with five Year 6 science lessons: Living Things and Their Habitats, Animals Including Humans, Evolution and Inheritance, Light, and Electricity. Each editable deck presents the unit's big ideas with diagrams, precise vocabulary and questioning built in.

The England National Curriculum gives Year 6 some of primary science's most substantial content: classification in the tradition of Linnaeus, the circulatory system and healthy lifestyles, evolution by adaptation and the evidence of fossils, light travelling in straight lines, and voltage in circuits with recognised symbols. These lessons treat each unit rigorously while keeping the explanations accessible for ten and eleven year olds.

Teachers adapt the decks in Chalkie: regenerate a circuit-symbol activity, add data from a class investigation, or trim a lesson for revision after the units are taught. It keeps Year 6 science strong even in a year dominated by English and maths, with every unit following the same clear structure so pupils know what to expect.
