This popular science show has been adapted to an interactive virtual learning format for maximum excitement and minimum mess in your classroom! The usual 30 minute show has been extended to 45 minutes to accommodate more experiments, close up views of demonstrations and more time for students to ask questions.

The Cool stuff show uses some ‘very cool’ liquid nitrogen demonstrations to illustrate the properties of solids, liquids and gases.

Changes of state, expansion and contraction are all demonstrated using lots of fog, froth and fun.

Students can demonstrate their knowledge in a linked classroom-safe activity that can be used as a pre- or post-show resource.
