Guy Fawkes Night presents great teaching opportunities, and also significant dangers that students should be educated about. Here's a super set of resources created by a group of 44 teachers. Use them for classwork or homework in a range of subjects.

• Fireworks Safety Essay (English/Media)
• Science quiz (Science/Chemistry)
• 2 History quizzes (History)
• History/ethics survey (History/Citizenship/R.E.)
• Safety project (Tutor/Science/PSHE)
• Retrospective project (Tutor/Science/PSHE)

The two projects (both called My Firework Show Website) provide an opportunity for students to create their own website without them (or you) needing any web skills at all. Both you and their parents will be impressed with what your students will produce!

All these engaging resources are accessed for free through our online assessment service Yacapaca.
