Downloadable resources
Welcome to our Potatoes for Schools downloadable resources.
We have produced a new, comprehensive teachers’ guide to help you make best use of all the exciting resources on the Potatoes for Schools website.
The guide provides a series of generic lesson notes to help you teach primary aged children about potatoes. The notes are designed to provide the basic structure and content for lessons, but will need to be tweaked to meet the needs of individual classes. The guide includes links to all UK curricula.
The lesson notes show how the worksheets and other materials on the Potatoes for Schools website can be used. Where materials are available on the site to support the lesson, they are shown in bold.
You could plan a block of potato themed work and use the notes to get you started, or dip into the notes and materials to support your teaching, e.g. teach about investigations in science by setting up a potato growing investigation.
