George’s Marvellous Medicine

Welcome to the first of our Starfish on our Science and Technology Ray – Lickswishy Science - science inspired by the books of Roald Dahl. Each Starfish in the series will enlighten you with some facts about Roald Dahl’s amazing life, give you a brief summary of one of his children's books (he wrote lots of books for adults too!) and offer you some themed experiments which you can try for yourselves at home

How to use this resource

There are 5 Rays, which provide a programme for one year’s sessions for a children’s group running during term-time. For each Ray, there is a set of topics, each of which comprises a theme for a term or half-term.

The sessions are presented in a pick-and-mix way - some information, some games, crafts, videos, etc. You are encouraged to adapt the material to your own setting , the time you have available and the resources you have. Don’t think that you have to do everything on offer.
