See the idea. Put it to the test.

956 practicals from Kindergarten to Year 12, in 9 subjects. A practical gives the idea, what you need, the steps, what you should see and a safety card. A teacher-led practical gives the idea and its hazards; its method is for tutors on the learning platform.

Review

Reviewed before publication (owner’s confirmation, 24 September 2026). That covers every practical here, and a practical’s page lists the sources its author read.

A safety card on every page

The risk, who supervises and the hazards. The 38 teacher-led practicals show their idea and hazards here; their materials, steps and sources, and any result, control or note that states a number or an amount, are for tutors and administrators on the learning platform.

School laboratory, not for home

207 practicals are medium or high risk. Each says so on its page: In a school laboratory, with a teacher supervising, under the school's risk assessment. Not for home.

Curriculum references

Each practical lists the NSW syllabus outcomes and Australian Curriculum v9 codes it supports. They are references, not a verified or complete curriculum alignment.

Clear all

A practical is carried out at the bench, in the classroom or outdoors. A practical with its model not built stands on its own; the page says where a step mentions the model. A calculation and data practical works from published figures by hand, with a calculator or in a spreadsheet. No Lab page includes an interactive model; the Concept Studio holds the demonstrations.

    Evaporation race: sun, shade, wind and surface area

    Evaporation is faster when water is warmer, when the air is drier or moving, and when more surface is exposed, and the rate can be measured as mass lost per hour.

    Water cycle in a bag on a sunny window

    Water evaporates when warmed, condenses on a cooler surface and falls back as drops, the same evaporation, condensation and precipitation that move water through the sky, land and ocean.

    Where does the water on a cold can come from? Finding the dew point

    Air holds invisible water vapour, and when it touches a surface cold enough it condenses into drops, at a temperature called the dew point that a learner can measure with a can, ice and a thermometer.
