Welcome!

I’ve created this science site for my own students as well as teachers and learners of science around the world. My intention is to share engaging resources about biology, chemistry, ecology, environmental science, physics and sustainability as well as general guidance for science learning and scientific communication. Much of the content on these pages applies to science classes anywhere in the world, but the assessment criteria are specific to the IBO’s Diploma Program and the Middle Years Program.

NEW ESS (2024 syllabus)

Resources for teaching and learning about the new IB ESS syllabus at both standard level (SL) and higher level (HL). First exams in 2026.

Original ESS (2017 syllabus)

Resources for teaching and learning about the IB ESS syllabus published in 2017 offered only at standard level (SL). These pages will be actively maintained through the final exams in 2025.

MYP Sciences

Resources for teaching and learning about astronomy, biology, chemistry, earth and environmental science, and physics for the IB Middle Years Programme.
