Miss Molecule & Friends Provided by Studio Wallop/GeoScience Ltd Lesson plan, Classroom activity, Video Description:

Miss Molecule & Friends is a series of inspirational animations with accompanying lesson resources which have been aligned to the UK curriculum. The package has been designed to be used independently by teachers, parents and the general public to educate and engage children aged between 9-11 years on a variety of subjects and industries related to renewable energy, critical minerals, sustainability, biodiversity and wellbeing.
The first episode in the series features Lithium and delves into where Lithium comes from, where it is found, and what is it used for. Miss Molecule also interviews staff from Cornish Lithium who explain their sustainable extraction methods being pioneered in Cornwall and talk about the careers available in the industry.
The resources are free to use and include a short animation, lesson plan and worksheet. To view the current resources available and to keep up to date with new episodes please visit: www.missmolecule.co.uk.
This project is a collaboration between Studio Wallop, Cornish Lithium and GeoScience Limited and has been funded by The Institute of Engineering and Technology and the Institute of Mechanical Engineers.
