About KS2 Science
KS2 Science turns curiosity into discovery. From tiny microorganisms to the vast Solar System, pupils ask questions, observe carefully and use tests to explain how the world works. Our quizzes break big ideas into short bursts so children can learn little and often and build confidence over time.
Explore living things and habitats, materials and their properties, and the forces that shape movement and energy. Try focused practice with Adaptation, wire up knowledge in Electrical Circuits, sort living things in Classification, and investigate matter in Changing Materials. Instant feedback helps children spot what to revisit and celebrates what they already know.
Quizzes can be used at home or alongside classroom lessons. They support key vocabulary, method and enquiry skills while keeping learning lively and manageable. A few quick quizzes each week can make revision feel achievable – and fun.
