Podcast Ep 3: “Flying” Paramedics and the Best Meal of the Day

21 October 2020

In the Learn and Experience Podcast this episode…

Sam, Mike and Julie learn about the amazing jet-suits that are flying paramedics up mountains in the North of England, hear about the balloons floating above Kenya sending out the internet and find out about 2 Egyptian “Mummies” found in the hunt for Cleopatra.

What is the best meal of the day is the Big Discussion, we visit Brazil in the Fact or Fiction Adventure and our Youth Spotlight is on an amazing 13 year old girl who helped her Dad win World War 2 for the allies with her love of Mathematics.  Julie teaches us a new life skill – understanding Electricity! 

A Teacher’s Resource Pack (Lesson Plan, Fact Sheet and Students’ Worksheets) is available for each episode for teachers/parents for fun, interactive and illuminating lessons.
