Welcome to the scrapyard, Junkateer!

Join Jack, Sam and Jo on their mission to tidy up the planet in this fun KS2 science game. Team up and work scientifically to sort through the scrap pile so all the items are ready for recycling and can be taken away on Suzie’s truck.

Get ready to identify 15 different materials using the following equipment:

  • The Water Tank
  • The Magnet
  • The Observation Station
  • The Crusher
  • The Furnace
  • The Circuit
  • The Acid Test

You’ll need to make predictions, choose the right experiments, record your findings and master your materials knowledge. Will the materials melt, shatter, sink or conduct electricity?

Can you complete the missions, unlock all the experiments and fill up your scrapbook? Let’s grab some scrap and get to work!
