Dear Readers,
Science on Stage is looking back on an exciting year full of inspiring events and activities from and for STEM teachers from all over Europe.
In 2016 our science teachers' network delivered national events in 16 countries, it has launched the new teaching brochure 'iStage 3 - Football in Science Teaching' in six languages and it welcomed Georgia, Iceland, Latvia and Ukraine as well as Egypt and Israel to our community.
Today we would like to thank you all for your great commitment: Your work and enthusiasm is what makes our network so special and vivid! Together we are looking forward to an exciting year to come in 2017.
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
Your Science on Stage Team

Teaching Material of the Month: Light phenomena and electricity in primary schoolEveryone who swings an electric torch in fast circles can oberserve this phenomenon: Even though the light of the lamp only comes from one point you can see a circular line of light. But how can that be? In this teaching unit the physicist and electrician Otto Lührs explains this phenomenon to primary school students by building a disc rotography with light-emitting diodes on a CD. The material is taken from the brochure 'Lantern Moon and Hot Ears' and can be downloaded here:

iStage 3: Now available in six languagesThe brochure 'iStage 3 - Football in Science Teaching' comprises twelve teaching units containing interesting experiments around football for biology, chemistry, computer sciences, maths and physics: From the measurement of the mass of the air inside the ball, to the influence of energy drinks on the performance of the players and on calculating the chance of scoring during a penalty shoot-out, there is something for everyone to try. The material is now available in English, French, German, Hungarian, Polish and Spanish. A Czech and Swedish version will follow in 2017. Find the material here:
