'Doctor Who' has launched a range of educational resources for schoolchildren.
Twinkl's Doctor Who resources
The iconic BBC sci-fi show - which has always sought to teach younger viewers about important moments in history - has teamed up with global publisher Twinkl to create a collection of resources aimed at kids between seven and 11 years old.
The packs - which are the first ever 'Doctor Who' branded resources to be linked to the UK national curriculum - will include activity sheets, interactive presentations and reading comprehensions.
The free-to-use activities can be used separately or alongside episodes from series 11 and 12, while they link the Doctor's adventures to units of study for school years three to six.
Science, geography and history are all covered in the materials, which will introduce students to figures like Rosa Parks, Nikola Tesla and Thomas Edison, and "teach them about subjects such as the Indian partition, artificial intelligence and animals and their ecosystems".
Vanessa Hamilton - Head of Brand, Doctor Who, BBC Studios - said: "We're delighted to be partnering with Twinkl to create 'Doctor Who' educational resources for children across the world.
"'Doctor Who' has been inspiring and entertaining children for generations, so we're thrilled that we can bring this much loved series to the classroom in an educational and engaging way."
And Jonathan Seaton - CEO and Co-Founder of Twinkl - added: "Working with BBC Studios to create this exciting range of 'Doctor Who' learning materials has been out of this world!
"We are always looking for new ways to help those who teach, and hope that these resources provide teachers, parents and carers with a unique new way to engage children in learning.
"We know that now more than ever parents are looking for ways to help children learn at home and hope that the 'Doctor Who' resources will be a big hit in households and at schools right now, as well as far into the future."
