Search for resources

Use a variety of search strategies to efficiently locate video clips, images, audio files, activities, texts, lesson plans and more.

Searching for resources

There are three ways to find resources for your classroom:

Keyword search: To conduct a keyword search, simply use the Search bar at the top of the page to conduct targeted keyword searches. The search results contain all the titles that match the keyword you entered, which can be filtered by resource type, language, copyright, and more.

By subject: Explore curated resources related to a specific National Curriculum subject. Select the topic, such as Grammar and Punctuation or Measures, and view a channel of curated content for that subject and your preferred key stage.

By key stage

Exclusive to Discovery Education Espresso partners. Search for resources that directly teach or support the teaching of a specific key stage. 

Filter results

Being able to filter results provides teachers the opportunity to tailor the resources to specific needs of pupils - whether that's finding a video for a particular level or more visual resources. After search results are displayed, there are two sets of filters you can use to narrow down your results.

• At the top, filter your results by grade level, and resource type. 
• On the left, the filters will vary depending on what has been selected at the top, but include details (such as primary source, quiz, etc), publisher, copyright date, and more. 

When exploring search results, look for the NEW flag on a resource. This means it was added to Discovery Education in the last 60 days!
