Complete lesson on forms and conservation of energy (+ energy transfer diagrams) with key content from AQA Physics. Starter includes true or false to deal with misconceptions on energy and check current understanding. Main includes a guide through forms of energy and demo on conservation of energy (just using a ball) leading to class practical with energy circus to draw energy transfer diagrams and identify useful and wasted energy. Plenary uses exam style questions and challenging homework task to summarise learning. More lessons to follow in same format for P1. https://www.tes.com/member/Nteach

Complete lesson on u-values and payback time with key content from AQA Physics. Starter includes 10 questions to serve as a summary of previous heat transfer content. Main includes simple insulation experiment leading to explanation of u-values explaining the units clearly. Pupils often get confused with U-values and what they mean, direct link to experiment can help by discussing results from the experiment and which material would have a higher or lower u-value. U-values related to key home insulation methods, this lead onto cost effectiveness and payback time. Plenary uses exam style questions including a 6 mark question.

Complete lesson on heat transfer by design with key content from AQA Physics. Starter includes a simple teacher demo and competition if you wish to make it that way. Main includes simple challenge for pupils using simple equipment and key information and tasks on heat transfer applications. Plenary uses 6 mark exam question. Home structure included for pupils that would prefer to not draw their own for home insulation task. More lessons to follow in same format for P1. https://www.tes.com/member/Nteach

GCSE lesson on specific heat capacity including key content from AQA GCSE Physics. Includes an example which could be used as an teacher demo if wished for starter.
