They are brain-child of months of work to make fully fleshed out mathematics units that integrate other areas of study, but are also truly in keeping to focus on the mathematics and help the students learn in an enjoyable way. All four of these units are focussed on MYP 2, but could apply to either MYP 1 or 3 easily. If you have any questions, please feel to DM me on instagram @theteachingastrophysicist Let’s Connect!

Simply, set and relax as these video companions will help make sure your students are paying attention throughout these videos, having a variety of questions throughout the length of the video. I have laboured long and hard to make these video companions as easy as possible to engage with and to be able to use for teachers of any kind, whether in school, higher education or home schooling, these can be great to keep students engaged and know they watched the material fully. For Veritasium: The video companions include: Astronomy related: Do you expand with the universe? Does planet 9 exist? Half the universe was missing… until now How one supernova measured the universe These are the asteroids to worry about Why gravity is NOT a force Why the speed of light can’t be measured How To Clean Up Space Junk Why Apollo Astronauts Trained in Nuclear Bomb Craters Non-Astronomy related: Can you swim in shade balls? How trees bend the laws of physics How Kodak exposed the Atomic bomb These pools support half the people on Earth Why Are 96,000,000 Black Balls on This Reservoir? States of matter How Special Relativity Makes Magnets Work The Most Radioactive Places on Earth The bizarre behaviour of rotating bodies explained Flamethrower vs Aerogel Ice spikes explained Make plasma with grapes in the microwave Making liquid Nitrogen from scratch Misconceptions about heat I Waterproofed Myself With Aerogel! World’s Lightest Solid! For Minutephysics - the videos include: The Higgs Boson, Part I What if the Earth were Hollow? Why is it Dark at Night? Common Physics Misconceptions Is it Better to Walk or Run in the Rain? How Big is the Universe? MAGNETS: How do they work? What is Sea Level? Why is the Solar System Flat? How Modern Light Bulbs Work How to See Without Glasses Antimatter Explained This is Not a Rainbow How to Subtract By Adding How Long To Fall Through The Earth? Hitting the Sun is HARD Why It’s Impossible to Tune a Piano Will Batteries Power The World? | The Limits Of Lithium-ion The Unreasonable Efficiency of Black Holes The Brown Dwarf Debate Why Do Compressed Air Cans Get Cold? Our Ignorance About Gravity Einstein’s Biggest Blunder, Explained The Physics of Windmill Design Usage: The layout of these video companions are that there are both teacher and student versions of all of these documents. The teacher versions contain the solutions and the administrative information. The student versions contain only the questions and spaces for students to fill in the work. They are easy to use and all in PDF form, including one large ‘master file’ so you can see all the content in one broad sweep and see what video companion will work for you and your students easily.
