This lesson links to the new AQA physics / Trilogy GCSE. The resources give pupils the opportunity to use graphs to carry out data analysis and make conclusion from the data they find. The data is linked to domestic and global energy demands and the energy resources we use to provide these needs. One of the tasks includes a group activity where pupils need to present their findings. There is a starter to summarise environmental issues linked to use of fossil Fuels. The lesson also includes how fossil fuel and nuclear power stations generate electricity where pupils complete a sequencing activity.

A revision mat on for the Trilogy AQA Physics radiation unit. Print out a blank copy of the summary sheet. Give pupils access to the internet of textbooks to try and find the answers. The answers are available for self / peer assessment by the end of the lesson. Also a good homework activity to assist in revision before an end of unit test

A fully resourced lesson. Print out the leaflet as an A5 booklet. The presentation has slides that can be printed out and laminated if you wish, and then placed around the room for pupils to gather information from. The radiation cards act like A,B,C cards and can be used so pupils can show their response to the quiz at the end of the lesson

Summary sheet for the Conservation and dissipation of energy unit. The answers are supplied, but students should use the internet or textbooks to try and fill as many gaps as possible before the answers are supplied.

A presentation to take students through the theory of density. The presentation also walks pupils through the techniques needed to calculate density for regular and irregular solids and liquids. An adapted version of the AQA required Practical worksheet has also been included. There is a set of differentiated questions on density calculations and theory to challenge students - the calculation answers are on the presentation.

A display with quotes by famous people about 'Curiosity in Science'

A presentation of different Optical Illusions - Just for the fun of it!

An introduction to laws of reflection before instructions on how to make a kaleidoscope. Good for a KS3 or low ability KS4 group. Lots of fun and the disposable mirrors are relatively cheap to get hold of.
