The Avengers

(0)
This lesson involves using the avengers to teach students about forces and motion, The unit involves a lesson plan and an activity where students compare the skills of each avenger and solve simple calculations using Newtons first and second laws of motion. The students work in groups to help solve these mathematical problems
Vectors and Scalars

Vectors and Scalars

(0)
Designed for senior physics this presentation outlines the difference between vectors and scalars. The addition, subtraction and multiplication of vectors. Additionally the use of geometry to resolve components of vectors is also included with examples employed to test understanding.
Forces revision game
doctorharvesdoctorharves

Forces revision game

(0)
This is a useful revision resource around forces and Newtons equations of motion. The activity consists of students cutting out and creating a series of cards. The students then work in groups of 3 - 4 to attempt to compete the task set on the cards. The fastest group wins. The task is 'I have, who has' Each card has a definition (I have) and also a question (who has) one student reads out a question (who has) and other students respond with the answer (I have) based on what cards they have in front of them. If the answer is correct then they read out the question on their card. The game is completed when all definitions are answered by the group.

Angry birds - projectile motion
doctorharvesdoctorharves

Angry birds - projectile motion

(1)
This lesson involves using angry birds as a context to develop understanding of projectile motion and the affect of gravity on objects. The lesson is in 3 parts: Part one is notes and questions to test student understanding of projectile motion including breaking down the horizontal and vertical components of this motion. Part two then introduces the concept of gravity acting on an object and how mass and distance from objects changes the force of gravity. Part three is an activity where students apply their knowledge of projectile motion to design a new angry bird.

How to use a bunsen burner

(0)
The presentation is to be done over two lessons. The first lesson goes over lab safety with an activity involving finding potential dangers in the lab. The next lesson involves the use of a bunsen burner to test for metals. The latter lesson involves students getting a bunsen burner drivers license by following safety steps. Once attained they test solid salt samples by the flame test. The other activity includes labelling the bunsen burner and using terms in sentences to reinforce learning. The learning objectives for both lessons are outlined in the presentation.
