Explaining and demonstrating conductors and insulators in terms of high and low resistance as caused by the number of collisions between electrons and metal ions, the engaging and easy to follow animated PowerPoint then takes the student through designing a results table and test circuit. If apparatus is available the student can then test different materials themselves or alternatively use the results demonstrated in the PowerPoint in order to conclude that metals are conductors and non – metals are insulators. Objective To know that conductors conduct electricity and insulators do not. To know that metals are conductors and non-metals are insulators. To be able to design a test circuit and results table. To explain why some materials are conductors or insulators in terms of the number of collisions between electrons and metal ions .

Current Electricity - Current Voltage and Resistance Explained KS3

This action-packed lesson introduces current as a flow of electrons and explains the relationship between current, voltage and resistance using the analogy of a diver using up energy obtained from food and giving off heat as they swim through pipes filled either with water (low resistance) or water and rocks (high resistance). The food as a source of energy is then replaced by the battery, the diver by the electron and the rocks by metal ions. Both scenarios are animated in the PowerPoint. This explanation is then extended to compare the resistance of long, short, thick and thin wires. The practical explores the conditions needed for current to flow in a circuit. Objective To know that current is a flow of electrons through a conductor when they are given energy or pushed by a voltage from the battery. To know and explain how metal ions cause resistance. To know and explain the comparative resistance of wires according to length and thickness. To explain why electrons lose more heat passing through a high resistance conductor. To know the conditions needed for current to flow in a circuit.

This one-stop-shop for current electricity at KS3 takes pupils from understanding the terms current, voltage and resistance and the relationship between them, through current and voltage in series and parallel circuits, the resistance of conductors and insulators and how this is used to create components and finishes with Ohms Law. A free bonus package of a board game, card sort and smart board quiz are included. The module is divided into 11 fully-resourced, differentiated and engaging topics with the 11 animated PowerPoints and 147 assorted printables making even the more difficult concepts easy to understand. In ten of the topics, after explaining the concept, the PowerPoint takes pupils through conducting and, where appropriate, designing an experiment with results tables. Pupils then explain their results using the theory they were taught at the start. Each PowerPoint ends with an animated class exit ticket quiz giving instant feedback on learning to both teacher and pupil. In the 39 worksheets/homeworks emphasis is placed on assessment for learning as each module comes with a detailed answer/mark scheme PowerPoint which make self-assessment and peer assessment easy. Each topic comes with a checklist for pupils to assess their progress on completion of the topic. Each topic comes with a one-page flow-chart lesson plan showing where logical choices between resources can be made enabling the teacher to totally bespoke lessons according to pupil ability, time available for the topic and focus of departmental/school policy. Resources not used in the lesson can be additional homework or used for pre-examination revision. Many activities place an emphasis on literacy and oracy. These are identified on the flow-charts.

KS3 Forces Enquiry/Investigation

KS3 Forces Enquiry/Investigation

(0)
The A to Z of an enquiry. This is a fully differentiated and resourced enquiry/investigation into how the surface affects the amount of friction. It is suitable for UK levels 3 to 5 and some elements will start more able pupils thinking about some aspects of level 6 work. It consists of a 27 - slide slideshow and systematically takes the pupils through the stages of planning, developing and reflecting. The whole slideshow contains enough material for 3 to 4, one hour lessons depending on ability. The whole slideshow need not be covered and has been designed so that it is easy to select any sections that are required. It has also been designed so that there are challenging questions for more able pupils but clicking to the next slide provides support for those who need it. Many of the slides are animated. The resource has been designed to be sufficiently versatile so as to be suitable as not only as an introduction to enquiry/investigation at secondary level but also for those pupils starting upon the transition from level 5 to level 6. It is full of tips on how to tackle the various parts of an enquiry which pupils will find beneficial for those enquiries they tackle in the future and for coping with enquiry-type questions in examinations. The lessons are easy to follow, enjoyable and easy to teach. Apparatus needed per group is a newtonmeter and a 1Kg mass. I suggest you have an idea of the 5 surfaces to be used in advance and have a selection of different size newtonmeters available. I use the lab floor, the bench, the carpet in the corridor, a wooden dissection board and a Perspex safety screen. Groups of 3 or 4 are ideal. Content Definitions of independent, dependent and control variable, fair test and reliability. The problem posed is “Does surface affect the amount of friction”. Planning the enquiry with a worksheet to accompany which includes peer assessment and pupil response to assessment. Identification of variables Writing a prediction Writing success criteria Designing a table What is an anomalous result and how to recognise it. Improvements Selection of the correct type of graph How to draw the perfect bar graph (animated) Reliability and bias Reflecting on success criteria and learning strategies. I hope your classes enjoy this and do as well as mine. Please remember to leave a review. Why not have a look at my shop? https://www.tes.com/teaching-resources/shop/penyrheol1

Versatile resource. A ten-question animated slideshow quiz with sound effects on eleven slides which also be used as an exit ticket activity. Each pupil has three cards A, B and C. They select the answer to a question and hold up the appropriate card before the answer to the question is revealed. This also provides instant feedback on pupil progress for the teacher and the opportunity for further explanation. It can also be used by pupils individually in a network room or loaded onto the school website for use as revision at home. Each slide shows the instructions reading time, thinking time, hold up your card and click for answer. Functions are timed but can be over-ridden by a mouse-click. This format was highly praised by inspectors. The quiz is available as a ppsx file so that it runs as a slideshow. The quiz is a part of a fully resource lesson which is also available.
