I made a PowerPoint a few years back on how to make a resistor with pencils. Here are (differentiated) instructions explaining to students how to carry out the investigation. Included is the original publisher file if you want to edit it. If you don't have publisher a PDF is also included! To do this experiment you will need a digital multimeter that can measure resistance.

This is an introduction to parallel and series circuits for non specialsit physics teacher. Included with the powerpoint slide is a worksheet, and how to set up the practical, with troubleshooting. The jpeg files are previews of the slides and what the equipment looks like. Great resource for NQTs, PGCE students and non specialists.

Two page revision guide the conservation of energy. Types of energy, kinetic energy, gravitational potential energy. Includes practice question, worked questions, and answer page for practice questions.

1 page resource on photoelectric effect. Suitable for A Level and IB Physics.

1page of revision notes for A Level and IB Physics students covering Leptons.

1 page revision guide on kinematics (suvat equations) with two practice problems.

Students use their knowledge of Newton’s Law of Gravitation and circular motion to answer the following question: How many times a day do astronauts on the International Space Station see the sun rise? With worked solution.

Two pages that help students structure how to write a scientific investigation. The aim of the investigation is to determine the refractive index of a perspex block.

Aimed at IB DP students studying topic 8, but also suitable for A Level physics and higher ability GCSE/IGCSE students: Presentation and questions covering: Energy sources, renewable and non-renewable energy sources, efficiency, Sankey diagrams, energy density, specific heat capacity.

Three high quality images (printable to at least A3 size) to display the equations and uses of Newton's Law of Gravitation. A PowerPoint of the images along with worked examples. The worked examples are included as a stand alone worksheet as well. (Answers to worksheet are on the PowerPoint).

One side revision guide covering the definitions of Specific Heat Capacity and Latent heat. With three common examples and worked solutions

17 jpg images on the Solar System. Explaining some of the bits of the Solar System are often forgotten! All images are courtesy of NASA and are free to reuse for commercial and non commercial uses.

Aimed for non-specialist physics teachers (or new teachers) who are teaching GCSE physics. A guided walk-though of how to measure the specific heat capacity of different metals. Includes teacher instruction sheet, and a student investigation sheet.

Practical on how to measure the refractive index of a perspex or glass block. Step by step instructions (with lots of images) included on how to set up the experiment, as well as slide show of images showing how to set up the experiment for your class. Also included are student instructions.

A revision booklet for KS5 or KS4 Electricity, focusing on the potential divider.

High quality images and displays for AS/A2 and IB Physics particicle physics topics. Includes displays of the particle zoo, feynman diagrams and the rules for the laws of conservation. Included with the images are editable PowerPoint files.
