This booklet is set out lesson by lesson. Students can either take this home and do it themselves or you can go through it question by question in class.
There are a variety of differentiated activities and the activities are all different.
Content covered:
Radiation in medicine (PET scans)
Intensity
How eyes work
Lenses and the lens equation
Sight problems
Distance and image height PCA
Reflection
Refraction
Critical angle
Total internal reflection
Using reflection and refraction (ultrasounds)
Resource contains scheme of work with technician notes and specification objectives to be covered (these are from the exam spec). Practical notes to technicians are also included so you know what equipment to order each time.
Lesson 1 - Energy recap from Paper 5 (Topic 3)
Lesson 2 - Work and Power including mini practical
Lesson 3 - Forces affecting each other including mini practical.
Lesson 4 (HIGHER TIER ONLY) - Vector diagrams including a silly example the students will (hopefully) love. Minealways remember the ‘rubber duck lesson’.
Lesson 5 (TRIPLE ONLY) - Turning forces (Moments, levers and gears).
16 questions (including a tie breaker) on and around the holiday of Easter. The quiz includes all answers at the end and is suitable for students to do in teams or individually. The quiz should take about 20 minutes to complete and mark.

Full unit of work covering both Higher and foundation as well as the separate sciences for the new GCSE physics course for Edexcel (9-1).
Mentioned worksheets or activities are included, as well as a specification for technicians to help with equipment orders and requisitions.
Where possible, all lessons are fully resources and differentiated. I have used these lessons with a top set triple award class, and a bottom set combined group.
Test assessments are includes, but they are just a mix of the questions given by Pearson, so I cannot claim ownership of these. They have been separated into sections to give a PLC for each student for revision purposes.
Writing frame to help pupils in KS3 or bottom set GCSE groups get to grips with how to write parts of an investigation.
Pink sections are the higher tier sections. Pupils can work up to these.
My year 9s and my year 11s love this challenge.
The idea behind it is that the pupils will really get to grips with the protons, neutrons and electrons of each element so they can correctly answer questions about ions, bonding and electronic configuration. This is coming in earlier in the new Edexcel specification!
I give pupils 3 minutes for this activity. If it cannot be done in that time, they haven't grasped it yet! They do it as a starter or a plenary, and all begin at the same time. It works well as a mini test where they race against each other (or even you) to be the first one to finish with them all correct. They can even mark each others!
When they finish one challenge (95% correct or more) they move on to the next one. I use school rewards for when they advance and I have also included a certificate that I have given to the ones who complete all 3. This can obviously be modified to reflect you and your class.
