A full 1 hour lesson designed for a mixed ability year 7 class.
This is the sixth and final lesson in “Chapter 1 - Forces” from Activate 1, Physics. This lesson is on balanced and unbalanced forces.
This lesson should be suitable to teach to any KS3 Physics class, even by those where physics is not their specialism.
This lesson (and all lessons in this unit) is designed to be interactive and engaging, with plenty of real world examples and independent tasks.

From this lesson, students should be able to:

  1. Explain what is meant by the terms ‘balanced forces’ and ‘unbalanced forces’
  2. To draw force diagrams showing balanced and unbalanced forces acting on an object
  3. To describe how unbalanced forces can cause objects to change motion

All of my lesson resources contain:

  • A 5-in-5 retrieval-style starter
  • An interesting lesson hook, careers link, or retrieval practice to start the lesson
  • Teacher input slides with dual coding and reduced cognitive load
  • Teacher models
  • Regular ‘check for understanding’ slides, such as hand signals quizzes
  • Regular student independent practice slides, with optional scaffolds, challenges and answer slides
  • A plenary task
