A brilliant little lesson that is a great visual, if you have a doorway and corridor to demo with it then its super handy, a ripple tank would also be a great demo, however there's everything you need on here to demonstrate how waves defract and reflect. https://www.tes.com/teaching-resources/shop/matthewharman777 Be weird, be funny, be gross, have fun, play, stick to your routines and find that little spark of madness we all have and electrocute the class with it! My style of teaching isn’t for everyone, I’m a dyslexic teacher who’s heard it all, my lessons are all catered towards accessibility (because if they were not I’d never be able to read them myself).

Students will explore the world of drone racing! A new high tech high speed world that even the most athletic students will buy into. Combining mobile tech, drones and computers, all students will relate to this one, they will have to examine a suite of drones, and choose which they would use to race with, would its battery last, which is the most efficient and which is the fastest (most powerful). Expand or extend the drone activity for both HA and LA students to ensure full understanding or differentiate by task for each calculation, either way, no’one will be left idle. https://www.tes.com/teaching-resources/shop/matthewharman777 Be weird, be funny, be gross, have fun, play, stick to your routines and find that little spark of madness we all have and electrocute the class with it!

A very simple visual reminder of how an average everyday lesson should go, this chart helps me to remember and prompt me into the correct paradigm during every lesson, it sits stuck to my desk and is there anytime my brain is just a little too tired to teach. An invaluable tool for any teacher, however I suspect for new teachers this may be an excellent planning and teaching prompt, so here it is!

Activities galore! this lesson has students running all over the place, full engagement and not much teacher talk at all, most students have a basic knowledge of the solar system and this lesson gives them a chance to lead the teaching in a way which is not always possible for KS3. Crank up the pace and then you just sit and chill. https://www.tes.com/teaching-resources/shop/matthewharman777 Be weird, be funny, be gross, have fun, play, stick to your routines and find that little spark of madness we all have and electrocute the class with it!

Things are always easier when its directly relatable and applicable, finding ways to improve the water quality of other school children around the world will hit a strong cord. Students will spend time trying to filter clean water through different methods that they create and then add them all to a big pot at the front. Then demo how its actually done, If you can pull the switch convincingly enough you could ‘drink’ from it to prove its clean. https://www.tes.com/teaching-resources/shop/matthewharman777 Be weird, be funny, be gross, have fun, play, stick to your routines and find that little spark of madness we all have and electrocute the class with it!

The culmination of this series, students are given free reign to seperate out iron filings, salt, sand and pebbles, to increase the challenge you can add wood chippings and for super high ability vegetable oil. Nothing teaches better than allowing student sto exercise and apply thier knowledge, you can easily differentiate by dropping clues and hints or even better you can make it accountable by weighing the mixtures before and the total of each pile after. https://www.tes.com/teaching-resources/shop/matthewharman777 Be weird, be funny, be gross, have fun, play, stick to your routines and find that little spark of madness we all have and electrocute the class with it!

I had a revalation for this lesson, get two of your most overt and dramatic kids, two piles of printer paper and get them to ram the piles together and BOOM, instant mountain range complete with stratified layers, take a picture, get the kids to sketch and its easily the simplest easiest way to get them to understand how orogeny works.

Get out the oscilloscope and practice your best Pete Tong impression, buzzing flies and revving motorbikes fun. Alternating current for the new AQA curriculum is rolled into the national grid model making it a little bit more of a stretch to get it all in, fortunately there's a lot of prior knowledge to build on and this lesson takes full advantage of that. Use a torch and a desk lamp in front of a visualiser and you can get a pretty decent demo of AC and DC current (the lamp flickers, the torch does not). https://www.tes.com/teaching-resources/shop/matthewharman777 Be weird, be funny, be gross, have fun, play, stick to your routines and find that little spark of madness we all have and electrocute the class with it!
