Short power point presentation to teach safety when handling electricity. Students can prepare information in a poster or in their workbook following the guidelines. This resource is for Science year 7. Unit 7J in Exploring Science.
A bunch of slides with class rules, safety rules in the lab, lab equipment, hazard labels…to be used for the first lesson with your students. Adapt it to your needs or your subject.
This power point guides students (mainly year 7 Science) through a model of electricity. They can also create in pairs their own model paying attention to represent the different parts in a circuit.
Roadmap to show the year overview in Science Y8 following CIE Checkpoint. I use it as a poster so that students can follow the scheme of work for the school year in a simplistic way.
The traffic lights (end of unit tests) show the unit number with a colour code depending on the science.
I have included a printable version and an editable version so that it can be tailored to fit other textbooks.
Feedback would be very appreciated as I would like it to be useful for my students so if you find something wrong or missing do let me know.
This power point shows some basic activities to be done with the app iCircuit. It is a great opportunity for KS3 science students as the can build easily parallel and series circuits and then some more complex ones with more components. The last slide offers a final task about Galvani and Volta’s work.
Equip your students with all the tools they need to master line graphs and bar charts this easy-to-use power point presentation designed specifically for Science KS3 students.
What’s Included:
Tips for creating the perfect graph.
WAGOLL (What A Good One Looks Like): step by step
Activities: Hands-on exercises to reinforce learning and build confidence.
Reflective Questions: Thought-provoking questions to deepen understanding and promote metacognition.
I am currently using these resources with my year 8s during a lesson and half. I hope it helps.
Everything you need to deliver 4 activities related to motion. Easily adaptable and suitable for Year 7- 9. The slides for each activity include the apparatus needed, method and results. They are about 40 minutes long approximately.
Walking with style: students to work out their walking speed. It can be done in a distance learning lesson.
Be the teacher!: students to prepare a battery of questions and swap them. It can be done in a distance learning lesson.
Speed investigations: the typical practical with slopes and toy cars.
The graph of a journey: the students build a distance/time graph from a short story.
These activities can be used alongside any KS3 SOW.

This revision guide covers the key ideas in clear notes for your Physics KS3 students. I use them for revision sessions in year 8 and I also give them to students to help them study independently.
It includes these topics:
• Speed.
• Light.
• Sound.
• Diagrams and some speed problems: blank diagrams for revision.
• It also includes a short breakout room game developed in genially that is easily editable.
4 files are included:
• Power point with the revision guide (fully editable) and a pdf to print it.
• Power point with the revision guide without colours (fully editable) and a pdf to print it in a more environmentally friendly way.
Feel free to contact me if you have any doubt.
Everything you need to deliver the physics unit of speed for Year 8. Easily adaptable and suitable for Year 7 and 9, and for distance learning approach.
The topic is divided in 6 parts:
How fast? Measuring speed: learning objectives+ lesson + basic activities to practice speed calculations.
Speed check: learning objectives+ lesson with video about light gates + a think-pair-share activity and a mini-plenary
Patterns of movement: learning objectives+ lesson
Distance-time graphs: learning objectives+ lesson + 3 examples + mini-plenary
End of unit questions: 5 representative activities for students to feel confident.
Revision: 25 minutes of revision activities + slides to check the proper answers. It can be used as a revision or assessment
Check the slides’ notes for suggestions, answers or extra info. Coincides with Cambridge Checkpoint textbook/scheme of work, but can be used alongside any other SOW.
It includes a document with the main objectives of the unit for students to revise and use it as checklist.

Please, contact me if you have any doubt. Constructive feedback would be much appreciated!
Everything you need to deliver the unit about light in KS3. Each unit part includes a slide with the main learning objectives.
The topic is divided in 8 parts:
How light travels: starter slide with a video + explanatory slide + plenary slide.
How shadows form: explanatory slide.
How reflections form: 2 explanatory slides + exit ticket plenary.
How light bends: explanatory slide + plenary slide.
The spectrum of white light: starter slide + explanatory slide + plenary slide
Coloured light: 2 explanatory slides + activity slide
End of unit questions with 4 activities + answers.
Revision: includes a sudden death quiz + 35 minutes of revision activities + slides to check the proper answers. It can be used as a revision or assessment.
Coincides with Cambridge Checkpoint textbook/scheme of work but can be used alongside others.
There are 5 more files:
• Word document for the exit ticket based on an Instagram post
• Power point with the unit targets for students to revise + printable version in pdf
• Power point with sudden death quiz + show version to share with students.
Please, DM me if you have any doubt or you would like me to share some assessments. Constructive feedback would be much appreciated.
Everything you need to deliver all the lessons for the first term in Science. It includes all the lessons for three units (plants, states of matter and speed), it also includes practical activities. Do not hesitate to contact me if you have any doubt.
