Forces and Energy Lesson 7 - Weight, mass and gravity

(0)
The lesson starts with a series of questions to illicit prior understanding of the students. There is then an explanation of gravity and the calculations extensively modelled. After that the students get an opportunity to select from a series of tasks and opt to work, this is outcome differentiated via gold, silver, bronze tasks. The students then complete a hinge point question (AFL) that directs them to 1 of 3 differentiated tasks, there is a purple (high order thinking) task available for the students to move onto once their tasks are completed. The lesson concludes with an exit ticket and a rag of LO.

This Ofsted Outstanding format is a great way to engage student is self assessment rather than the meaningless and superficial marking that arbitrarily occurs 3-4 times per term. Make formative assessment count! The lesson start by a think - pair - share activity to engage student in what it mean to be successful. The lesson then explains what a 6 mark question is in the new GCSE. There is then a hinge question which assesses prior understanding and differentiated the question for the next task. The students can then use the success criteria to attempt a GCSE style 6 mark question. After that the class reviews some of the lower level question model answers against the mark scheme and give them a medal (WWW) and a mission (EBI). The student then mark their own answers against the corresponding mark scheme giving themselves a medal and mission. The lesson concludes with them redrafting their own answer to include the improvements.

Forces and Energy Lesson 1 - Forces introduction: independent learning of forces

(0)
This is a constructive observation/ practical lesson that offers the student the choice of task as to gain a better response and effort from the child. The lesson starts with a review of how homework help exam performance, it then moves on to the students identifying for themselves what 3 things a force can do to a lump of Plasticine. The lesson swiftly moves to another independent identification of 8 key forces via a differentiated worksheet. The lesson concludes with an exit ticket.

Forces and Energy lesson 2: Contact and non-contact forces.

(1)
The lesson is highly differentiated and focuses on allowing the student a degree of choice as to which tasks to complete. The lessons starts with a DO it Now activity which has two options for the students to choose, an easy and a harder, this demonstrates stretch and challenge. The central activity to the lesson get the students up and reviewing different forces and coming up with examples. Knowledge is shown via a Blooms pyramid activity. The lesson finishes in an exit ticket.

Year 8 Mastery- Waves and Electricity- Lesson 1. Transverse waves

(0)
Mastery Scheme of Work: Waves and Electricity- lesson 1 The lesson focuses on a simple wave model, the students build a wave machine to illicit ideas about wave movement. This is followed by a hinge question which differentiated the out come and allows students to formulate their own ideas at an appropriate level for them. The lessons concludes with a demonstrate activity followed by an Exit ticket.

Electricity This mini scheme of work builds through the basics need for students preparing for GCSE science. It starts very basic with building series and parallel circuits and builds up to looking at currents and electron flow, topics necessary for the new 2017 GCSE. Lesson 1: Drawing and building simple circuits Lesson 2: Comparing series and parallel circuits Lesson 3: Comparing current and voltage Lesson 4: Experimenting to see how current flows Lesson 5: Conduction in different materials Lesson 6: Demonstrating learning with a team building challenge This resources has had over 12000 downloads on TES resources and rated 5*.
