Starter task, green pen. Revision from previous topics
Main –
Recap types of waves, and key points from last topic, students fill in the gaps.
Explain journey of the wave focusing on the wave is coming from a source and being absorbed
Students stick in EM spectrum, label their spectrum as you go through and label key properties. Extension question for students if other students are slow to label
Chart with uses of EM waves, to engage and show students we use these all the time, they will study these in future lessons. Discuss visible light and explain this is the only wavelength that can be seen, mention wavelengths of visible light
A very annoying, yet catchy video, to try and reinforce the order of the waves.
Worksheet from kerboodle physics foundation workbook P.77. Recap learning for the day and summaries the lesson.
