Physics resources, aiming to make equations accessible and easy to teach
Electricity: Current and Charge calculation
emma_gillard1emma_gillard1

Electricity: Current and Charge calculation

(0)
Differentiated worksheet where students practise using and rearranging Q=It, equation to calculate charge flowing in a circuit. All answers provided. Extension tasks are provided to stretch upper end of class, while earlier questions provide lots of repetition with calculations.
Averages and graph drawing skills in science
emma_gillard1emma_gillard1

Averages and graph drawing skills in science

(0)
Worksheet where students calculate the mean of a set of data, then apply skills to a scientific context. Students are given an experiment and then asked to identify variables, calculate averages of the data, plot a graph and interpret the experiment. Suitable for KS3 classes.
Writing a method: Science
emma_gillard1emma_gillard1

Writing a method: Science

(1)
Fully scaffolded task, with extension activities, where students are supported in writing a scientific method for a practical. Gives sentence starters and highlights key words. Perfect for a homework / independent task. Chosen practical is biology but good for general science methodology and literacy skills.
Trigonometry (SOHCAHTOA) Worksheet
emma_gillard1emma_gillard1

Trigonometry (SOHCAHTOA) Worksheet

(0)
Fully differentiated worksheet going from identifying opposite, adjacent and hypotenuse on a triangle, to rearranging SOHCAHTOA to find missing sides. Each question sheet has hints on the back, and answers at the end of the ppt. Students can self select depending on their confidence, or teachers can guide pupils to identify their levels.
Equation worksheet: Kinetic energy, GPE and energy transfers
emma_gillard1emma_gillard1

Equation worksheet: Kinetic energy, GPE and energy transfers

(0)
Fully differentiated KS4 equation grid with lots of questions about KE, GPE and energy transfers. Different questions are worth different numbers of points, pupils choose questions appropriate for their level. Good for homeworks: have to earn 15 points to pass or similar. In lessons excellent practice, includes mark scheme which can be put on board, pupils self mark then hands up to gauge number of points for each student.
Distance speed time and acceleration equation grid
emma_gillard1emma_gillard1

Distance speed time and acceleration equation grid

(0)
Fully differentiated worksheet for KS4 pupils to practice using the v s t and acceleration equations. Each category on the grid is worth a different number of points, excellent for class activity or homework. Suitable for higher ability pupils but easily adaptable just by changing the questions on the grid.
Momentum and Impulse equation grid
emma_gillard1emma_gillard1

Momentum and Impulse equation grid

(0)
Fully differentiated KS4 worksheet for using momentum and impuse equations. Each level of question is worth a different number of points, pupils work at their own level. Mark scheme included, pupils can self mark and assess by asking how many points everyone in the class got.
Electricity equation grid KS4
emma_gillard1emma_gillard1

Electricity equation grid KS4

(0)
Fully differentiated grid of questions for KS4 electricity equations, harder questions are worth more points on the grid. Gets pupils to rearrange equations with the help of equation triangles, and convert units. Suitable for lower ability pupils but easily adapted.
Specific Latent Heat and SHC worksheet
emma_gillard1emma_gillard1

Specific Latent Heat and SHC worksheet

(0)
Differentiated worksheet where students have to first identify definitions of latent heats of fusion and vaporisation and SHC, then identify whether energy will be given out or taken in in state changes. Finally differentiated equation grid where students practice using initially the SLH equation, then combining with the SHC equation to calculate energy changes for more complex systems. Suitable for any ability KS4.
Power and Transformers
emma_gillard1emma_gillard1

Power and Transformers

(0)
KS4 electricity worksheet, differentiated calculations on power using P=VI, then gap-fill task regarding power transmission and step-up and step-down transformers. Heavily scaffolded, suitable for lower ability pupils.
Group 1 Metals: Worksheet
emma_gillard1emma_gillard1

Group 1 Metals: Worksheet

(0)
Worksheet for students watching the group 1 metal demonstration: assumes prior knowledge of electron confguration. Activities include word and symbol equations for reactions and explaining the reactivity series of group 1 metals with reference to electron configuation.
Circuit Rules: worksheet
emma_gillard1emma_gillard1

Circuit Rules: worksheet

(0)
Worksheet to accompany a computer room lesson / to complete as homework. Pupils create circuits using an online simulation, then measure P.D and current to identify circuit rules for themselves. Questions at the bottom test what they have learnt. A very good alternative to tricky (and often faulty) electricity practical work, or for a revision lesson.
KS3 Electricity: Charge, Current, PD and Resistance
emma_gillard1emma_gillard1

KS3 Electricity: Charge, Current, PD and Resistance

(0)
A series of 4 lessons on the atom and charge (see accompanying worksheet), current, potential difference and resistance. Contains definitions, activities such as gap fills and definitions, ideas for practical activities and links to helpful simulations. Suitable for a lower ability KS3 group however could be adapted for higher groups.
Series Circuit Rules
emma_gillard1emma_gillard1

Series Circuit Rules

(0)
Worksheet for series circuit rules for KS4 GCSE: current, PD and resistance questions. Start simple and get harder as the sheet progresses, gets students to check their own work by using different methods for calculations. Suitable for middle to higher ability KS4 classes but could be scaffolded for use with low sets. Answers are included for students to mark their own work.
Force and Motion: Whole unit Powerpoint
emma_gillard1emma_gillard1

Force and Motion: Whole unit Powerpoint

(0)
Powerpoint containing whole class tasks as well as individual work on: mass and weight Newton’s laws Balanced and unbalanced forces Buoyancy, thrust and types of forces (contact and non-contact) Force diagrams Speed and acceleration Distance time graphs Speed time graphs Density Suitable for KS4 or KS5 revision.
Electromagnetic Spectrum worksheet
emma_gillard1emma_gillard1

Electromagnetic Spectrum worksheet

(0)
Worksheet where students use the electromagnetic spectrum to identify properties and patterns of each type of wave, then practice wavespeed, wavelength and frequency calculations.
