Physics resources, aiming to make equations accessible and easy to teach
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.
Velocity Time Graphs
emma_gillard1emma_gillard1

Velocity Time Graphs

(0)
Simple velocity time graphs where pupils practice reading graphs, calculating gradients and distance travelled by finding the area under a graph. Accompanying power point allows you to go through with pupils after activity.
V = IR Calculation Sheet
emma_gillard1emma_gillard1

V = IR Calculation Sheet

(0)
KS4 sheet (with answers) gradually getting harder for students to practice using Ohm’s Law. Questions then link in E=VQ and Q=IT for extra practice.
Electricity Equation Worksheet KS4
emma_gillard1emma_gillard1

Electricity Equation Worksheet KS4

(0)
Fully differentiated worksheet, with answers, for pupils to practice calculations using V=IR, V=E/Q and Q=It. Questions include rearranging the equation and converting units. Each question is worth a different number of points so students can challenge themselves. Perfect for a lesson or a homework.
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.
Plotting Line Graphs
emma_gillard1emma_gillard1

Plotting Line Graphs

(0)
Students practise plotting line graphs of data: task builds slowly from plotting points and drawing best fit lines, to constructing scales and using appropriate labels on axes. Final page tests graph interpretation, and question 3 can be adapted to suit your syllabus and your area. Has worked extremely well with KS3 and weak KS4 pupils in maths and science lessons.
Science investigation: Dissolving sugar in water
emma_gillard1emma_gillard1

Science investigation: Dissolving sugar in water

(0)
Planning sheet for students to carry out before, during and after an experiment to test solubility of sugar in water (can be adapted for your class). Contains work on scientific method, graph plotting and data collection. Has worked extremely well with KS3 and lower KS4 groups
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.
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.
Protons, Neutrons and Electrons grid
emma_gillard1emma_gillard1

Protons, Neutrons and Electrons grid

(0)
Grid worksheet for students to practise calculating the number of protons, neutrons and electrons in different elements from the periodic table. Grids get gradually harder allowing differentiated learning. Blank boxes at the bottom of the grids are for students to make up their own challenges for friends as extension tasks. Suitable for KS3, KS4 or revision KS5
Potential Difference, Energy and Charge worksheet
emma_gillard1emma_gillard1

Potential Difference, Energy and Charge worksheet

(0)
Worksheet for KS4 students (middle to high ability), where students can practice rearranging and using the equation V = E/Q, as well as reinforce Q=It which should have been taught previously. Questions become progressively harder and begin to link in other skills. Solutions are included on a separate sheet for pupils to mark afterwards.
Ray Diagram Student Helper sheet
emma_gillard1emma_gillard1

Ray Diagram Student Helper sheet

(0)
A sheet which helps students learn to construct ray diagrams: goes through the steps to draw rays for convex and concave lenses, then provides a guide as to describing the image.
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.
Rates of Reaction: Practical sheet + follow up
emma_gillard1emma_gillard1

Rates of Reaction: Practical sheet + follow up

(0)
A set of 2 worksheets which would make a two lesson programme. Sheet 1- Worksheet to go with a rates of reaction practical, varying surface area of marble chip (can be adjusted for any material, temperature, concentration etc). Students identify variables, collect data, plot a graph and write a conclusion for their experiment. Sheet 2- Worksheet guiding students through a write up of their investigation. Suitable for KS4 or KS3 pupils learning the scientific method or rates of reaction
