This writing frame is used to help pupils practice with their extended writing questions in Science. It uses smaller steps and leading questions for pupils to be able to answer the large question that they would see in the exam. The frame include keywords that the pupils should use in their answer and a picture in the center, either from the question itself or as a visual prompt. This is really useful for all pupils and ticks that literacy box!

Used for a low ability GCSE class. Starts with watching a video of Usain Bolt and recording his time every 10m throughout his 100m run. Simple graph drawn from these results. Collective memory task Going through how to interpret a distance-time graph using the collective memory results. Quick discussion on how to calculate speed from distance - time graph Pupils them calculate speed at different points from their Usain Bolt graph. UPDATE: video was missing, it is now hyperlinked on the screenshot of the video

This lesson introduces coral reefs and how humans are affecting them by using a comprehension starter. It then has a collective memory tasks where pupils learn about the environment in which coral reefs are found. It contains a link for a podcast with a few questions to ensure that pupils have listened and taken away the key points. The lesson then progresses into food chains, webs and energy transfer on coral reefs using Finding Nemo as an example. It contains a feed web game, which requires some printing, but little preparation. They then look at a Finding Nemo food web and discuss what would happen if characters were removed as well as energy transfer. For the homework pupils must use the simulation on explorelearning.com (the simulation is called the same as the worksheet title)

This is a low ability KS3 lesson with a Star Wars theme. Pupils begin by reading a magazine article from Young Scientist about Sir Isaac Newton (Pages 20-21). They write 2 things they found interesting about Sir Isaac and then 3 things that didn't know before about forces. Pupils then go over the equation for calculating spring constant. They then complete an experiment. Pupils create a graph and an extension is given to find the spring constant using the graph. Finally, they complete a gap fill and answer a question on units.

This is aimed at a low ability KS3 class. It has the theme of Star Wars. I would like to say that the Star Wars examples are from RichardBonser (https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/moments-levers-and-pivots-introduction-with-star-wars-11204405) Pupil begin by doing a wordsearch. They then go over the equation for a moment. The using examples they calculate moments. Pupils then discuss how changing the distance an affect the moment. Pupils complete some calculations and then do an experiment using meter rulers and wooden triangles. Finally they do a challenge question.

This is a low ability KS3 lesson, with the theme of Disney's Frozen. Pupils begin with a "Think, Pair and Share" of how they will obtain fresh water from salt water on a beach. They then go onto do the rock salt experiment, creating a solution and then separating the salt and water, for higher ability classes get them to capture the fresh water, rather than letting it evaporate. Pupils then go onto a chromatography practical. Use a number of different green pens (one being the sample) and get pupils to determine which green pen was used in a scenario. You could also demo distillation of ink. Pupils finally complete the "Purifying a Solid" clue task to revisit key terms. There is also an extended writing homework available.

This is a Jurassic Park themed lesson aimed at KS3 pupils. Pupils begin by thinking about the types of energy that enter and leave an object, they complete a worksheet for this. Pupils then are reminded about kinetic and potential energy, with examples. Leading on from this, pupils then complete a description of energy transfer on a rollercoaster, and describe the energy types and particular points. Useful and wasted energy is explained to the pupils, with a simplified diagram. Pupils then create similar diagrams for different things seen at a theme park. Finally pupils are then given one Olympic scenario each and have to draw an energy transfer diagram as an exit ticket. There is a homework where pupils use the Jurassic World website to create energy transfer diagrams of activities in different sections. There is also an online homework used as an extension of the rollercoaster task (https://phet.colorado.edu/en/simulation/energy-skate-park-basics).

This is a KS3 lesson with a Jurassic Park theme. Pupils begin by brainstorming ways that heat is lost in a house. They then do a QR hunt to research different types of insulation in buildings, I put mine up around the school or room in the places you would find that particular type of insulation. Pupils then write a letter to John Hammond describing how he could reduce heat loss in his park. Finally pupils attempt a QWC question using a writing frame.
