Fabulous "Moon crash" activity. Lesson and worksheets - everything you need. All ages. As featured in the TES moon landing commemoration edition.

Half-life for IGCSE based upon the authors recent artcile in "My Best lesson" in the TES. Full instructions and presentation for a top of the range radioactive half-life lesson. Feel free to adapt the Disease (MrPorteritis) that is running rampant in Warsaw (or your own town) to model radioactive decay using spreadsheets.

Everything they need for A level or IB. Presentation, worksheet and answers. Written by experienced (26 years) Physics teacher. Humour too!

Written originally for IB, this can be used for A level too. Students are taken step by step through the Raleigh criteria and example problems. There is a practical activity and worksheet. Written (with humour) by a very experienced (26 years!) Physics teacher.

Presentation and all the worksheets and practicals you need to teach density. KS3 or GCSE. This presumes you have some material blocks and access to basic equipment (measuring cylinders etc).

Presentation introduces how to measure speed (distance/time) and students measure some "fun" speeds (the speed of someone walking to a boring class, speed of someone walking to a fun class, speed of a drip going down the window etc). They are then introduced to speed calculations and there is a worksheet (that should be personalised with your class names - they love that!). Presentation is in a humorous style with fun pictures.

Presentation and activities (using PHET simulations) for IGCSE gas pressure.

Presentation outlining what a force is, contact and non-contact forces. They then do a measuring forces activity (the spreadsheet contains a copy of the results table) before leading into a friction of different surfaces investigation. The Powerpoint contains humour and was written by a (very!) experienced Physics teacher. Could also be used in year 7.

Students investigate the effect of adding resistances together in parallel using pencil lines on the worksheet. Will need standard multimeters to do this task. Includes PowerPoint, activity sheet and question sheet. Ideal for GCSE or A level/IB. Written by experienced Physics teacher (26 years!!).

Introduction to waves at GCSE/A level. This starts with an activity where they write a poem (!) to pre-assess words they already know. The PowerPoint then introduces the different measurements of a wave (frequency, amplitude etc) before introducing the wave equation (speed = frequency x wavelength) and a worksheet that uses the equation. It is handy to demonstrate the different types of waves (sound, light, slinky and even a Mexican wave in the class!)

The "True of false" opening activity is a great way to assess their understanding before the lesson starts. Emphasise throughout the lesson that gravity is a force between ALL objects (many students have been taught lower down the school that gravity is only what pulls them to the earth). The work sheet should give a good assessment of the understanding of the lesson. The last two questions will really stretch their (and maybe their teacher's!) understanding.

Suitable for KS3 and KS4. PowerPoint presentation with worksheets on using the formula for GPE and KE. I have a running joke in my lessons about my dislike of dogs - hence the dog falling from the aeroplane! Please feel free to change for a cat/politician/Biology teacher.........

Presentation and 2 worksheets for moments in KS3 or GCSE.

Useful for KS3 or KS4. Includes a nice exercise using the final bobsleigh run from "Cool Runnings" which is available on YouTube.

Mr Porter's amazing "Revise by writing" sheet. Students have to use 47 words to describe various pictures - convection, terminal velocity, latent heat, etc. Once you've seen the idea and used the sheet you can apply this to just about any topic (in Chem and Bio too).

Suitable for all levels, KS2, KS3 or KS4 (let's presume by KS5 they've got it!). Ask the class to name each symbol before revealing the answer. Some funny "symbols" too! Finish by constructing some simple circuits around the class and getting the class to draw them as diagrams in a "circus" style activity.

Good starter or finish to a revision lesson. Students can either do thumbs up/down, hold up cards or move to different sides of the room. Good assessment exercise too.

EVERYTHING you need to teach this topic. Would be very useful for A levels teachers too.

This could be used at KS3, 4 or even 5 level. A fun practical using multimeters and pencil lines to measure the relationship between resistance and length.

Lesson PowerPoint and worksheet on the difference between evaporation and boiling and the factors which affect the rate of evaporation.
