A full 1 hour lesson designed for a mixed ability year 8 class.
This is the 1st lesson in “Chapter 1 - Electricity and Magnetism” from Activate 2, Physics.
This lesson should be suitable to teach to any KS3 Physics class, even by those where physics is not their specialism.
This lesson contains a number of practical demonstrations on static electricity (comb bending water, balloon and hair, balloon rolling a can).

From this lesson, students should be able to:

  • Label an atom and describe the charge of each subatomic particle
  • Describe how charged particles interact (attract and repel)
  • Describe how objects become charged
  • Explain what causes static electricity

All of my lesson resources contain:

  • A 5-in-5 retrieval-style starter
  • An interesting lesson hook, careers link, or retrieval practice to start the lesson
  • Teacher input slides with dual coding and reduced cognitive load
  • Teacher models
  • Regular ‘check for understanding’ slides, such as hand signals quizzes
  • Regular student independent practice slides, with optional scaffolds, challenges and answer slides
  • A plenary task
