Energy stores and conservation KS3. (Teaches KS3 to agree with GCSE 9-1 spec).

KS3 Energy and conservation of energy - complete lesson, ready to use, pick up and go.

This KS3 lesson teaches energy stores in the new way required for GCSE 9-1 spec - so it builds the correct foundation for KS4. This supports good student progress and avoids confusing them by teaching them the old ideas about energy at KS3 (e.g. light is an energy store, sound is energy etc) and then the new ones at GCSE (9-1 specification).

By the end of the lesson learners will

• (ALL) Understand what energy is.
• (ALL) Know the unit of energy.
• (ALL) Be able to name the 8 energy stores (as per new 9-1 GCSE requirements)
• (MOST) Understand what each store is and identify them in the world around them.
• (MOST) Explain that energy transfers from one store to another
• (SOME) Demonstrate an understanding of the law of conservation of energy.
