  • Shân Wareing – Types of Power, 1999

There are some references to AQA-style A Level specification questions, but you can adapt these if needs be. These can be found on slides 58-66. Lesson 9 is based on an AQA A Level question.

The final lesson is a consolidation activity complete with guided revision cards. Alternatively, you could use an app such as Quizlet so that the students could produce digital revision resources.
