A comprehensive and enjoyable introduction to magnetism and electromagnets including an animated investigation into how increasing the number of turns on the coil increases the strength of an electromagnet.
What’s Covered
- Magnetic materials can be made into magnets.
- Iron, cobalt and nickel and their alloys are magnetic materials.
- Unlike poles attract and like pole repel.
- There is an invisible magnetic field around a magnet made up of field lines.
- Draw the field lines around a bar magnet.
- The closer together the field lines the stronger the magnetic field.
- Draw the field lines around two bar magnets with like and unlike poles facing.
- There are more field lines around the poles where the magnetic field is strongest.
- The magnetic field strength gets less as distance from the magnet increases.
- Field lines point away from the south pole and towards the north pole of a magnet.
- When a magnetic material is made into a magnet, the randomly facing domains all line up to point in the same direction.
- The Earth acts as though there as a south-type pole at magnetic north and a north-type pole at magnetic south.
- Explain how an electric bell, a circuit breaker and a relay work
What’s Included
- Animated PowerPoint for teaching with exit ticket quiz
- Answer/mark scheme PowerPoint

Current Electricity, Magnetism and Electromagnets - The Complete Module for KS3
This one-stop-shop for current electricity and magnetism takes middle school students from understanding the terms current, voltage and resistance and the relationship between them, through current and voltage in series and parallel circuits, resistance in conductors and insulators and how this is used to create components, Ohms Law, magnetism and electromagnets. The module is divided into 12 fully resourced, differentiated and engaging topics with the 12 animated PowerPoints and over 170 assorted printables which make even the more difficult concepts easy to understand. In eleven of the topics, after explaining the concept, the PowerPoint takes pupils through conducting and, where appropriate, designing an experiment with results tables. Pupils then explain their results using the theory they were taught at the start. Each PowerPoint ends with an animated class exit ticket quiz giving instant feedback on learning to both teacher and pupil. In the 40 worksheets/homeworks emphasis is placed on assessment for learning as each module comes with a detailed answer/mark scheme PowerPoint which make self-assessment and peer assessment easy. Each topic comes with a checklist for pupils to assess their progress on completion of the topic. Each topic comes with a one-page flow-chart lesson plan showing where logical choices between resources can be made enabling the teacher to totally bespoke lessons according to pupil ability, time available for the topic and focus of departmental/school policy Resources not used in the lesson can be additional homework or used for pre-examination revision. Many activities place an emphasis on literacy and oracy. These are identified on the flow-charts. **What You Get** * 12 Animated PowerPoints- each includes an exit ticket /plenary quiz * 12 Cut and stick * 12 Anticipation guide(starter and plenary) * 12 Flip Its * 11 sets of Taboo Cards * 11 Worksheets for practicals * 12 Fact sheets * 12 Foldables * 12 Fact Share Worksheets * 39 Differentiated homework/classwork worksheets * 12 PowerPoints with answers /detailed mark schemes for homework/classwork * 12 Flow chart lesson plan * Exit ticket template * ABC card template **Sequence of Topics** * Current, Voltage and Resistance * Conductors and Insulators * Circuits and Symbols * Lamps in Series and Parallel * Current in Series and Parallel * Voltage in Series and Parallel * Does the Number of Batteries Affect Current?

Magnetism - Magnets and Electromagnets Explained - Classroom, Distance and Blended Learning for KS3
The two packs in this resource allow the same lesson to be taught to students whether they are in a classroom or distance learning at home. It facilitates blended learning and provides equality of opportunity for vulnerable students who are unable to attend school due to Covid-19. The classroom resource consists of an animated 45- slide PowerPoint and 15 varied and exciting printables including a foldable, cut-and-stick and progress check. The one-page flowchart lesson plan shows where choices can be made between the printables so that the teacher can select the activities to suit the exact needs of their class. The distance learning pack consists of a 90 - slide animated PowerPoint which, not only teaches the science but also how to gain maximum benefit from distance learning. The PowerPoint has been designed to replace the teacher by providing structure, sequence, knowledge and answers. Additional worksheets, cut-outs, foldable and progress check provide a familiar medium for students to develop and test their knowledge, continue to develop their literacy skills and use their creativity to organise their learning and assess their progress. These can be printed off by the student or provided by school. There is also a short digital test/homework which can be returned to the teacher. A shortened photocopiable PDF of the PowerPoint is provided to circulate to those pupils without computers. **What’s Covered** * Magnetic materials can be made into magnets. * Iron, cobalt and nickel and their alloys are magnetic materials. * Unlike poles attract and like pole repel. * There is an invisible magnetic field around a magnet made up of field lines. * Draw the field lines around a bar magnet. * The closer together the field lines the stronger the magnetic field. * Draw the field lines around two bar magnets with like and unlike poles facing. * There are more field lines around the poles where the magnetic field is strongest. * The magnetic field strength gets less as distance from the magnet increases. * Field lines point away from the south pole and towards the north pole of a magnet. * When a magnetic material is made into a magnet, the randomly facing domains all line up to point in the same direction. * The Earth acts as though there as a south-type pole at magnetic north and a north-type pole at magnetic south. * Explain how an electric bell, a relay and a circuit breaker work. **For more high quality resources visit:** [Elf Off the Shelf Resources](https://www.tes.com/teaching-resources/shop/penyrheol1)
