This lesson covers all of AQA GCSE Physics 4.5.6.1.4 / Combined Science 6.5.4.1.4. As a Secondary Science teacher, Deputy Headteacher, writer and examiner for many years I make high quality no-prep lessons so busy teachers can teach outstanding lessons without spending hours planning. This high quality lesson includes explanations, different types of in-lesson assessment (all with answers) and unique exam questions. My lessons are ideal for non-Physicists - as a Biologist who retrained as a Physics teacher I know how to take learners on a journey that builds up their understanding step by step, while still going into a lot of depth. The preview video shows a representative sample of slides from the resource so that you get a good idea of what it includes before you buy. What’s Included: • Teaching notes • Starter / Do Now Activity • Explanation slides in “chunked” sections with animated diagrams. • Worked examples of calculations / questions. • Multiple questions in different question styles and difficulties - no need for worksheets. Each “chunked” explanation section typically includes a set of “learning check / quick questions” followed by a set of in-depth questions on the learning from that “chunk” of the lesson. All questions have answers. • Exam-style questions on the whole lesson at the end of the lesson- these are unique, based on real exam questions but not just copied from exam boards. • Answers for all questions • All easily editable to adapt to your teaching or to use in existing lessons. • Slightly humorous, at points, if you like that sort of thing. The lesson was written for AQA GCSE Science / Physics but is very likely to be applicable to other exam specifications. Please leave a rating / review and all other feedback gratefully received!

Complete No-Prep lesson with exam questions, tasks and answers on Work Done and Energy Transfer for AQA GCSE (9-1) Science / Physics. This lesson fully covers the GCSE Physics exam spec 4.5.2 / Combined Science 6.5.2 in the Forces topic. Note: This lesson sits within the Forces topic, however some of the content overlaps slightly with parts of the power lesson in the Energy topic, as work done is mentioned in the exam spec at that point as well.

Revision Density, Changes of State and Particle Model

(0)
This revision resource covers Changes of State and The Particle Model which * AQA Advance Exam Info for 2022 identifies as a “major focus” for both Combined Science and Physics, for both tiers. AQA GCSE Exam Spec: Combined Science 6.3.1 / Physics 4.3.1 which includes Density (4.3.1.1) and Changes of State (4.3.1.2) both linked to the Particle Model of Matter. This revision sheet can be printed in black and white. The questions are the same as those in my resources below, however those resources contain answers as well as further “exam style” questions. The revision sheet works well with the lesson resources that can be found here: https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/resource-12582100 https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/resource-12582133
