The wide range of activities in the lesson which include exam questions with explained answers and quiz competitions will motivate the students whilst they evaluate and assess their knowledge of the content and recognise those areas which will require further attention. The lesson has been designed to cover as many parts of the topic as possible, but the following sub-topics have been given a particular focus: The properties of solids, liquids and gases Conduction, convection and radiation Melting and boiling points Boiling vs evaporation Specific latent heat The structure and action of liquid-in-glass thermometers The use of thermocouples Specific heat capacity The mathematical elements of the topic are covered throughout the lesson and students are given helpful hints to support them in structuring their answers. This resource can be used at the end of the topic or in the lead up to the mocks or the actual IGCSE terminal examinations.
