Bitesize Energy revision - Energy transfers and efficiency
Review please!
This is a worksheet in a series made to summarise and recap topics from GCSE Physics.
All worksheets are based on BBC bitesize pages with the same name, with a QR code to guide students to the correct page. All the answers to the front page can be found there.
There is then a 15 mark exam-style question to test their new knowledge. Every worksheet in the series is out of 15 so students can track their progress. I've used them with year 11, and set them as homework, that way they are forced to revise early!
This is designed to help revise for the Edexcel iGCSE in Physics, but is fairly universal and should fit with any exam board.
Includes PDFs for easy printing, and word documents for editing.
Practical Science Careers project
A series of 8 practical activities, put into the context of careers in Science. This is aimed at KS3 students, introducing some practical skills.
Aims of the project: To learn about some careers in Science, and to try some out. To develop investigation skills as required in the KS4 core practical’s included at GCSE.
Students get to experience being an Aerospace engineer by designing and testing paper planes, a Biochemist by testing urine samples, a Biomedical scientist by testing different anti bacterial soaps, a Chemical engineer by investigating recipes for bouncy balls, a Civil engineer by designing and testing bridges, a Forensic scientist by taking and analysing finger prints, a Mechanical engineer by making cotton reel motors, and a Pyrotechnic technician, by testing firework colours and making sparklers.
Each includes a job profile page to be filled out using the national careers service website to provide context for the lesson.
Also included is a handy technician guide.
This is designed to be handed out as a student booklet, with each career taking around 2 single hour lessons to complete, aimed at KS3 students. Students develop their investigation skills, as well as learning about some different careers in Science.
phUNO - the A-level Physics definition card game
Basically the same as the card game with a similar name, but this time, to play a card, you must correctly define the term on the card.
Forces students to learn their definitions. Works well as a revision activity game, or as a Christmas or Summer activity!
Just print, laminate and cut.
Includes Answer sheet.
The cards are also split into Year 12 and Year 13 definitions based on the AQA Physics spec, but these could easily be ignored.
I've also included an editable version.

Bitesize Energy revision - Renewable energy, fossil fuels and nuclear power
This is a worksheet in a series made to summarise and recap topics from GCSE Physics. This one has two versions for dual award and separate scientists.

Space exploration card sort
Students have the dates, events and names for 6 landmark events in the history of space exploration, they need to match them up. This comes with an answer sheet, and some answer slides to display with pictures.
This is a great start to the satellites topic, and puts the space topic into a human context.
Forces word loop game
A word loop game on forces.
Turn them into cards, and them out one per student (this is for 21 students). One person reads out a question, the student with the corresponding answer reads out the answer and their question etc. until you get back to the start.
Great as a plenary or recap starter.
Uncertainty in experiments
A summary of the Section 1 - Measurements and Their Errors topic on the AQA Physics A-level course.
Content will apply across different exam boards and includes the following:
SI Units
Calculating Uncertainty using precision
Calculating Uncertainty using range
Calculating Uncertainty using worst line of best fit.
Combining uncertainties.
Each includes some practice questions, and the answers are included int eh comment box in PPT.
I used this as part of revision in preparation for A level exams.
Momentum jigsaw puzzle
A giant puzzle using momentum equations.
Students cut out all the triangles, then match up solutions and questions to make a giant hexagon.
Report review form - helping students progress
A form to fill in with your tutees, to help them to set targets, based on their school reports.
Students have an opportunity to decide which subjects they need to work on, and set targets to help them do this.
Hydraulics and pressure in fluids
A differentiated worksheet, designed to help students to understand pressure in fluids and how simple hydraulic systems work.
Starts with a gap fill, ends with pressure calculations.
Stationary / Standing waves
My lesson on introduction to stationary / standing waves.
Talks students through the start of the topic, including asking them to draw waves moving in opposite directions to describe how they are formed.
Bacteria growth worksheet
Students interpret some petri dish bacteria growth results. Gets students to think about why these are difficult to interpret and what we can learn from this kind of experiment.
Angry birds momentum questions
A worksheet on momentum, all about angry birds.
Christmas Worksheet Science: Physics: Energy and Electricity
Some Christmas questions based on Physics knowledge, with answers.
This includes questions on:
Speed equation
Electrical power
Voltage, current and resistance
GPE
KE
Work done
Thermal energy transfers
Designed for Year 10 or 11.
Merry Christmas!
Simple chemical reaction word equations dice
Students make 2 dice, one with names of metals, one with 'oxygen', 'sulphur' and 'chlorine'. They roll the dice, and write out the word equations.
Nice introduction to word equations for KS3.
Naming salts worksheet
A differentiated worksheet to help students understand how salts are named, and practise writing word and symbol equations for reactions between:
metal oxides and acids,
alkalis and acids,
and metal carbonates and acids.
Floating or sinking, Archimedes' principle, density worksheet
A differentiated worksheet on why objects float or sink. The worksheet gets progressively harder, helping students to understand floating and sinking, and finally introducing the idea of calculating density.
Works for KS3, or as a reminder for KS4
