This worksheet is for density calculations at GCSE. It contains a pupil worksheet with blanks and a teachers sheet with answers. The harder questions reference vernier callipers and micrometers which are in the density core practical.
This is a standard format for physics calculations, to be used in class to introduce and practise each formula. These have been honed on lower set pupils and allows differentiation in the following way:
Page 1 Notes and examples completed with the teacher
Page 2 Table, allows pupils to practise using the formula and manipulating it
Page 2 Table, higher order skills for stronger pupils include s.f. and prefixes
Page 2 Questions, these get harder as you work down the questions.
The expectation is that this activity can stop when some pupils have finished the final questions, as this will still have allowed all pupils to practise problem solving. The answers can be given so pupils can complete questions for revision at the end of the top if they didn’t complete all the questions in class.
There is a pdf version and a .docx version that is editable.
This worksheet is for latent heat of vaporisation and latent heat of fusion calculations at GCSE. It contains a pupil worksheet with blanks and a teachers sheet with answers.
This is a standard format for physics calculations, to be used in class to introduce and practise each formula. This has two very similar formats to help make the link between the similarity of the latent heat formulas. One page for each formula and then the teachers version.
There is a pdf version and a .docx version that is editable.

Density
Latent Heat or Vaporisation and Fusion

This is a standard format for physics calculations, to be used in class to introduce and practise each formula. These have been honed on lower set pupils and allows differentiation in the following way for the SHC and Density Sheet:
Page 1 Notes and examples completed with the teacher
Page 2 Table, allows pupils to practise using the formula and manipulating it
Page 2 Table, higher order skills for stronger pupils include s.f. and prefixes
Page 2 Questions, these get harder as you work down the questions.
The density sheet includes the use of vernier callipers and micrometers to test resolution.
The pressure sheet includes a test for inversely proportional variables using both data from a table and a line of best fit from a graph.
This worksheet introduces random errors, how to reduce them, and two timing practicals to practice reducing random errors. Works well in Physics Forces and Motion topic when measuring time to calculate speed.
The apparatus required for the two practicals are:
Measure time for an object to fall 1 m: class set of 1m rulers, objects to drop, timers, calculators
Measure the time for a pendulum or swing to oscillate (swing back and forth once): a pendulum or swing, timers, calculators.
Great short lesson activity and the interactive element keeps it interesting and relevant.
This excellent revision resource condenses the whole GCSE Physics topic of magnetism and electromagnetism into 1 page. For an activity students can use this google based webpage to watch youtube clips about each topic, then complete past paper questions. https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1kyg7TNPEF12zKbYuIJlXK4dXbv3qq2_0kvRpBJJQiGQ/preview?slide=id.p
This topic includes the following:
Magnetic Fields
Induced Magnets
Motor Effect
Electric Motors
Electromagnetism
Electromagnets
Generator Effect
Alternators and Dynamos
National Grid
Step up and Step Down Transformers
Loudspeakers and Headphones
Microphones
Students do not need to make their own notes, though they can make flash cards if they want to make notes to test themselves. This page of condensed notes with specially drawn diagrams breaks this topic down into 12 sections for students to work through.
This resource is the pdf only, when printing select “colour” and “fit to page”. The google page will be available as long as I have the account, though I’m working on make a proper webpage in the future to host these activities.
This GCSE Energy topic mindmap has blanks for pupils to complete to check their understanding at the end of the topic. There is a teacher version with the answers.
This is ideal for a revision activity in class or for homework, with the answers provided for pupils to check their work.
This can also be downloaded with all the formulas in the energy topic, there are worksheets for pupils to complete with a teacher copy with the answers.

This covers the whole KS3 Topic for current electricity with the following. This can be printed as a workbook, or pages used as worksheets. No other notes or worksheets are required if using this to cover the KS3 course. It includes practicals, theory and scientific skills. The electrcity mindmap can be printed separately on A3 for pupils to fill in for revision.
Current 5 activities with answers
Voltage 4 activities with answers
Resistance 4 activities with answers
Mindmap of the whole topic, blanks and answers
CURRENT
Conductors and Insulators. This includes a definition, space to practise drawing a circuit diagram to test items to confirm if they are conductors or insulators. A practical can be carried out and pupils complete 2 tables with items and materials, as either conductors or insulators.
Heating Effect of a Current. This includes a definition and the opportunity to make a fuse from nichrome wire to show the heating effect of a current as the wire glows read and melts. This can be a class practical or demo. This introduces the ammeter and pupils measure the current the wire melts at.
Current and Charge. The definition is introduced for current. Pupils are helped to draw circuit diagrams for series and parallel circuits. Pupils are introduced to the rule of current in series and parallel.
Current in a Series and Parallel Circuit. This allows pupils to calculate current in different circuits and gain more confidence with reading circuit diagrams.
Current in a Series and Parallel Circuit. The outcome is the same as above, but has extension circuits near the bottom, as the circuits are more complicated. This is a tricky KS3 worksheet so good for differentiation.
VOLTAGE aka POTENTIAL DIFFERENCE
Answers are included for all worksheets.
