Lesson explaining what is a Solar Eclipse and the difference between a total, partial and annular solar eclipse. Students should use their phones to simulate the different types of solar eclipses (see cover image) and then be able to explain the conditions for the three types of solar eclipses to occur. Also includes research worksheet.

Resistivity/Resistance investigation - Length vs. Resistance of pencil graphite

(0)
I made a PowerPoint a few years back on how to make a resistor with pencils. Here are (differentiated) instructions explaining to students how to carry out the investigation. Included is the original publisher file if you want to edit it. If you don't have publisher a PDF is also included! To do this experiment you will need a digital multimeter that can measure resistance.
