Science Lessons 4 You

Average Rating5.00
(based on 4 reviews)

Having taught in the UK and abroad, I've experienced teaching many different syllabi including SABIS, AQA, WJEC and Cambridge. I develop resources to help teachers model key concepts, provide practice for students and include answers to help students self-assess their work. Planning for a 27 lesson week can be stressful to say the least, so I hope you find my resources useful. Thank you for choosing my lesson/s, I hope they enrich your teaching practice and make your life easier.

Light

(0)
PowerPoint that covers the key words: transparent, translucent, opaque, absorbed, transmitted, luminous, non-luminous, light meter and reflected. This is made for a KS3 level class. The PowerPoint includes the answers to the activities.
Making Electricity with Fossil Fuels
Malachite44Malachite44

Making Electricity with Fossil Fuels

(0)
PowerPoint that covers generating electricity by combusting fossil fuels. Includes how fossil fuels are formed, what we use them for, how electricity is generated and the advantages and disadvantages. This is made for a KS3 level class. The starter activity revisits efficiency and power from previous lessons to enhance memory recall.
Power and the Cost of Electricity
Malachite44Malachite44

Power and the Cost of Electricity

(0)
PowerPoint that covers power and the cost of electricity for a KS3 level class. The starter revisits efficiency and energy stores from previous lessons to enhance memory recall. The power equation (power = energy transferred / time) is covered with an example of how to show working out. Slides include rearranging the equation and unit conversions. The cost equation (cost = power x time x cost per kWh) is also covered. Answers are included.
Gravity, Mass and Weight
Malachite44Malachite44

Gravity, Mass and Weight

(0)
PowerPoint that covers gravity, mass and weight at a KS3 level. Includes the equation weight = mass x gravitational field strength.
Colours of Light, Colour of Objects, Filters and Dispersion
Malachite44Malachite44

Colours of Light, Colour of Objects, Filters and Dispersion

(0)
PowerPoint that covers the following learning objectives: Describe and explain what happens to light when it passes through a prism. State how primary colours add to make secondary colours. State the effect of coloured filters on light and explain how filters and coloured materials subtract light. This is made for a KS3 science class. Includes questions, answers, diagrams, examples and a link to a virtual simulation of dispersion.
Forces, Contact Forces, Non-Contact Forces, Measuring Forces and Interaction Pairs
Malachite44Malachite44

Forces, Contact Forces, Non-Contact Forces, Measuring Forces and Interaction Pairs

(0)
PowerPoint that covers the following learning objectives: Describe what forces do and how they are measured. Identify ‘contact forces’ and ‘non-contact forces’. Simply describe what ‘interaction pair’ means and identify interaction pairs in a simple situation. Use a newton meter to measure the size of a force. Includes diagrams, explanations, practical safety, practical method, practical results table, questions and answers.

Refraction of Light

(0)
PowerPoint that covers the following learning objectives: Describe and explain what happens when light is refracted. Draw a refraction diagram. Includes diagrams, explanations, questions and answers. If you could spare 5 minutes, please review this resource, to help my online presence grow! :)
Using a Mass Balance
Malachite44Malachite44

Using a Mass Balance

(0)
PowerPoint that covers the following learning objectives: Define the mass of an object. Measure mass of an object using a mass balance. Includes questions, pictures, instructions and a practical in which the students have to use mass balances to measure the mass of up to 20 objects. There are questions that ask students to add masses of objects together, substract masses and work out the difference. The results table, questions and space for answers are on the worksheet. This is for a primary/early secondary class. If you could spare 5 minutes, please review this resource, to help my online presence grow! :)
Investigating How Different Volumes of Water Cool Down
Malachite44Malachite44

Investigating How Different Volumes of Water Cool Down

(0)
PowerPoint that covers the following learning objectives: Measure the temperature of a substance. Plot a graph of temperature vs. time. In this investigation, students will compare how a large beaker of hot water and a small beaker of hot water cool down differently. They will form a research question, hypothesis, fill in table of results, plot line graphs and form a conclusion. PowerPoint includes research question, hypothesis, method, graphs and conclusion.
