FREE help sheet for teachers or students on energy stores, transfers, carriers, pathways and energy diagrams. This is specifically for the new GCSE 9-1 specification (which can be confusing).
ENERGY - THE LANGUAGE HAS CHANGED:
On tes there are many many energy lessons and resources teaching to the old spec. which are no longer applicable if taught today – which is a polite way of saying they are wrong. There are even some resources I’ve looked at that claim to be new spec. 9-1 – but they are wrong too, even BBC Bitesize is getting some aspects a bit confused. Please don’t risk teaching your classes incorrectly ! This resource is a FREE help sheet for science teachers which explains it all.
This help sheet is clear and simple and free !
For a high quality, ready to use and accurate science lesson on this topic please use the link below.

Happy teaching!

Complete lesson, for the first time you meet any new class, including your tutor group.
Use this lesson multiple times during your first week! Use it at the beginning of every year.
Great for new teachers and experienced teachers.
I have been using this very successfully for over a decade in a wide variety of schools (including two “tough” schools).
It provides an interesting and highly structured introductory lesson and has ensured good behaviour - even in groups that other teachers consider to be badly behaved.

Gravity, weight and mass. Gravitational field strength on other planets. Complete KS3 lesson. Gravity is lesson 4 in a series of 6 high quality lessons that fully and expertly delivers all the points within BOTH the NEW KS3 Department for Education ‘Space Physics’ National Curriculum and the AQA KS3 specification / syllabus sections ‘3.7.2 Universe’ and ‘3.1.2 Gravity’.
NO PREPARATION REQUIRED ! Simply print the worksheet (or you could project it) the PPT carefully leads you step by step through the lesson so no preparation required.
GRAVITY STUDENT OUTCOMES:

* Know what gravity is, and which direction it acts in.
* Understand the factors that affect gravitational field strength.
* Understand the difference between mass and weight.
* Be able to calculate weight and mass on the earth.
* Be able to calculate weight on other planets.
STARTER
Pupils will start the lessons by thinking and working in pairs in a race to unscramble key words and work out what today’s lesson is about. After discussion that leads to revealing the title and lesson outcomes, students then self-assess against their current understanding of this lesson.
MAIN and MAIN and MAIN…
This lesson is chunked into discrete sections to support learning and engender positive behaviour by keeping students interested and focused. All points of the specification are addressed.
There are various student activities such as: calculations with answers, gap fill, matching, paired work, literacy activities, focused questions with answers and differentiation, word unscramble, homework activity sheet (unique), mnemonic MATTHEW, self-assessment opportunities, peer assessment opportunities etc. This good variety of activities keeps pupils focused and happily learning.
PLENARY:
In the plenary activity pupils complete questions and then peer assess to uncover how much they have learnt during the lesson. They then self-assess themselves against the lesson outcomes. Students who need further support set themselves additional homework to enhance learning of today’s lesson.

This lesson is 4 in a series of 5
STARTER
Pupils become engaged in the lessons by thinking/working in pairs to solve a picture puzzle to find out what today’s lesson is about. After revealing the title and lesson outcomes students self assess against their current understanding of this topic. Next there is a scientific literacy Q and A activity to ensure all students learn the key words required to understand this lesson.
MAIN
Homework is set and then dispersion is demonstrated by the teacher, this is an opportunity for differentiation as high ability groups can do a short practical. There is a Q and A activity to bring out the key points.
MAIN
Dispersion is linked to the colours in a rainbow and how a rainbow is created. The standard ROY G BIV mnemonic for remembering the spectrum is introduced.
MAIN
Students study a slide which shows the sun, an apple and a girl and asks them, how is it that the girl can see that the apple is red in colour? This leads to a discussion and the revealing of how some colours are absorbed and some reflected off the apple and into the girl’s eyes so that she sees the apple as red. This progresses further into what effect different colours of light has on the colours that we see when looking at objects. Students then apply their new understanding to complete an activity and peer mark their answers.
MAIN
Students complete a practical experiment to investigate the effect of coloured filters on the colours that they can see. Next they look at the three RGB primary colours and the effects of adding them together.
PLENARY
A quiz - peer marked - which uncovers how much they have learnt during the lesson. Students self assess their understanding of this topic now they have reached the end of the lesson, and compare it to their previously self-assessed understanding at the start of the lesson. Students who need further support set themselves homework.
EXTENSION ACTIVITIES
A variety of activities are provided just in case any of your groups requires them either this year or in future years.
There is nothing for you to do but order the equipment for the class practical (simply hand your technician the printed off kit list.doc).
Thank you for looking, your feedback is much appreciated! :)

High quality lesson by Barclayfox for the first time you ever meet any class - complete lesson, ready to deliver, use it over and over again - for each new class, every year! The most important lesson you will ever give is the first one to each new class!
Complete lesson, ready to use, you only need to spend 2 or 3 minutes completing the ‘who am I’ slide (a partly completed slide for this is included inside the lesson powerpoint).
Key Stages: KS3 and KS4 and KS5.
ALL subjects / ALL teachers.
You can use it with your tutor group too !
Use this lesson to :
Reduce the stress and pressure - on you and the students.
Sort standards of behaviour.
Improve your experience of the first ever lesson with a class.
Improve your learners experience of their first ever lesson with you.
The first lesson with a new class is the most important lesson you will ever teach. This is a truly critical lesson. It has been used and improved a huge number of times over many years.
During the lesson you will:
* Sort out the seating plan.
* Learn students names.
* Introduce yourself to the students.
* Start to discover which students will (e.g. follow instructions, write, spell correctly) and which are reticent/less skilled.
* Set and agree class rules.
* Rewards - find out which rewards the learners care enough about to try and get.
* Set expectations of behaviour
* Ensure students recognise your authority as the teacher.
* Help learners understand why work ethic is so important.
* Learn about individual learners needs.
* Learn about their individual likes (important in building relationships)
* Learn about their individual dislikes (important in building relationships)
* Start to build those critical relationships.
* Start to coach / motivate the students about learning.
This is an excellent lesson - I use it repeatedly with every new class from KS3 to KS5. Whether you are a new teach or a very experienced one this is a small investment for a great lesson to improve your experience and outcomes when you meet every class for the very first time.
Use it over and over again during the first week of school - excellent value.
Happy teaching !
Yours,
Barclayfox
