Exoplanets are very frequently in the news, they are fascinating. This lesson contains a short presentation followed by the (addictive) Planet Crash simulation game or an iPad app task. A really fun lesson - particularly useful for the end of term.
22 circular motion multiple choice questions for Physics A-level with student-friendly solutions.
Also available 220 multiple choice question bundle for A-level physics second year topics
Students can’t usually recognise constellations and planets above their heads. This is a shame as the night skies are beautiful. This marvelous interactive eBook will take them from absolute beginners to naked eye experts in about 40 minutes. Suitable from year seven to A level astrophysics students.
Either in the classroom or remote at home, this is a fantastic lesson (and relaxing for the teacher) Students use the pdf eBook file on iPads/ tablets/ laptops. The emphasis is on student independence. The file contains 407 hyperlinked pages with 73 questions. Differentiated paths are automatically followed based on students answers.
Track student progress by them reporting which end of chapter reward pictures they receive. Instructions to share with students and a teacher key to the rewards are included.

This is a great revision lesson (and relaxing for the teacher). Each student in your class will answer around 100 differentiated questions with help and feedback covering the whole topic. The emphasis is on student independence. The differentiation should work well from GCSE foundation tier revision to A level recap.
Students use this pdf file on iPads/ tablets/ phone/ laptops. Email the file to your class and use Adobe Acrobat Reader on “single page view” to optimise the view.
I’d recommend asking students to submit notes they make on key points and record any rewards they receive for completing sections. You could track student progress from the reward pictures they get.

The pdf file allows students to revise the AQA GCSE Physics Radioactivity topic. Either in the classroom or at home this is a great lesson. A relaxing half hour for the teacher! Students use this pdf file on iPads/ tablets/ laptops. The emphasis is on student independence. Great for classroom or remote learning. The file contains 136 hyperlinked slides with 61 questions.
The Adobe Acrobat Reader is optimal on “single page view”, Outlook and OneNote are inferior. Performance will vary through different apps and platforms.
Remote students could let you know when they get a sticker - you can use this to track their independent work.
Maria Skłodowska Curie - atomic symbols
Ernest Rutherford - alpha, beta & gamma
Becquerel - background radioactivity
Otto Hahn - half lives
Chadwick - decay equations
JJ Thomson - quiz
Pierre Curie - tricky quiz
If they send other bogus stickers to you (of non-nuclear physicists) then they are simply scrolling through slides and not answering questions.

The pdf file allows students to independently learn and practise the A-level series and parallel resistance equations. Students use this pdf file on iPads/ phones. The emphasis is on student independence in the classroom. You should be able to put your feet up while students teach themselves this topic for 10-15mins. The file contains 61 hyperlinked slides with lots of questions to test their learning as they go along. Think of it as a very interactive text book.
