Calculation worksheet, with solutions, practicing calculations of frequencies and speeds for the doppler effect; Suitable for Y12 and 13 students who need practice with the equation. Differentiated by outcome, worksheet becomes harder. Extension questions near the end applying Doppler Effect to red and blueshift with light.
Powerpoint containing whole class tasks as well as individual work on:
mass and weight
Newton’s laws
Balanced and unbalanced forces
Buoyancy, thrust and types of forces (contact and non-contact)
Force diagrams
Speed and acceleration
Distance time graphs
Speed time graphs
Density
Suitable for KS4 or KS5 revision.
Differentiated worksheet where students practise using and rearranging Q=It, equation to calculate charge flowing in a circuit. All answers provided. Extension tasks are provided to stretch upper end of class, while earlier questions provide lots of repetition with calculations.
Grid worksheet for students to practise calculating the number of protons, neutrons and electrons in different elements from the periodic table. Grids get gradually harder allowing differentiated learning. Blank boxes at the bottom of the grids are for students to make up their own challenges for friends as extension tasks.
Suitable for KS3, KS4 or revision KS5
Planning sheet for students to carry out before, during and after an experiment to test solubility of sugar in water (can be adapted for your class). Contains work on scientific method, graph plotting and data collection.
Has worked extremely well with KS3 and lower KS4 groups
Worksheet for KS3 or KS4 to practice drawing energy transfer diagrams. Questions start simple and get gradually harder, and incorporate energy pathways and stores. Suitable for lower ability to support, or higher ability as lots of practice.
Fully differentiated worksheet, with answers, for pupils to practice calculations using V=IR, V=E/Q and Q=It. Questions include rearranging the equation and converting units. Each question is worth a different number of points so students can challenge themselves. Perfect for a lesson or a homework.
Worksheet for series circuit rules for KS4 GCSE: current, PD and resistance questions. Start simple and get harder as the sheet progresses, gets students to check their own work by using different methods for calculations. Suitable for middle to higher ability KS4 classes but could be scaffolded for use with low sets. Answers are included for students to mark their own work.
Worksheet for KS4 students (middle to high ability), where students can practice rearranging and using the equation V = E/Q, as well as reinforce Q=It which should have been taught previously. Questions become progressively harder and begin to link in other skills. Solutions are included on a separate sheet for pupils to mark afterwards.
Worksheet where students use the electromagnetic spectrum to identify properties and patterns of each type of wave, then practice wavespeed, wavelength and frequency calculations.
A sheet which helps students learn to construct ray diagrams: goes through the steps to draw rays for convex and concave lenses, then provides a guide as to describing the image.
Simple velocity time graphs where pupils practice reading graphs, calculating gradients and distance travelled by finding the area under a graph. Accompanying power point allows you to go through with pupils after activity.
Worksheet to accompany a computer room lesson / to complete as homework. Pupils create circuits using an online simulation, then measure P.D and current to identify circuit rules for themselves. Questions at the bottom test what they have learnt. A very good alternative to tricky (and often faulty) electricity practical work, or for a revision lesson.
Worksheet to be printed 2 to a side of A4; 4 simple questions for pupils to practice and demonstrate understanding of kinetic energy. Easy to assess and show progress.
