Describe the differences between longitudinal and transverse waves. Give examples of transverse and longitudinal waves. Interactive Powerpoint with a range of activities including key notes, application to questions, exam style question and model answer, plenary task.

This lesson is aimed at Y8/9 Biology transition to GCSE. Objectives: State the main parts of the nervous system. Describe how the nervous system works. Describe how hormones affect the body. This lesson includes: Do now activity Worked example - easy for students to follow. A simple practical (with template on 1st slide of PowerPoint). Exit ticket

This lesson is designed for GCSE (Edexcel spec). End Point: How do we calculate the speed of a wave? Success Criteria: Recall/use the equation relating wave speed, frequency and wavelength. Recall/use the equation relating wave speed, distance and time. Describe how to measure the velocity of sound in air. Describe how to measure the velocity of waves on the surface of water. This simple lesson gives students lots of practice calculating wave speeds using two different methods. I would follow this lesson with the required practical ‘Investigating waves’.

This pack contains two lessons: Lesson 1: Intro to Sound Objectives: State how sound travels. Describe some uses of sound. Explain why they are used. Lesson 2: Recognising sound waves Objectives: State what an oscilloscope is Identify a range of sound waves Includes the following resources: PowerPoint Presentation Key words word search Research sheet Ghost buster worksheet
