Presentation outlining what a force is, contact and non-contact forces. They then do a measuring forces activity (the spreadsheet contains a copy of the results table) before leading into a friction of different surfaces investigation. The Powerpoint contains humour and was written by a (very!) experienced Physics teacher. Could also be used in year 7.

AS Physics 6 Deformation of solids (Cambridge). Everything you need to teach this topic; Presentations, activities and worksheets.

Everything they need to know for A level or IB presented in a humorous fashion by a very experienced teacher. Worksheets and practical activities too. Propagating uncertainties too.

A lesson for IGCSE (14-6 year old) Coordinated Science although this will also work at KS3 (11-14 year olds). The slide that says 'Follow Mr Porter' I normally take them outside and show them how to play 'Wall Ball' and hence demonstrate the law of reflection. Please message me if you don't know 'wall ball'. The sheets are exercises in using the law, either drawing rays of light to show light being bounced off mirrors to find treasure on a treasure map or trying to 'zap' a dog (I have a running joke about my hate of dogs in my lessons). Please feel free to substitute something other than a dog!

Everything they need to know for GCSE Chemistry - formulae, reactions, pH scale, disassociation etc.

Ready made Science display for any lab. 20 Science jokes and their explanations. Print out and stick randomly on board (all jokes have humorous cartoons etc too). Students have to match the joke with the correct explanation. Will cover a large board! (just miss a few jokes out to cover smaller board). Very popular! Probably best for seondary, but why not push those primary kids?

Written for IB/A level. Fully explained PowerPoint with examples, worksheet and practical activity. Step-by-step explanation in a humorous style from a very experienced Physics teacher.

Two comprehensive lessons with practical sheets and presentations. Hooke's law for GCSE/IGCSE with calculation of spring constant and as an extension finding the spring constant for two springs in series and parallel.

All they need to know for IGCSE/GCSE Physics. The transformers lesson (also available from the same author) follows on nicely from this. This assumes you have a generator/dynamo to demonstrate and you have wire/magnets/multimeters for them to induce their own current.

Written for IB, this can also be used for A level. Includes derivation of formulae, qualitative descriptions and Doppler effect with light. Worked examples and accompanying worksheet. Written with humour too by a very experienced (26 years!) Physics teacher.

Step by step, easy to understand and humorous presentation explaining Newton's laws for year 9 and GCSE lower groups. Non-Physics specialist and don't quite understand them yourself? - You will now!

Presentation covering all the formulae they need to remember with units and humorous pictures. Test the students with each formula before revealing the answer.

A simple factual Powerpoint on joints and intro to muscles.

Fully explained for horizontal and non-horizontal initial motion. Practical investigation and worksheets. Written for IB or A level by experienced Physics teacher. Humour too! (I don't like dogs!).

IB Internal assessment presentation and sheets for students explaining what they are assessed on. I do one practice assessment and the Powerpoint refers to that. Slides go over the different criteria as does the student sheet. Student sheet also contains many suggested experiments (this is written for Physics, but most of it applies to Biology and Chemistry too).

Presentation, examples, worksheet and practical activities for the Equations of Motion (SUVAT). Written for IB but fine for A level and GCSE. Written with humour by a very experienced Physics teacher.

Everything you need to teach this topic; Presentations, worksheets, practical activities and a video made by the author explaining the photoelectric effect. Adapatable for A level too.

EVERYTHING you need to teach this topic. Presentations, worksheets, practicals and revision material. Great value for money for the amount of work you will save. Written by a very experienced IB Physics teacher. Presentations feature humour too!

Please give me feedback if you have time. These are Power Points and sheets I use in lessons and will need some adaption to your classes. Most lessons start with a "Do now" that students do as they enter.

A good homework is ask them to do a simple practical at home for their parents. Obviously you have to be careful here – I use the Amazing Mug trick to demonstrate refraction for year 8s. Put a coin in the bottom far side of a mug and move your head so the coin is just out of view. Pouring water in causes the coin to appear as if by magic. Students have to demonstrate this to parents/siblings who sign a slip in their books to prove that it was done! This type of homework can also use internet simulations as the second worksheet shows.
