Required practical 9: Investigating the reflection and refraction of light by different types of substances. This includes an outstanding powerpoint lesson, lesson plan, worksheet to go along side power point, carefully chosen exam questions and markscheme and also a document focusing on exam technique by looking at what the examiners comments were for each individual question. This allows pupils to see what other students commonly get wrong and enables the teacher to make informed predictions of what topics will appear on the next gcse paper. (What ever is answered badly will reappear next year). This lesson is geared towards an exam class. Powerpoint includes ‘do now’ tasks focusing on key scientific terms relavent to the practical e.g. accuracy and precision, timers to keep you on track, many examples of how reflection and refraction are used in real life context e.g. walkie talkie building in london- architects need to always be considering angels, results tables, conclusion prompts, everything you could possibly need for an outstanding lesson. The exam focused questions and examiners comments are so valuable here that they could almost be used in a separate stand alone lesson.
