Conservation of momentum, collisions, elastic and inelastic collisions. Complete lesson.

A complete, and ready to deliver, high quality KS4 / GCSE lesson from Barclayfox.

This is a complete lesson from start to end, you do not need to spend many hours carefully planning, creating, resourcing and improving this lesson after each use. I have already spent those hours preparing this lesson for my students and improving it over many years. This is an excellent lesson.

There is nothing for you to do but give it a quick look through and familiarise yourself with it.

LOs:
* I understand what conservation of momentum means.
* I can describe the difference between an elastic collision and an inelastic collision.
* I can carry out calculations for collisions between objects.
* I can carry out calculations for explosions.

This carefully crafted lesson is over 40 slides long, and is full of learning activities as below:
* Notes to help the teacher.
* Help sheet (can be given to all, or only to those that the plenary shows found the lesson difficult, or given later to students who missed the lesson).
* Starter - short test.
* Starter - simple task where students self-assess against the objectives.
* Matching task - answers are provided.
* Activity sheet - built into the powerpoint simply print this slide for each student. Answers are provided too.
* Quiz with answers.
* Questions – all answers are provided.
* Peer marking AND self marking.
* Up and about activity
* Theory slides (carefully sculpted, interspaced with learning activities, not ‘death by powerpoint’).
* Play ball.
* Video clip link (carefully selected – this alone can save you 20+ minutes of searching).
* Paired work activities T/P/S – answers are provided.
* Scientific literacy activity.
* 2 x Demos
* Plenary formative/summative assessment quiz / activity.
* Student self-assessment versus objectives activity – so learners can judge for themselves how much they have learnt.

This lesson is part of a series, whilst they all work very well as standalone individual lessons you may wish to buy others from the series:
0. Bundle – contains all lessons (if available, not all my series are bundled)
1. Momentum.
2. Conservation of momentum, collisions, elastic and inelastic.
3. Momentum, impulse, crumple zones and safety.

Thank you, and happy teaching!
