A complete and ready to deliver high quality GCSE lesson.
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.
There is nothing to do but give it a quick look through and familiarise yourself with it.
Lesson objectives:
* Know what radon gas is, where it comes from and why it is dangerous.
* Understand power stations produce dangerous radioactive waste and explain disposal methods.
* Form your own opinions about nuclear power and its safety after studying the Chernobyl and Fukushima incidents.
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 - simple task where students self-assess themselves against the objectives.
* Sequencing activity.
* Gap fill activity - all answers are provided.
* Quiz with answers.
* Questions – all answers are provided.
* Theory slides (carefully sculpted, interspaced with learning activities, not ‘death by powerpoint’).
* Video clip link (carefully selected – this alone can save you 20+ minutes of searching).
* Play ball.
* Paired work activities – answers are provided.
* Scientific literacy activity.
* Plenary formative/summative assessment quiz / activity.
* Student self-assessment versus objectives activity – so learners can judge for themselves how much they have learnt.

Some useful information but none of the video links work which rather limits its usefulness. Average at best, not worth £3.99 when compared to other resources
