Quantum Physics | Science Article #108 | Reading / Literacy | Physics Resource

Quantum Mechanics is a tricky topic, but it has so much impact on the technology we use, the science we can and have learned and it makes it worth learning about. Quantum tunnelling, Schrodinger’s cat and the Heisenberg uncertainty principle are all discussed in this excellent article.

This science article provides the perfect grab and go, print and provide resource that can supplement lessons. It is an article with questions to check comprehension and inspire scientific thinking. I am very proud of this series of science articles and they are rich with information and wonder at the majesty of science. Each science article includes a fun fact(s) to add to the knowledge gained from this article. Formatted in an easy to read and digest manner, each paragraph is numbered to help with referencing and each question answer has a paragraph reference number to point to the specific information (where applicable).

WHY / WHEN TO USE:

• Useful for substitute (sub) teaching
• To extend students
• To increase scientific literacy in your class
• A weekly reading task
• Great as a lesson filler when class goes too fast
• To inspire students on a particular topic
• Give a selection of these articles for students to choose from

WHAT’S INCLUDED:

• 3 page Word doc teacher version with answers
