Complete No-Prep lesson with exam questions, tasks and answers on Series and Parallel Circuits for AQA GCSE (9-1) Science / Physics, covering all of AQA GCSE Physics 4.2.2 / Combined Science 6.2.2.

This is the fourth lesson in the electricity topic. The preceding three are available in a discounted bundle and can also be found:

As a Secondary Science teacher, Deputy Headteacher, writer and examiner for many years I make high quality no-prep lessons so busy teachers can teach outstanding lessons without spending hours planning. This high quality lesson includes explanations, different types of in-lesson assessment (all with answers) and unique exam questions.

My lessons are ideal for non-Physicists - as a Biologist who retrained as a Physics teacher I know how to take learners on a journey that builds up their understanding step by step, while still going into a lot of depth. The preview video shows a representative sample of slides from the resource so that you get a good idea of what it includes before you buy.

What’s Included:
• Starter / Do Now Activity
• Explanation slides in “chunked” sections with animated diagrams.
• Worked examples of calculations / questions.
• Multiple questions in different question styles and difficulties - no need for worksheets. Each “chunked” explanation section typically includes a set of “learning check / quick questions” followed by a set of in-depth questions on the learning from that “chunk” of the lesson. All questions have answers.
Exam-style questions on the whole lesson at the end of the lesson- these are unique, based on real exam questions but not just copied from exam boards.
Answers for all questions
• All easily editable to adapt to your teaching or to use in existing lessons.
• Slightly humorous, at points, if you like that sort of thing.

Learning objectives:

  • Identify and draw series and parallel circuits.
  • Describe how current and potential difference act in a series circuit.
  • Describe how current and potential difference act in a parallel circuit.
  • Calculate resistance in a series circuit, use the concept of equivalent resistance and explain why RTOTAL = R1 + R2
  • Explain why adding more resistors decreases total resistance in a parallel circuit.

The lesson was written for AQA GCSE Science / Physics but is very likely to be applicable to other exam specifications.
