The lesson starts with a ‘Memory’ Test, students will be shown a diagram of the ear with labels identifying the key parts that they need to know. Students can spend a few minutes looking at the diagram, the labels will then be taken away and they will need to try to annotate a copy of the diagram as best as possible. The labels will then be added to the diagram so students can mark and correct their work. Next, students will watch a video on how the ear, and the brain, is able to detect sound. Students will be given a set of questions to answer whilst they watch the video, once this task is complete students can self-assess their work against the mark scheme provided. The next part of the lesson focuses on the ways in which the ear can be damaged, students should firstly ‘Think > Pair > Share’ their ideas about how the ears/hearing can be damaged. The answers will then be revealed so students can assess their work and note down any they didn’t get. Students will then carry out a ‘Doctor’ role-play, where each group will have somebody with a particular problem. The students need to work out what the problem is, explain what the problem is and work out the best way to treat it. This can be acted out as a doctot-patient scene. Lastly, students will complete a progress check to assess their understanding of what they have learned so far this lesson. This task can be completed in their books and can be self-assessed or peer-assessed using the mark scheme provided. The plenary activity requires students to write a question about the component of the ear to test their peers understanding of what they have learned this lesson.

This lesson is designed for the Activate KS3 Science Course, specifically Year 7 P3 ’Light’. For more lessons designed for KS3 and KS4 please visit my shop at: https://www.tes.com/teaching-resources/shop/SWiftScience. Students are firstly introduced to the idea of ‘white light’ being split up into the colours of the rainbow. They are then shown a diagram of a ray of white light hitting a prism, which then leads to the refraction of this light - showing the colours of the rainbow from red to violet. Students can sketch a diagram of this into their books, indicating the most refracted and least refracted colours. Students are then shown a diagram which indicated how primary colours can be mixed together in various combinations to make secondary colours. The next part of the lesson, students will focus on how we observe different coloured objects. White light will bounce off an object, the colour the object appears depends on the colour of light that it reflects. Various diagrams are shown to students to demonstrate this point, they could sketch a copy of one of the diagrams or draw their own version in their books. They are then given a worksheet to assess their knowledge of what they have learned so far this lesson, extension questions are included for higher ability students. This work can be self-assessed using the mark scheme provided once it is complete. Students are now shown what happens to the appearance of objects when they are seen in coloured light rather than white light - coloured objects will only reflect the colour it is and will absorb any other colours - which means it appears to be black. Lastly, students are shown how filters are used to subtract light. Students will then complete a progress check to assess their knowledge of what they have learned this lesson, the mark scheme for this task is included on the PowerPoint. Students can then self-assess their answers using the mark scheme provided.
