Simply, set and relax as these video companions will help make sure your students are paying attention throughout these videos, having a variety of questions throughout the length of the video.
I have laboured long and hard to make these video companions as easy as possible to engage with and to be able to use for teachers of any kind, whether in school, higher education or home schooling, these can be great to keep students engaged and know they watched the material fully.
The video companions include:
Astronomy related:
Do you expand with the universe?
Does planet 9 exist?
Half the universe was missing… until now
How one supernova measured the universe
These are the asteroids to worry about
Why gravity is NOT a force
Why the speed of light can’t be measured
How To Clean Up Space Junk
Why Apollo Astronauts Trained in Nuclear Bomb Craters
**Non-Astronomy related:
**
Can you swim in shade balls?
How trees bend the laws of physics
How Kodak exposed the Atomic bomb
These pools support half the people on Earth
Why Are 96,000,000 Black Balls on This Reservoir?
States of matter
How Special Relativity Makes Magnets Work
The Most Radioactive Places on Earth
The bizarre behaviour of rotating bodies explained
Flamethrower vs Aerogel
Ice spikes explained
Make plasma with grapes in the microwave
Making liquid Nitrogen from scratch
Misconceptions about heat
I Waterproofed Myself With Aerogel!
World’s Lightest Solid!
Usage:
The layout of these video companions are that there are both teacher and student versions of all of these documents. The teacher versions contain the solutions and the administrative information. The student versions contain only the questions and spaces for students to fill in the work. They are easy to use and all in PDF form, including one large ‘master file’ so you can see all the content in one broad sweep and see what video companion will work for you and your students easily.

Have you ever wondered what is the universe? How does it work? What are you made of?
In part 1 of his 3 part series, Oliver explains complex topics in simple terms using informative graphics. Written in the style of a good friend helping you understand the wonder of the universe. This book tackles the basic concepts that define the universe, the process that govern stars and an introduction to the planets of our Solar System. From atoms, to nuclear bombs, from light to the gas giants, this book has all the universal basics and planetary properties covered.
In part 2 of his 3 part series, he tackles stars, their births, lives and deaths. From the Sun, to neutron stars, from black holes to pulsars and magnetars, this book has all the weird and wonderful stars covered.
In part 3 of his 3 part series, Oliver tackles galactic dynamics, special and general relativity, universal truths and how it all began and will end. From galactic explanations to the scale and expansion of the universe, this book has wonderful mind expanding topics covered.
This book is a thorough and valuable guide for anyone interested in understanding the universe.

The Power of magnets unit plan - This is ideal for students relating science and magnetic concepts. This unit engages students with the concept of magnets, static electricity, lightning, the sustainability of magnets, how are magnets made, how do they work and a great deal more in a broad conceptual understanding.
The What matters is… unit plan is ideal for students relating science and atomic chemistry. This unit engages students with the concept of an atom, what is the periodic table, how else could the periodic table be represented? solutions, solutes and solvents and a great deal more in a broad conceptual understanding.
The Characteristics of life and body systems unit plan is ideal for students relating science and biological concepts. This unit engages students with the characteristics of life, body systems, organs, diseases, microbiology and a great deal more in a broad conceptual understanding.
The Planet Unknown unit plan is ideal for students relating science and astrophysical concepts. This unit engages students with planets and their structure, balance, gravity, space travel, the idea of scale and a great deal more in a broad conceptual understanding.
These four unit plans each contain many, many links and ideas that keep learning engaging and fun during the weeks that they are running. They are brain-child of months of work to make fully fleshed out science units that integrate other areas of study, but are also truly in keeping to focus on the science and help the students learn in an enjoyable way.
All four of these units are focussed on MYP 2, but could apply to either MYP 1 or 3 easily and be used for that purpose.

Stars come in many kinds, in one and twos, our own star (the Sun), dead stars and dying stars. The universe gives incredible views of many different kinds of stars. Learning about them is rather awesome indeed. So diving into the content with this 6 template / 6 article set seems like a great idea! This bundle has you covered and helps students develop research skills with a STEM connection and critical thinking prompts through thought provoking questions.
This research project template provides the perfect grab and go, print and provide resource that can supplement lessons. It is an project template with questions to check comprehension and inspire scientific thinking. It gives a rich and supportive framework that can be tweaked as needed for students to support differentiation.
Each research project template includes:
Space for a one paragraph summary (that links to the 2 page science article also available on this topic - but does not have to).
Students should produce a mathematical connection, an engineering / technology connection, 2 interesting facts / stats.
5 glossary terms they should fill in with their own words (which also links to the science article also available)
3 thought provoking questions (ie: critical thinking questions) they must answer.
Finally, each template has 3 alternative thought provoking questions for younger students and 3 other alternative harder questions to extend high flying or older students. Giving you a total of 9 possible thought provoking questions that could be used with students to enhance their research and critical thinking.
Further, I have added a 1 page - 20 point rubric to be used for either self-assessment or teacher assessment as you deem fit. I hope it helps support the learning even further!
This template is some of my best work and I am proud to share it with you.
WHY / WHEN TO USE:

This set of science articles provides the perfect grab and go, print and provide resource that can supplement lessons. It is a set of articles 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:
10 sets of 3 page Word doc teacher version with answers
10 sets of 2 page Word doc student version with room to fill in answers (text boxes)
10 sets of 3 page PDF teacher version with answers
10 sets of 2 page PDF student version without answers (but space left to do so)
More will be coming to cover other subjects and other topics, so please do keep an eye out for more science articles from The Teaching Astrophysicist!
