The content of the first two lessons of Waves covered in one. Go through the information about waves whilst students complete the first page of the booklet. They are then left to complete the rest of the booklet themselves, using the first page as a guide. Finish off with getting the students to complete certain waveforms when given specific sounds

Bitesize revision timetables for B1, C1 and P1. Takes 4/5 weeks to complete.

Part one of a bitesize revision timetable leading up to the GCSE exams.The rest will follow when it is written.

Posters for GCSE AQA Science past papers and mark schemes. Use a QR reader to quickly download the files.

Use the PPT to teach from and the students assess their knowledge with the worksheet.

Using ramps and cars the students plan their investigation using the planning sheet, and then carry out the investigation. This can all be done in one lesson. I then set them the task of writing up the investigation (using the level ladder) as homework, but could be done in a subsequent lesson

Differentiated worksheets using the speed = distance / time formula

Use rulers to demonstrate amplitude and pitch. My starter was me playing happy birthday with a 15cm ruler, and Jingle Bells (it was December when I planned this)

A worksheet for students to work on either as part of the lessons on reflection and refraction, or, as I used them as a topic recap.

Linking the expanding universe and red shift

The lesson looks at the two theories of the universe being created - Big bang and steady state.\n\nThey use the key cards and split between inferences and observations then use them to decide which is a better model and why

Worksheet looking at waves travelling through different media.\n\nStarter used a bell jar.\n\nThis is a practical based lesson with three different activities

Practical activity.\n\nIn pairs students pick a type of ear to make. They then stand near the sound source that is included and walk backward until they can no longer hear the sound. The sound needs to be very low, along with the class being quiet.\n\nTwo elephant ears should be the best.

Practical lesson looking at wing design on paper aeroplanes

Intro to Light topic, covers keywords and gets the students to think about light travelling in straight lines

Include demo's such as: 1. One nail bursting a balloon, then bed of nails not bursting the balloon 2. Crushing can (youtube) 3. Inflateable marshmallowman (youtube)

Modelling circuits that are parallel or series, goes after a modelling lesson on circuits (which is also on TES)

This is a 100 minute lesson but is split into two 50 minute lessons. The first is about gravity, the second is on moments.

The students are shown some models for the flow of electricity in a circuit. They then have to create their own. Worksheet has levels 4-7.
