A great revision technique to go up a grade in Physics A Level is to memorise all the definitions. These are 1,2 or 3 mark wave definitions which will give your students the edge and it is especially useful for students who depend on their maths skills to solve problems, but it is difficult to derive an A Level standard definition during an exam! The definitions are for: frequency period wavelength amplitude longitudinal wave transverse wave coherent superposition phase phase difference path difference Huygen’s construction diffraction standing wave node antinode refraction critical angle total internal reflection focal point virtual image real image plane polarisation ultrasound infrasound wavefront intereference This pdf is easy to make into a set of colourful flash cards, and having them around, as opposed to online, ensures students can use them for a quick starter, plenary or for a break during a long lesson. The definitions are written to an A Level standard, double checked against mark schemes on past paper exams for the wave topic.

This worksheet is for introducing the speed distance time scalar calculations at GCSE. The follow on worksheet uses the same formula for the vectors velocity and desplacement. It contains a pupil worksheet with blanks and a teachers sheet with answers. This is a standard format for physics calculations, to be used in class to introduce and practise each formula. These have been honed on lower set pupils and allows differentiation in the following way: Page 1 Notes and examples completed with the teacher Page 2 Table, allows pupils to practise using the formula and manipulating it Page 2 Table, higher order skills for stronger pupils include s.f. and prefixes Page 2 Questions, these get harder as you work down the questions. The expectation is that this activity can stop when some pupils have finished the final questions, as this will still have allowed all pupils to practise problem solving. The answers can be given so pupils can complete questions for revision at the end of the top if they didn’t complete all the questions in class. There is a pdf version and a .docx version that is editable.

This worksheet introduces random errors, how to reduce them, and two timing practicals to practice reducing random errors. Works well in Physics Forces and Motion topic when measuring time to calculate speed. The apparatus required for the two practicals are: Measure time for an object to fall 1 m: class set of 1m rulers, objects to drop, timers, calculators Measure the time for a pendulum or swing to oscillate (swing back and forth once): a pendulum or swing, timers, calculators. Great short lesson activity and the interactive element keeps it interesting and relevant.
