I am currently a Teacher of Science and I have a background in Telecomms and Software Engineering. I can occasionally be found on BBC Radio Shropshire as their Science Teacher. I enjoy finding innovative ways to help students revise and have developed the Grade Gain app for Science revision.

Physics Taboo 3

(0)
Taboo game cards covering the main Physics topics: Lenses, Motor Effect, Pressure, Centripetal force, Moments Students play in teams of two. One person picks up a card and has to describe the phrase in the top box without using any of the words on the card. Their team mate has to guess it to win. The opposing two members of the four can jump in and steal the card by guessing correctly.

GCSE Physics - static electricity lesson plan and presentation

(1)
A lesson plan and presentation introducing static electricity and the triboelectric effect. There are links to a couple of you tube videos that emphasise the points being made. This lesson also details a practical that students can do to experience the triboelectric effect for themselves.

GCSE Combined Science - Physics - Paper 1 Mind Map

(0)
This has the main topic headings for the Combined Science Paper 1 grouped according to topic. Each required practical is highlighted. This can be used as a revision aid for students to work through and identify areas to work on or they can add to and improve the mind map with detail although it may want to be blown up onto A3 for this.

GCSE Physics - Moments and cantilevers lesson plan and presentation

(1)
A GCSE Physics lesson plan and presentation that introduces moments and cantilevers to students. They need to complete the cantilever practical as specified in the AQA resources - measuring deflection when masses are added to a clamped metre rule. This introduces key terms and ideas. Please review my work ;-) Thanks for buying.
Electromagnetic radiation splat

Electromagnetic radiation splat

(0)
An animated PowerPoint file that enables you to play splat. Have a list of questions where the answers are parts of the electromagnetic spectrum and have two students at the board. The first person to "splat" the right answer wins. Winner stays on is always a good game but you can rotate in teams or anyway you like. Excellent for revision of the electromagnetic spectrum.
GCSE Physics - Required Practical 4c Diode

GCSE Physics - Required Practical 4c Diode

(0)
I have reworked the required practical from AQA as using cells did not provide sufficient variability or control for collecting data on a diode. This practical sheet provides detailed instructions of how to set up the circuit and gather the data including how to do this using LEDs instead of a diode.

These flash cards are great when printed out double sided and then laminated. Can be used in multiple ways - as flash cards to test the whole class, as small cards for pupils to play pelmanism (memory) with. Printed single sided they can be used as a card sort activity. Covers all the common GCSE units for Physics.

A handy list of quantities, units and their symbols

(0)
Designed for AQA Trilogy course but suitable to all double award GCSE courses this resource is a handy guide for students to refer to if they need to look up a symbol and its corresponding unit. It is a good tool to help them memorise the units as they can do look, cover, write, check with it. There are a multitude of ways you can use this.
