Lesson structure
With the question version of the quiz on the interactive whiteboard, pupils write their answers on their recording sheet. This quiz has a built-in timer for each question but the teacher has control of movement between slides to move from question to question.
The answer version of the quiz is then put on the IWB and pupils mark their answers. This version also shows the questions so it is easy for the teacher to go through any explanations necessary.
The facts on the fact sheet are mapped to the question numbers in the quiz. Pupils now match and colour on the fact sheet, the numbers of the questions they had wrong on the pupil recording sheet. They then have, to take away with them, a clear and permanent record of facts to be learned.
Pupils then tackle the worksheet which is differentiated over two versions.
Finally pupils use the answer/mark scheme PowerPoint to either self-assess or peer assess their answers to the worksheet.

Rules of the Game
• Each player selects seven dominoes from the top of the face-down pile and holds them in their hand like playing cards.
• The player whose surname begins with a letter closest to the letter A starts and play proceed in a clockwise direction.
• Dominoes can be matched exactly, or a name can be matched with a symbol or descriptions, sketches and circuit diagrams can be matched.

Current Electricity KS3 - Save the Technician Escape Room
Finish and reinforce the KS3 current electricity module or revisit it prior to exams with this innovative, enjoyable and challenging escape room lesson. Prior knowledge required:
• current, voltage and resistance – defining and understanding, units, measuring;
• circuits and symbols;
• series and parallel circuits – current, voltage, switches, lamps;
• current and voltage varying with number of batteries;
• Ohms Law.
Pupils have to work their way through the clues to find the code to a box with a combination lock containing an antidote to a substance, accidentally ingested by the laboratory. The substance is the departments a prototype, orally administered sunscreen being developed by the department which has unfortunately been found to turn the skin of mice purple and which has not yet been tested on humans and is also therefore potentially toxic.
The pack contains:
• PowerPoint – scene setting and instructions (sound effects and built-in timer);
• crossword;
• word search;
• dominoes activity;
• worksheet Differentiated over 2 versions);
• code breaker sheet;
• answer keys;
• lesson plan.
If time is limited just the crossword, word search and domino can be used. With a minimum of 50 minutes available one of the differentiated worksheets can also be used. The worksheet is the most challenging clue to solve and this can be omitted completely for less able classes.
Both 3 and 4 number combination locks can be purchased very cheaply online if using an actual box containing an unopened bottle of a soft drink, with the label removed, for a member of the winning team to take to the technician. In the absence of a locked box, until the code is found, as each group completes a team member can be dispatched to the prep room for the technician to ”try the code”. Alternatively all the combination locks in the science department had been set to the same combination for an escape room lesson including the one used on the box with the antidote in the prep room. The combination has been lost but if the class can open the one in front of them it will open the one on the antidote!
The module is available as money-saving bundles or individual topics.

Air Resistance and Friction Explained KS3
A comprehensive and enjoyable explanation of the causes and effects of air resistance and friction with animated PowerPoints which:
demonstrate air resistance as resulting from collisions between the front of an object and air particles;
demonstrate how friction is caused by collisions between “bumps” in sliding surfaces and slows them down and produces heat;
demonstrate why streamlined bodies reduce air resistance to travel faster;
provide a visual explanation of the relationship between acceleration due to gravity, sir resistance, steady speed and why parachutes work.
The three practicals investigate:
the relationship between the force needed to move a shoe over different types of surface.
the relationship between surface area of a parachute and air resistance
do streamlined objects travel faster in water?
What’s Covered
Friction is a force which opposes motion and is measured in newtons (N).
Friction increases with the roughness of the surface.
Friction is caused by collisions between “bumps”, sometimes microscopic, as surfaces slide over each other.
Collisions slow things down and produce heat.
How lubricants reduce friction
Air resistance results from collisions between the front of an object and air particles.
Steady speed.
Air resistance wastes energy and slows moving objects

Force, Weight & Mass KS3
A comprehensive and enjoyable introduction to forces and an explanation of the relationship between mass and weight.
What’s Covered
Force is a pull or a push with examples.
Arrows indicate the direction of force.
Contact and non-contact forces explained and examples
Forces can change an objects speed, direction or shape
The Newton and newtonmeter.
Real-life examples of forces.
All objects attract each other and that the attraction force depends on the size of the object.
The attraction force of planets is called gravity which acts towards the centre.
Gravity hold Earth’s atmosphere in place.
Mass is the amount of material in a body, is measured in kilograms (Kg) and is independent of position.
Weight is the effect of gravity pulling on a mass.
Units for gravitational field strength are N/Kg.
Applying W = m x g to calculate weight of a body on Earth, the Moon and Jupiter.
Practical
The first simple practical gives pupils experience in reading scales as they find the weight of their pencil case and other items provided by the teacher. (selection of different objects and different size newtonmeters needed)
The second practical introduces an element of fun and competition by using a bathroom scales calibrated in Newtons (an ordinary bathroom scales can be used but multiply the reading in kilograms by 10) to find the person with the strongest grip in the class (photograph of how to do this shown on the PowerPoint)

Prior Knowledge Required
Atoms combine to form molecules.
If combining atoms are from the same element, a molecule of an element is formed but if they are from different elements, a molecule of a compound is formed.
An element contains only one type of atom.
A compound contains two or more different types of atom combined together chemically.
Each element has its own symbol.
Some symbols are the capitalized first letter of the name of the element .
Some symbols have two letters from the name with only the first capitalized.
Some symbols are taken from the Latin name of the element.
Know that a chemical formula tells you how many atoms of each element are in a compound.
Know that if there is no letter after a symbol in a formula, there is only one atom of that element in the compound.
Know that if a formula contains brackets, every element inside the bracket is multiplied by that number.
Know that compounds ending in ide contain only two elements.
Know that compounds containing CO3 are carbonates, SO4 are sulphates and NO3 are nitrates.
Know that mono is one, di is two and tri is three.
Be able to name and work out the number of atoms of each element in a compound without brackets in its formula.
