Disciplinary Literacy resource/task describing Newton’s Laws of motion. Answers provided. Supplied as editable powerpoint file (.ppt) and PDF, complete with answer slides.
This is a reading comprehension task (around an A4 page) featuring a short passage describing Newton’s Laws and giving examples of when they apply, followed by a definition task for the tier 3 vocabulary introduced, and 10 ramped recall and application questions on page 2.
This resource is designed to match the AQA Combined Science and single science Physics specification for the Forces topic (P5). It could be used to either introduce Newton’s Laws of motion early in the topic, or later for consolidation, revision and retrieval. The resource easily be adapted to other exam boards (such as Edexcel) and International curriculum of other countries.
I would recommend guiding the students to read through once independently, then read through aloud to promote oracy, then allowing students to answer questions.
Please leave feedback (especially pointing out spelling mistakes!) to help me improve my resources!

Start to embed reading, comprehension and scientific literacy skills into your curriculum with these 4 disciplinary literacy activities.
Each takes the form of an engaging article-style passage, putting physics into the context of a historical story or real world applications. These are then followed with comprehension questions that check students understanding of the text.
Tier-three vocabulary used throughout is that of AQA, with learning objectives aligned to the GCSE specification.
Would also make effective cover work, revision or year 12 transition work.
