Homework task
Revision PowerPoint for use with a mixed ability year 11 class. Covers all objectives from the Edexcel Additional Physics topic 5 on Radioactivity.
All activities mentioned on the PowerPoint are on the activity document, where pupils can work at it after you have covered/revised the content. There is also exam practice on the document.
3 physics (P2) 6 mark questions and writing frames for 3 past paper questions from Edexcel. Mix of higher and foundation tier. Mark schemes included.
Questions content:
Resistors and current (LDR and thermistor)
Explaining and the uses of static electricity.
Stopping distance, including F=ma, P=mv and E=Fd
Can be printed back to back to be set as revision homework. Can be used as class activity.
These were used on a revision day and were very well received by pupils.
Second topic of the new Edexcel physics transition module for KS3/GCSE.
This topic covers the Kinetic theory model, including density of solids, liquids and gases.
There is also a lesson on Absolute zero, which is currently covered in the P3 Extension unit. This powerpoint could be used for triple award groups.
All worksheets come with answers and are fully differentiated.
2 PowerPoints; one for Combined and one for the Separate science course as they are quite different.
I have used these resources with a top set triple year 10 group and a bottom set year 9 group with good results so it is well differentiated where possible.
If any resources are mentioned but NOT included it is because I did not make them and therefore am not selling them. Check out the free resource part of my page to find it, or contact me and I will send it to you! This includes the tests/assessments.
This booklet is set out lesson by lesson. Students can either take this home and do it themselves or you can go through it question by question in class.
There are a variety of differentiated activities and the activities are all different.
Content covered:
Radiation in medicine (PET scans)
Intensity
How eyes work
Lenses and the lens equation
Sight problems
Distance and image height PCA
Reflection
Refraction
Critical angle
Total internal reflection
Using reflection and refraction (ultrasounds)
A 100 question multiple choice quiz set into rounds. Aimed at foundation for pure knowledge recall.
I use them at the beginning/end of my lessons to get students to recall key information regularly.
Answers are included and instructions for use of the quiz are on one of the beginning slides. An excellent starter/Plenary.
Resource contains scheme of work with technician notes and specification objectives to be covered (these are from the exam spec). Practical notes to technicians are also included so you know what equipment to order each time.
Lesson 1 - Energy recap from Paper 5 (Topic 3)
Lesson 2 - Work and Power including mini practical
Lesson 3 - Forces affecting each other including mini practical.
Lesson 4 (HIGHER TIER ONLY) - Vector diagrams including a silly example the students will (hopefully) love. Minealways remember the ‘rubber duck lesson’.
Lesson 5 (TRIPLE ONLY) - Turning forces (Moments, levers and gears).
Full topic of 5 lessons. Covers the core practical on Hookes Law as well as the extra content for triple scientists.
The presentation does not talk specifically about Hooke as we find that time is tight by the time we reach topic 15, and it is not specifically outlined in the specification.
A homework on the core practical with a video link is included. This is part of a core practical booklet that was created for my combined scientists. The full resource is available in my TES shop.
Some content referenced is from the Pearson Active Teach - Your school need to have a subscription to this to access the documents referenced.
The Easter bunny has been murdered by another bunny! Possibly a jealous or overworked one.
There are 5 clues (a couple with science themes) for the teams to figure out to lead them to the final clue. When they have completed the puzzle, they can begin crossing suspects off the list to find the killer!
There really is minimal effort required from the teacher. Set it up, introduce the murder and let them compete. Just tick the team’s box when they have finished each clue and advance the slide to give the answer when the time runs out.
Includes:
PowerPoint presentation leading pupils through the Case brief and clues. Also includes answers.
Anagram code for clue 1
Crossword sheet and answers for clue 2.
Wordsearch for clue 4
Speed calculation sheet for clue 5.
CSI case brief
Front cover for the murder file
List of suspects and information
NB: Clue 3 is found in the presentation so you can edit the names if you like! It is a classification key.
Includes the 7 topics in the first paper
Topic 1 - Key concepts (throughout the other topics)
Topic 2 - Motion and Forces
Topic 3 - Conservation of energy
Topic 4 - Waves
Topic 5 - EMS
Topic 6 - Radioactivity
Topic 7 - Astronomy.
