GCSE physics question sheet on gears. Pupils have to determine the speed of the final gear in the sequence.

Worksheet for simple unbalanced force calculations. Bonus question provides extension and much debate as what the size of the resultant force is

Relative speed simple calculation sheet aimed at KS3, aged 11-14 to fit in with the new KS3 program of physics study

Coloured filter worksheet for pupils to predict the colour of light that will pass through a filter or combination of filters. It can used at KS3 or GCSE. I found it a challengin enough recap/intro when going through idea with the AQA GCSE course

A bunch of questions I use to teach/assess/homework for A-level physics for the capacitor part of the course. I have used for AQA and OCR although questions are generic.

Multiple choice questions designed for use with AQA A-level. Although this part of the course is not examined by multiple choice I find it useful in testing the syllabus as well as preparing students for multiple choice style questions in general

Pupil sheet for a practical investigation of centripetal force using the equipment shown. Used for all boards at A-level AQA, OCR, Edexcel, WJEC.

KS3 test on light. Word file with a few extra extension questions for v able pupils. Can be cut and pasted to form other assessments. Mainly reflection, pinhole camera, shadows.

A game I use for revision at the end of the thermal physics section of AQA A-level physics. Content must be enabled to work. Split the group in two teams and number is chosen. One member of each team comes up to a buzzer. First to hit it gets the chance to answer. If they get it right the square turns their colour, if they get it wrong it goes to the other team. Next two players take a turn until one team has made a chain of their colour from either top to bottom or side to side. Don’t save after playing (or save a clean version) or it takes a while to return the squares to the same colour.

Worksheet on what different flags will look like when viewed through primary and secondary coloured filters. This is a fun activity which helps pupils to think about what happens to the different components of white light when they pass through filters. Useful for KS3, I have also used with AQA GCSE (9-1).

Insulation practical. Suitable for KS3 or 4 after pupils have learned about conduction, convection , radiation heat transfer. Pupils have to decide the most effective form of insulation on a budget. Practical can lead on to produce cooling curves, or homework can be set to complete a information sheet about the design saying which materials were chosen and why.

Analogy of selling corn. Starter enables to see if they can work out how long it takes to decrease to a certain amount if half are sold each day. The more mathematically able can get it fairly soon and apply the idea to radioactivity.

5 Specific Charge multiple choice questions. I use as weekly assessment to check on understanding but could also be used as a worksheet or part of a homework.

A game I use for revision at the end of the particle physics section of AQA A-level physics. Content must be enabled to work. Split the group in two teams and number is chosen. One member of each team comes up to a buzzer. First to hit it gets the chance to answer. If they get it right the square turns their colour, if they get it wrong it goes to the other team. Next two players take a turn until one team has made a chain of their colour from either top to bottom or side to side. Don’t save after playing (or save a clean version) or it takes a while to return the squares to the same colour.

Prompt sheets for AQA A-Level required Capacitor practical. Students need to choose appropriate values for the components to produce usable results.

Particle Physics homework for A-level physics. Looks at specific charge and nuclear notation.

Suitable for KS3 or KS4 as a quick lesson starter to see what misconceptions pupils have, before moving on to Newton’s second Law.

A game I use for revision at the end of the quantum physics section of AQA A-level physics. Content must be enabled to work. Split the group in two teams and number is chosen. One member of each team comes up to a buzzer. First to hit it gets the chance to answer. If they get it right the square turns their colour, if they get it wrong it goes to the other team. Next two players take a turn until one team has made a chain of their colour from either top to bottom or side to side. Don’t save after playing (or save a clean version) or it takes a while to return the squares to the same colour.

PowerPoint going through the derivation of Smell’s Law. It is used to show where it comes from. Although not required it does highlight how the change in speed causes the change in angle.

Lens investigation for KS3 or GCSE. Convex lenses can be used to project the image of a filament bulb on a screen.

PowerPoint showing how to draw a ray diagram through a glass block when it refracts. The PowerPoint goes onto to show the analogy of a car driving from a road onto a beach from a road to give a feel for the turning effect. I have used at KS3 and GCSE (suitable for AQA, OCR and EDEXCEL)
