Lessons from the 9I unit in the new Exploring Science scheme of work all about forces and motion.
Including lessons for:
9Ia Forces and Movement
9Ib Energy for Movement
9Ic Speed
9Id Turning Forces
9Ie More Machines
*Some of the lessons have references to worksheets from the ActiveLearn but could be replaced with other worksheets or omitted from the lesson completely.

This pack of materials consists of nine worksheets and fully worked out answers.
Resultant Forces
Forces and Motion: Distance Time Graphs
Forces and Motion: Velocity Time Graphs
Forces and Braking
Forces and Terminal Velocity
Forces and Elasticity
Forces and Energy: Potential Energy
Forces and Energy: Kinetic Energy
Momentum
They have been designed to match the needs of the AQA Physics GCSE syllabus for the first half of module P2, but could be used with any GCSE Physics syllabus or appropriate unit from GCSE Double Science. They are suitable for use in class or as homework. They cover the areas of forces, motion and energy.
Each worksheet contains the relevant equation/s to complete the work, so that students should find the tasks accessible. The focus for calculation questions is on the process of getting to the answer rather than the answer itself. (Many answer guides or mark schemes simply quote the correct answer without the details to help a struggling student see how it was achieved).
My aim is to produce five more units of similar materials to complete the Physics GCSE. I would appreciate any feedback, errors or omissions to help me with this work going forward.
Looking for a great activity to start your unit on Newton’s laws of motion? Don’t want to give a big lecture or start with a bunch of mathematical calculations? Students love PhET Interactive Simulations and this guided inquiry activity on forces and motion is a great way to get started. Have fun and learn at the same time.
This online lab activity uses the Forces and Motion: Basics HTML5 simulation from PhET Interactive Simulations. The simulation can be run from most cellphones, tablets and computers. Nothing to download or install.
I find this to be a great guided inquiry activity that will work well for students from middle school through high school. This activity will guide students as they investigate different force scenarios and how they affect the motion of objects. They will be able to determine the magnitude and direction of the net force acting on an object, describe the effect of balanced and unbalanced forces acting on an object and why an object doesn’t move even when forces are being applied to it.
PhET simulations incorporate research based, student centered activities that are fun and easy to use. All of the PhET simulations are available from their website: PhET Interactive Simulations.
After completion of this activity you can have further discussions about the types of forces acting on an object, drawing free body diagrams, and the relationship between mass, force and acceleration as described by Newton’s second law of motion.
This product includes:
(1) The activity worksheets.
(2) An answer key for the worksheets.
(3) Notes covering a full description of Newton’s laws of motion.

A Comprehensive set of resources to teach and test Forces and Motion (Chapter 3) for CIE IGCSE exams.
Package includes;
A complete 64-page presentation resource-pack explaining in detail the whole chapter. The presentation comprise of teaser questions, worked examples, recommended experiments, simulation, video and detailed explanations with flow of lesson in note section of presentation.
A complementary handout which is provided to the students during the lesson. This saves time for students as they don’t have to take intense notes thus enabling them to focus on the lecture. The handout carries questions that are discussed in the class and help teachers detect any knowledge gap in their comprehension of concepts. But more importantly, the handout is a comprehensive summary of the chapter which the student can refer back to when needed.
A 29- page worksheet which includes handpicked 32 multiple choice questions from past papers 2 and 12 structured questions from past papers 4. The questions are carefully selected to keep them relevant to the topic (Forces and motion and intersections of previous topics) and avoid chapters that the students have not studied yet.

Force and motion is made easy with this resource All About Force: A Flipbook on Force. This packet is a 20-page resource that consists of foldables/templates that can be used to create a flipbook on force and motion. It can be used to summarize your students' key learnings or understanding.
Page 3 contains an Introduction.
Pages 4 -8 show the different parts of the force and motion flipbook:
*Cover
*Pages 2-5
Pages 9-13 feature the ready-made templates that you and your students can use to create your own flipbook on force and motion.
Page 14 contains the Credits.
Page 15 focuses on the Terms of Use.
Note: I came up with this flipbook to help my students summarize what they have learned about force and motion. I understand that not all Science classes are the same, but the sample work reflects the key learning by my fourth grade students for the term. I included an editable copy that you can modify if you wish to. However, take note that I used the font KG Miss Speechy. You would need to download this from Kimberly Geswein's store if you want the same font. I hope this force and motion resource suits your needs.

Complete No-Prep lesson with exam questions, tasks and answers on Vector Diagrams and Resolving Forces for AQA GCSE (9-1) Science / Physics. This lesson covers the second part of AQA GCSE Physics 4.5.1.4 / Combined Science 6.5.1.4 and is for higher tier students only.
As a Secondary Science teacher, Deputy Headteacher, writer and examiner for many years I make high quality no-prep lessons so busy teachers can teach outstanding lessons without spending hours planning. This high quality lesson includes explanations, different types of in-lesson assessment (all with answers) and unique exam questions.
My lessons are ideal for non-Physicists - as a Biologist who retrained as a Physics teacher I know how to take learners on a journey that builds up their understanding step by step, while still going into a lot of depth. The preview video shows a representative sample of slides from the resource so that you get a good idea of what it includes before you buy.
What’s Included:
• Teaching notes
• Starter / Do Now Activity
• Explanation slides in “chunked” sections with animated diagrams.
• Worked examples of calculations / questions.
• Multiple questions in different question styles and difficulties - no need for worksheets. Each “chunked” explanation section typically includes a set of “learning check / quick questions” followed by a set of in-depth questions on the learning from that “chunk” of the lesson. All questions have answers.
• Exam-style questions on the whole lesson at the end of the lesson- these are unique, based on real exam questions but not just copied from exam boards.
• Answers for all questions
• All easily editable to adapt to your teaching or to use in existing lessons.
• Slightly humorous, at points, if you like that sort of thing.
The lesson was written for AQA GCSE Science / Physics but is very likely to be applicable to other exam specifications.
Please leave a rating / review and all other feedback gratefully received!
