<p>This lesson includes:<br />
-Starter slide, with a recall question on last lesson (Kinetic Energy)<br />
-Looking at two objects at different heights comparing their GPE -initial ideas about GPE<br />
-Title and Success criterial/Learning Objectives for the lesson<br />
-GPE definition and Equation<br />
-GPE equation practice questions<br />
-<strong>Practical Task:</strong> Investigating the rebounce height of different balls<br />
-Write a conclusion based on the practical task<br />
Thanks for looking :)</p>
<p>This is the second lesson in the Energy topic: It’s Lesson 2 - Energy transfers.</p>
<p>Starter: Remembering what we did last time - students can look at the picture and try and remember the names of as many energy stores as possible</p>
<p>Main: Light saber demonstration. Students get to think about energy changes, energy input and energy output.</p>
<p>Circus activity: Students will move around different stations. They will look at a system (eg a torch, tennis ball falling etc) and will complete a table with the energy input and energy output for each system.<br />
They will then self assess this using the slide on the board.</p>
<p>Then, the teacher can give an example of an energy change and identify with the students the useful and wasted energy output.</p>
<p>Students will then go back to their table and use a green pencil to circle the useful energy transfer and a red pen to circle the wasted one.</p>
<p>Plenary: Students will write their own example of an everyday life process on the piece of the card.<br />
Then give it to the person sitting next to them and ask them to identify the energy transfer/change in their example.</p>
<p>This is the first lesson from Topic 1: Energy. It looks at energy stores.</p>
<p>Starter: Quick Discussion about energy stores using a Playground picture as a stimulous.</p>
<p>Title, keywords and L.O for students are on the second slide</p>
<p>Task 1: Students are using statements and keywords on the next slide to fill in the table</p>
<p>Task 2: Quick ‘identifying the energy stores’ activity - Self assessment and discussion</p>
<p>Task 3: Nando’s spice level activity for plenary</p>
<p>The lesson consists of the following:</p>
<p>-Starter slide for students to discuss about the energy stores and energy transfers that they covered in the last lessons.</p>
<ul>
<li>Main body: Kinetic energy introductions, factors that affect kinetic energy (mass and speed), equation and symbol equation.</li>
<li>Practical with toy cars and ramps</li>
<li>Writing and assessing conclusions</li>
</ul>
<p>-Plenary: Spice level questions for the students to practice the kinetic energy equation</p>
<p>Lemon and herb: Use of the equation<br />
Medium: Use of the equation and conversion to the correct SI units<br />
Hot: Rearrange of the equation to find mass or speed.</p>
