sound frequency range

(0)
This worksheet can be used at the end of a lesson about the frequency ranges of sound, as a long pre-plenary(!)<br /> After students have been taught about the human listening range and the frequency boundaries for ultra and infra sounds, they can enhance and the tutor can assess their understanding. It includes also some &quot;extension&quot; questions for the quick students. (It looks better in colour)<br /> <br /> Viktoria Tsakyri

renewable and non renewable resources

(1)
Students are asked to identify the appropriate resources for each picture. The task requires recalling the basic renewable resources but also develops critical thinking as a combination of resources could be the answer. By the extension, the task becomes differentiated as the students are asked to explain their choice in detail.<br /> It can be used as a starter or plenary.<br /> <br /> Viktoria Tsakyri

thermal decomposition

(0)
This 2 page worksheet can help the students work on calculations and graphs on thermal decomposition after the process is presented and explained. It can be used also in the case that a real practical is not possible (i.e. very misbehaving group or low ability one). <br /> <br /> Viktoria Tsakyri

lenses

(0)
This page includes 4 tasks which can be used as mini plenaries through out a lesson on lenses. <br /> 1. students identify lenses in everyday uses<br /> 2. students try to describe a lens (suggestion: the teacher may give some hints and give the definition afterwords so that the students can mark themselves)<br /> 3. students identify the main key terms on a lens<br /> 4. after a short practical (moving lenses and observing the changes of the image), students may conclude about the main factors affecting the focal length and the magnification<br /> <br /> Viktoria Tsakyri

reducing energy use

(0)
The two slides include detailed instructions for the creation of a poster describing methods of reducing the energy used in a house. <br /> The questions to be answered are differentiated so the teacher can easily assess and grade each poster.<br /> The second slide shows how the poster should look like to guide the students.<br /> It is suggested to print out the two slides (preferably in colour) and distribute them to pairs.<br /> In the case of a low ability group you can use two 1 hour sessions (1st for the web search and 2nd for the creation of the poster and answering the questions).<br /> <br /> Viktoria Tsakyri

darwin-lamarck

(0)
This worksheet can be used as a quick plenary or starter to check the understanding of the difference between Darwin's and Lamarck's theories. The students should simply note if each frame is true or false and as an extension they should write an explanation for their answer. To save paper (!), the page contains the worksheet two times. It looks a lot better if you print it in colour!<br /> <br /> Viktoria Tsakyri

This worksheet/ppt presentation contains 5 slides which allow you to use it in different ways according to your group's level and ability.<br /> slide 1. project it and ask the students to complete the sentences for each picture while the types of energy are given<br /> slide 2. same as slide 1, but the energies aren't given, so it is more appropriate for a higher level group, already familiar with different types of energy<br /> slide 3. in case you need your students to concentrate at their own work on their desk print out and distribute this slide<br /> slide 4. same as slide 3, but for a higher ability group as the energies aren't given.<br /> slide 5. only the energies are included which you can print them out and after the students have started, you can distribute them to the ones who are straggling, showing off your differentiation! <br /> <br /> Viktoria Tsakyri

This page is split in three parts.<br /> 1. questions about refraction through a block and through lenses linked to the diagrams shown<br /> 2. questions on &quot;every day&quot; refraction (set fire with a magnifying lens and see through water)<br /> 3. questions on the given basic diagram of a refracting telescope.<br /> The page is quite &quot;dense&quot; in questions and diagrams, so it is mostly appropriate for higher level groups.<br /> But by splitting the tasks in more than one pages and giving more hints and keywords it can be used by any level group.<br /> <br /> Viktoria Tsakyri

The page is split in 4 tasks. The first two familiarise the students with infrared and ultraviolet radiation. The third assesses their understanding about the discovery of infrared and ultraviolet radiation. The last one, for higher level students, demands a deeper understanding of this topic.<br /> <br /> Viktoria Tsakyri

electrical power

(0)
This is an activity for understanding the concept of electrical power. It can be used after a theoretical session or while introducing the concept of power. The students should be given a set of 5 bulbs of different values of watt, voltage source, cables, an ammeter, a voltmeter and graph paper. They should be given the formula of calculation the power, P=IxV and instructed how to perform their measurements. The series of questions that follow the measurements are differentiated and can be used to assess the ability and level of understanding. <br /> <br /> Viktoria Tsakyri

evolution theories

(0)
This 2 page worksheet consists of four parts and can be used for assessing the students during a lesson about Darwin and Lamarck. <br /> Suggested way to use it:<br /> Part 1. After explaining Lamarck's theory, give your students some time to explain this theory in their own words by following the sequence of the pictures and encourage them to practice their English skills.<br /> Part 2. Before talking about Darwin, it is useful to explain the meaning of &quot;natural selection&quot;. In this part the students can link it with the giraffes' heights and also practice their Maths skills. <br /> Part 3. After mentioning Darwin's observations at Galapagos islands, ask your students to match the birds' beaks with the relevant food.<br /> Part 4. This can be your plenary and check if the difference between Darwin and Lamarck is clear and understood.<br /> <br /> Viktoria Tsakyri
