<p>A level lesson on phase difference and introduces concept of radians. The spreadsheet was not my creation - thanks to another TES uploader for this!</p>

<p>Lesson on resistivity. I got my AS level physicists to choose a book to read over the course of the term (thus the starter) and the lesson finishes with getting them to think about the required practical.</p>

<p>A-Level lesson looking at uses and structure of optical fibres. Includes a discussion on modal and material dispersion.</p>

<p>Observed lesson by the headteacher for A-Level Physics. Recieved outstanding rating on all fronts.</p>

<p>A-Level lesson on Snell’s law (comes after a lesson on refraction and diffraction)</p>

<p>A-Level Reminder lesson about the electromagnetic spectrum and electromagnetic imaging. Lots of everyday examples!</p>

<p>Used for A-Level but also fairly appropriate for GCSE. For the tarsia activity, the students need to cut out the triangle on each page and then match the questions to the answer (like a jigsaw). These can be re-used easily for another class if you collect each set separately.</p>

<p>Experiment of melting marshmallows on a microwave to find the speed of light (also works with chocolate). I can’t upload the past paper questions however for copyright reasons.</p>

<p>2nd Lesson on diffraction gratings (done after a practical - not yet uploaded to TES as I’ll need to rethink it next year). Includes qualitative theory and practice quantitative questions</p>

<p>Third lesson of A level physics electricity. Defines potential difference and resistance and pratices potential difference energy charge calculations and pd resistance current equations.</p>

<p>A Level lesson on polarisation - what it is, using polaroid filters and their uses.</p>

<p>An introduction lesson to A-Level stationary waves with lots of musical instrument examples. Best done if you (or students) can bring in some instruments! Makes stationary waves much more interesting to relate to music.</p> <p>Also looks at measuring the speed of sound with an open pipe and a tuning fork.</p>

<p>A Level lesson practicing using the wave equation (speed = frequency x wavelength) with plenty of question practice on the slides.</p>

<p>Second lesson on electrical power to an A-Level Class. I’m afraid I can’t attach the past paper questions for the final slide as that’s not my copyright</p>

<p>Second A-Level Lesson on TIR. (Concept is introduced in my Snell’s law lesson). Includes a couple of practicals with semicircular blocks, ray boxes/laser beams and prisms.</p>

<p>A simple practical lesson investigating Ohm’s Law with a couple of practice questions at the end</p>

<p>Done as an interview lesson for A-Level Physics. (I got the job so it must have been ok…). Includes a quick practical.</p>

<p>2 lessons (one theory and one practical) used for A-Level Physics</p>

<p>Used as second lesson of A Level electricity. Pin down a definition of current, introduce current charge time equation and practice calculations and (optional) do Kirchoff’s First law.</p>

<p>2nd lesson in A-Level stationary waves - introduces the equation and measure the speed of sound with a closed pipe and tuning fork.</p>

<p>Required practical for AQA A level - measuring emf, internal resistance.</p>
