AQA Physics P4 Atomic Structure

Thank you for viewing and downloading my resources for the KS4 AQA Physics P4 Atomic Structure. This topic includes the following lessons;

P4.1 History of the Atom (FREE)
P4.2 Structure of the Atom
P4.3 Radioactivity and Decay
P4.4 Activity and Half-life
P4.5 Irradiation and Contamination
P4.6 Background Radiation
P4.7 Radiation and Absorption RPA (FREE)

This is a complete lesson with set tasks for the AQA GCSE (9-1) Physics specification. Each lesson within the topic has been carefully written to prevent overloading cognitive function. Lessons include retrieval practice with set tasks to move learning from working to long-term memory. In some instances, literacy and oracy tasks as well as breakdown of scientific vocabulary have been included. Crucial whole class feedback is gained through the use of mini white board tasks.
My aim is to make high quality science lessons based on evidence informed research. I have included detailed teaching notes so that non-specialists and newly qualified science teachers can pick up a lesson and teach straight away. Each high-quality lesson includes step-by-step animated builds, and explanations with answers included for ease of use. I have also included references to key texts.
Bundle packages are also available. Please check my shop for the rest of the lessons within the topic, plus other science lessons to help you build your resources, and remember to leave me a lovely review
