Microscopes RPA 1 (The Complete Required Practical Guide)

Running a practical science lesson is sometimes a challenge for even the most seasoned practitioners, for the new and training, its easily considered the most difficult and often avoided part of science teaching. There are two problems here though, one, it is a required part of our subject, there is no avoiding it, two, its often the practical teachers that are the most well loved and respected, resulting in a far higher level of attainment.

That is why I have compiled the ‘Complete required Practical Guide’ series.

Inside you will find a comprehensive student method, easily printable, with extendable questions, optimised for dyslexic students where possible and closely following the AQA AT outcomes for a practical lesson.

However, you’ll also find a complete equipment list, with optional extras, a rundown of modelling, running the activity and cleaning up. Common pitfalls identified and the all essential and often annoying risk assessment.

All of which will help any new or adapting teachers to deliver their Required Practical components with relatively little effort and… look good while doing it.
