Physics Pack

This Science bundle contains 12 resources. This is a great way stock your physics resource arsenal, all lessons are designed to meet ‘Outstanding’ inspection criteria.

Resources include:

Energy Efficiency: Energy Efficiency Lesson

This is a fully differentiated lesson teaching pupils about energy efficiency

It is suggested that you include a practical such as the custard powder with Bunsen burner experiment. A you tube link for this is included within the PPT should you wish to show the pupils without conducting the experiment yourself.

This Science resource pack contains: A PPT (27 slides) and handouts (8 sheets) .

Activities include:

Starter Task: Two Thinking Skills questions- One on efficiency and one on energy transfer.

An energy transfer and efficiency activity-We suggest that the ‘Differentiated Word Bank’ be printed on the back of the energy transfer and efficiency activity sheet for ease of use should the pupils require it.
A YouTube clip on the custard powder experiment.
An activity on devices and percentage of waste.
Activity-Create a bar Graph based on the data for the devices and percentage of waste.
Extension Task: Create a pie chart on the data.
Plenary (Exit task) : Good Graph, Bad Graph-Pupils are shown examples of bar graphs and are asked if they are correct or incorrect.

Energy Transfer: This is a lesson teaching pupils the different types of energy transfer and the conservation of energy.

It is suggested that you include a practical such as the screaming jelly baby or the custard powder with Bunsen burner experiment. A you tube link for both of these is included within the PPT should you wish to show the pupils without conducting the experiment yourself.

This Science resource pack contains: A PPT (14 slides) and handouts (2 sheets) .

Included in this Science resource is one of our timers complete with MUSIC.

Activities include:

Starter Task: Thinking Skills question on energy transfer
Activity on on energy transfer in the body.
Thinking Skills activity on energy transfer with everyday devices.
Choice of two YouTube clips on the two practicals mentioned above.
You may conduct one of these experiments yourself if you so wish.
Plenary (Exit task) : Starter & Plenary Prompt Selector . This alone is worth £3!

In our lessons, all key words are added to our KS3 Science - Scientific Vocabulary A-Z .

Renewable Energy AFL Activity: Pull the udder one! A completely customisable true or False activity. This particular one is based on renewable energy. Pupils love the interaction shouting moo (true) or quacking for false statements. This can be used as a starter, plenary or an AFL checkpoint activity throughout the lesson.

Types of Energy: Energy: Types of Energy is an interactive lesson that consists of 26 slides (PowerPoint) on the topic of Energy and an 8 page Energy resource booklet covering the different types of Energy;
Kinetic Energy
Sound Energy
Chemical Energy
Thermal Energy
Electrical Energy
Solar Energy
Light Energy
Gravitational potential Energy
Elastic potential Energy
You can find a preview of the booklet that is included in this lesson @ http://fliphtml5.com/gonfq/sdyc The starter activity is based on our conveyer pelt activity and is designed to ascertain prior knowledge. There is a worksheet to fill in based on this and the subsequent class discussion. Pupils then peer assess each other’s work. There is an interactive selector based on the popular fidget spinners. Pupils are taken through the 8 different types of energy and they have to make notes on the ‘What is energy?’ worksheet. It is suggested that this be enlarged to A3 size. Pupils are tasked with inserting the new vocabulary learnt during the lesson into their vocabulary booklets. Following which there is an interactive quiz where pupils are asked 20 questions (provided) and the team to get the most points wins.

Friction: A Grab and Go Lesson! To see a video of this lesson please visit: https://www.facebook.com/TeachElite/

Alternatively, you can download a copy of the sample video from: https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/friction-sample-11588011 This is a complete lesson on the topic of Friction. It includes a fully editable lesson plan, PowerPoint, Differentiated activities (at the end of the PowerPoint) and a Pupil Peer Assessment sheet. The PowerPoint includes a bell task linking back to forces and a conveyor belt activity on the topic of forces too. Pupils are taught the basic principles of friction and then are given the task of creating a leaflet on the topic. There is a level ladder included in this pack based on Skill 1: Finding Information.

Abstract planet Timers: This is a fun countdown timer resource that can be used as a time management tool in any lesson. You have a choice between various abstract planets. The timers are set to 1, 2, 3 or 4 minutes, but you can easily alter the timing between in the animation pane. Each abstract planet can be added to your own slides and displayed in the right hand corner if you so wish!

Circuit Symbols: Pull the udder one! A completely customisable true or False activity. This particular one is based on circuit symbols. Pupils love the interaction shouting moo (true) or quacking for false statements. This can be used as a starter, plenary or an AFL checkpoint activity throughout the lesson.

Circuits AFL activity: Pull the udder one! A completely customisable true or False activity. This particular one is based on Circuits. Pupils love the interaction shouting moo (true) or quacking for false statements. This can be used as a starter, plenary or an AFL checkpoint activity throughout the lesson.

Forces AFL activity: Pull the udder one! A completely customisable true or False activity. This particular one is based on forces. Pupils love the interaction shouting moo (true) or quacking for false statements. This can be used as a starter, plenary or an AFL checkpoint activity throughout the lesson.

Solar System - Conveyor Belt: This is based on the Generation Game activity and is centred around the planets in our solar system. Useful for Starter, Plenaries and mini AFL activities throughout the lesson-Pupils love this activity!

Space Investigation: This is an independent learning investigation about our solar system. Pupils are asked to research the planets and find relevant information about them. This includes extension tasks whereby pupils research the origins of the universe and current theories (Big Bang and Red Shift).

Energy: Sankey Diagrams: This is a fully differentiated lesson teaching pupils of how to represent energy efficiency as a Sankey diagram.

This Sankey Diagram pack contains: A PPT (33 slides) and handouts (5 sheets) . Activities include: Starter Task:A Thinking Skills questions- on energy efficiency. A demonstration on how to draw Sankey Diagrams.
Pupils will then look at three devices and their energy efficiency. Activity: Pupils have to calculate the energy efficiency of these three items and create Sankey diagrams based on the data. There are differentiated sheets within the workbook to aid pupils who are having difficulties in drawing them. A peer assessment on the individual activities is included too. Exit task/Plenary: Pupils have to name the energy in the pictures, identify the useful energies and state whether they are efficient or not. In our lessons, all key words are added to our KS3 Science - Scientific Vocabulary A-Z .
