This set of past paper questions covers the topic of Energy Resources. It covers the way power stations work and compares various energy resources (advantages and disadvantages).
It includes the mark scheme the shows how the marks are given.
It is an excellent resource to use for practice, revision and preparation for tests and exams.
A set of past paper questions that cover the topic of Gravitational Potential and Kinetic Energy (GPE an KE).
It includes the mark scheme the shows how the marks are given.
It is an excellent resource to use for practice, revision and preparation for tests and exams.
A set of past paper questions to cover the topic of springs and Hooke’s Law.
It covers everything on spring constant, limit of proportionality, graphing etc.
It includes the mark scheme the shows how the marks are given.
It is an excellent resource to use for practice, revision and preparation for tests and exams.
A set of 23 past paper questions (multiple choice and short answers) that covers the motion/kinematics topics. It has questions also on motion graphs.
The questions come along with their answers (mark scheme).
It is a great document for practice and/or revision for tests and exams
This document includes four past paper questions on experiments of the curriculum. It will benefit both the students who are taking alternative to practical papers or even the ones who are doing the actual experiments.
It includes the actual mark scheme for self assessment.
A document that contains all the keywords needed for GCSE Physics sorted by topic. It can be used for other curricula too. Next to each keyword is the meaning and sometimes the pronunciation.
I have compiled this document after I have seen my students struggling to use the right terminology either in class discussions or in tests.
Students can refer to this document during class or during their study time. They can also use it to get familiar with the terminology prior the lesson/topic.
It has really helped all my students and especially my EAL students. I can use this document to show support/differentiation for EAL students during observations.
It can be used also for younger and older students.
The document is 84 pages long.
Enjoy!
Learning Outcomes:
Use motion graphs to extract the equation of motion
Define distance, displacement, speed, velocity and acceleration
Use graphical methods to represent displacement, speed, velocity and acceleration
Derive the equations of motion
Students had to prepare a presentation to explain how electricity is produced in their countries and to discuss about their energy resources.
I prepared a presentation as an example of what I am expecting of them.
