Complete No-Prep lesson with exam questions, tasks and answers on Magnets, Magnetism and Magnetic Fields for AQA GCSE (9-1) Science / Physics. This lesson covers all of AQA GCSE Physics 4.7.1.1 and 4.7.1.2 / Combined Science 6.7.1.1 and 6.7.1.2. This lesson was significantly rewritten and improved Feb 2024.
It is very likely that if you do all the mini practicals this lesson will take more than one hour – a double lesson is ideal. Because this is the first lesson in the sequence and establishes the basics of the topic, it may also be suitable for many KS3 classes with editing.

• Exam-style questions on the whole lesson at the end of the lesson- these are unique, based on real exam questions but not just copied from exam boards.
• Answers for all questions
• All easily editable to adapt to your teaching or to use in existing lessons.
Learning objectives:
Describe the structure and purpose of the national grid.
Describe the difference between step-up and step-down transformers and how each is used in the national grid.
Explain why the national grid is an efficient way to transfer energy.
The lesson was written for AQA GCSE Science / Physics but is very likely to be applicable to other exam specifications.

Complete No-Prep lesson with exam questions, tasks and answers on Energy Transfers and Power for the Electricity Topic of AQA GCSE (9-1) Science / Physics. This lesson covers exam spec points 4.2.4.1 and 4.2.4.2 (Physics) or 6.2.4.1 and 6.2.4.2 (Combined Science).
As a Secondary Science teacher, Deputy Headteacher, writer and examiner for many years I make high quality no-prep lessons so busy teachers can teach outstanding lessons without spending hours planning. This high quality lesson includes explanations, different types of in-lesson assessment (all with answers) and unique exam questions.
My lessons are ideal for non-Physicists - as a Biologist who retrained as a Physics teacher I know how to take learners on a journey that builds up their understanding step by step, while still going into a lot of depth. The preview video shows a representative sample of slides from the resource so that you get a good idea of what it includes before you buy.
What’s Included:
• Starter / Do Now Activity
• Explanation slides in “chunked” sections with animated diagrams.
• Worked examples of calculations / questions.
• Multiple questions in different question styles and difficulties - no need for worksheets. Each “chunked” explanation section typically includes a set of “learning check / quick questions” followed by a set of in-depth questions on the learning from that “chunk” of the lesson. All questions have answers.
• Exam-style questions on the whole lesson at the end of the lesson- these are unique, based on real exam questions but not just copied from exam boards.
• Answers for all questions
• All easily editable to adapt to your teaching or to use in existing lessons.
• Slightly humorous, at points, if you like that sort of thing.
Learning objectives:
Describe how domestic appliances transfer energy.
Describe how the amount of energy an appliance transfers depends on its power and how long it is on for.
Describe how work is done when charge flows in a circuit.
Calculate the amount of energy transferred by electrical work using:
E = P t
E = Q V.
Calculate power using
P = V I
P = I2 R

Complete No-Prep lesson with exam questions, tasks and answers on Current, Resistance and Potential Difference for AQA GCSE (9-1) Science / Physics. The lesson covers all of AQA GCSE Physics 4.2.1.3 and a small part of 4.2.4.2 (energy transferred = charge flow x potential difference) because this helps to explain potential difference.
This lesson is the second in the Electricity sequence and follows on from Circuits, Current and Charge.

Learning objectives:
Explain what potential difference is and how we measure it.
Apply the equation energy transferred = charge flow x potential difference to describe how potential difference relates to energy transfer.
Explain what resistance is, what causes it and how we measure it.
Describe how the current through a component depends on both resistance and potential difference, and that a greater resistance will result in a smaller current for any given potential difference.
Apply the equation potential difference = current x resistance.

Complete No-Prep lesson with exam questions, tasks and answers on Specific Heat Capacity for AQA GCSE (9-1) Science / Physics. Rewritten and improved 16.05.22.
Specific Heat Capacity is included in the exam specification in two separate places:
Energy Topic (Physics 4.1.1.3 / Combined Science 6.1.1.3) where it is followed by a required practical.
Particle Model of Matter Topic (Physics 4.3.2.2 / Combined Science 6.3.2.2)
The exam spec points are virtually the same for each. I have written this lesson so that it can be taught in either place, however the required practical means it is likely to be taught in the energy topic.

Learning objectives:
Describe the difference between thermal energy and temperature.
Define specific heat capacity.
Describe the factors that affect the amount of energy stored in or released from a system as its temperature changes.
Explain how specific heat capacity can affect temperature changes and energy stored or released for different substances.
Use the equation below to determine the temperature change, mass or specific heat capacity of an object, or the change in thermal energy.
Change in thermal energy = Mass x Specific Heat Capacity x Temperature Change
