A lesson on Kinetic energy and energy transfers (Leads on from gravitational potential energy) The lesson is fully differentiated (A*-C, adaptable to 9-1). Pupils will: 1) Attempt differentiated questions on Kinetic energy matching 9-1 outcomes 2) Build a loop the loop and apply KE and GPE calculations to determine how much KE (or speed) it takes for a marble to do a loop. Teacher guidance on PPT. 3) Review their learning using an exam style plenary question (or complete for home learning) PowerPoint and worksheet included.

A lesson on Work done and power output. The lesson is fully differentiated (A*-C, adaptable to 9-1) and encourages pupils to develop on their understanding of energy and relate to power output. The lesson content aims to develop pupils qualitative and quantitative understanding of work done and power and apply them contextually. Pupil activities: 1. Calculating work done and power (with answers for self-assessment) 2. Practical in which pupils determine how much work is required to burn off the energy of a kit kat eaten. PowerPoint and worksheet included.

A lesson on Specific Heat Capacity and a good preparation lesson to the required practical. The lesson is fully differentiated (9-1) and easily adaptable to student needs. Pupils will: 1) Undertake a gradient calculation as a starter (links to Required practical criteria) 2) Describe how specific heat capacity qualitatively and from fundamental basics build onto the calculations PowerPoint and worksheet included.

A lesson on Ultrasound as part of the unit on waves The lesson is differentiated (9-1) and encourages pupils to take an independent approach to their learning. The lesson content aims to develop pupils qualitative understanding of ultrasound waves and be able to build confidence on working on exam style questions PowerPoint and worksheet included.
