I am a super dyslexic teacher, with a dash of ADD, all my resources are built with access in mind, because honestly, if they weren't I wouldn't be able to read them. Note the pastel tones, chunking and clear notation ques. As such my resources are also super easy to scaffold or stretch, and definitely easy to replicate.
Please enjoy, and hang in there, at whatever school you're at, I can guarantee that those kids need you in their lives a lot more than you realise.

My style of teaching isn’t for everyone, I’m a dyslexic teacher who’s heard it all, my lessons are all catered towards accessibility (because if they were not I’d never be able to read them myself). Everything is short sharp and to the point, I don’t believe in endless writing, reams of printing, spoon feeding diagrams or pointless activities. Every minute matters!

Brilliant lesson for year 7 particularly for them just getting the hang of BiG Skool expectations. The lesson walks you through idea that white light is actually split into different wavelengths, the human eye ony recognises three and our brain fills in all the blanks, by spinning spinner faster than our eye can recogise we can trick our brain into recognising white light. A colour printer is useful for low ability, but high abilities will LOVE getting thier fancy big skool colouring pens out.

A damn tough lesson to teach, but actually a really simple concept, stuff gets hot, stuff jiggles about, stuff spreads out. Keep it simple and you cant go wrong, you’ll need a worksheet, I use kerboodles for this but the really key bit, suprisingly is the exceptionally childish narrative exercise, get kids writing silly stories about Jimmy the drip and it tattoos the information onto their brain stem!

Brilliant lesson, focusing on whole class questioning, get a good bouncing question technique going with some solid 'no shouting out' ground rules and you're onto a winner, perfect for getting in all those awesome demos too, like the ol heating up a broken rich tea biscuit of golden syrup and water over a packed tray of sand.

Super challenging subject this, its all about the build up so make sure you 've laid solid groundwork first, this is a mostly practical lesson with students setting up immersion heaters, measing the latent heat of fusion (how much energy it takes to melt something) and then plugging through a multistage equation to calculate an answer, easily extended to check the official figure for Lf and consider the percentage error of results. Super fun but also makes the kids feel like this is the sum of quite a familiar stretch of physics.

Originally written as a computer lesson it also works well as a read and complete session, students follow the teacher board, but then complete the tasks on their own presentations by researching pictures on the internet which exactly match the terms they search with.

I LOVE this lesson, anyonewho's a fan of KISS will love it too. Essentially you'll start off with comparing the slinky model (which everyone uses) to draw sound waves with volume and pitch, insert a few comical voices here and there and you're away, the students will have these logged in their books. Then the real fun begins, your challenge then is to get students to gradually improve a sound wave on the board to get KISS's 'I wanna rock and roll all night' out of a monotone drool and into the sound it should be. After their inevitable success then you can play a full clip of what KISS actually look like (class gasps), after that there's a ghost hunt with fairly comical names to do. Solid learning, comical twists and the added satisfaction of kids walking all over school singing KISS at the top of their little lungs!

Getting a jump start on inefficiencies and the second and first laws of thermodynamics, this lesson gets students excited about the good 'ol pendulum, P.S parents will not forgive you if you put pendulum (the band) on in the background! This lesson is easily dialled up or down for all abilities though I would recommend getting your own style on the practical, everyone teaches it differently and its wide open to reinterpretation.

AIRZOOKA. Get one as soon as possible, its perfect for demonstrating how sound travels through the air and super fun for choosing kids for questioning with. This is a great lesson that has students investigating sound and waves and then building a string and cup telephone, students will then investigate how sound travels through water and metal. Great for EAL students and accesable for all.

Activities galore! this lesson has students running all over the place, full engagement and not much teacher talk at all, most students have a basic knowledge of the solar system and this lesson gives them a chance to lead the teaching in a way which is not always possible for KS3. Crank up the pace and then you just sit and chill.

Get out the oscilloscope and practice your best Pete Tong impression, buzzing flies and revving motorbikes fun. Alternating current for the new AQA curriculum is rolled into the national grid model making it a little bit more of a stretch to get it all in, fortunately there's a lot of prior knowledge to build on and this lesson takes full advantage of that. Use a torch and a desk lamp in front of a visualiser and you can get a pretty decent demo of AC and DC current (the lamp flickers, the torch does not).
