Learning Objectives Design a simple experiment to test different insulators Explain why some things need to be kept the same to make it a fair test Draw some conclusions from example results … Lesson Includes Starter activity (retrieval practice/recall) Warm-up activity Introduction to the keywords Teach/Check/Practice (I do/We do/You do) cycles with tasks that demonstrate that the learning objectives have been met in student books Opportunities for assessment for learning and independent practice with scaffolded tasks building to independence. Self-assessment answer slides Challenge extension work for higher ability students Worksheet (optional) Group reading SEND adaptations: the lesson is chunked to avoid working memory overload, blue background for Irlens, word banks are provided, text is broken up for dyslexia and a consistent format is followed for ASD. Group reading is differentiated in difficulty and keywords from previous lessons are reinforced. Learning from previous lessons is interlinked to help students catch up after absence. EAL adaptations: explicit teaching of vocabulary, word banks and use of visual representation on the slides … This lesson is suitable for supply teaching, cover supervisors and home learning (remote, distance or online). It is fully self-explanatory and can be delivered without specialist knowledge. Printed sheets are optional extras; the core lesson can be delivered without any printing or additional preparation. This presentation is fully editable.
