Hoppers Physics Graph pack 3: using different scales

(0)
This graph pack works with the other two, also available on tes resources to teach the pupils how to use different scales. It starts with a simple bar graph, does an easy line graph and then works 7 more graph tasks with different scales. Helpful questions get the pupils to think about how to represent their data and there are some questions at the end to work through related to the graphs drawn previously. Excellent for cover, this stand alone pack needs no equipment. Also useful after other tasks in lessons, or when you just need an easy lesson at the end of a hard day. We use this with year 5 but would work well on both sides of this.

Light: Sending messages by light.

(0)
Useful for a lesson on different ways we send messages by light, in how we see things or a more general light topic this work sheet provides cross curricular links to maths and history and possibly fundamental British values as well as talking about broadband which means you can spring off into many different routes. The main challenge is for the pupils to independently make a code to send a message in pairs or groups as fast as possible. Often results in some great photos for sticking in workbooks, twitter feeds etc. Make the pupils do the work and get maximum science exposure! Useful for KS 3 and Common entrance GCSE, middle school and older depending on how you work the connections to other topics and subjects.

These density lesson starters feature 3 x 5 question multiple choice power points. They are set up to change every thirty seconds and include an answer page. Easy to use and get debate about wrong answers, really useful if used with polling software(like turning point) but equally useful with whiteboards or a good old fashioned piece of paper. A quick way to review last lessons work, or to provide a plenary at the end of the lesson.
