An overview of how SMSC is embedded within the science curriculum throughout KS3 - KS5.

An A3 spread on the topic of elements, compounds and mixtures. Boxes to be filled in with pictures and equations to complete. Great to use as a revision sheet at the end of a topic.

An A4 spread to be completed by pupils. Boxes to be filled in and pictures to label - picture answers on the back. Can be used to aid revision, as a place mat, or to be filled in throughout the unit of work.

A powerpoint used with my current year 13’s on the option unit ‘Turning points’. Includes all the information pupils need - including practice questions, videos etc. It has been broken down into the three sections of the topic - The discovery of the electron Wave particle duality Special Relativity It is in a similar order to the students workbook so pupils can follow along/ prepare or revisit lessons. After each section of the topic we spent some time answer past exam questions on the knowledge the pupils had learnt (can be found on the AQA website) At the end of the whole topic I gave them a whole past paper.

Booklet can be used as a progress tracker for each student or can be broken down as needed. Follows Exploring Science 8. Booklet contains a tracker for all unit test information to be put onto. It then contains self assessment sheets for before and after each topic - descriptions of skills grouped into develop, secure and exceeding. A reflection sheet for each topic is also included for pupils to evaluate their learning.

Powerpoints to be used in the following order: Plants and animal cells Microscopes *Core Practical - Microscopes Enzyme action Enzyme activity *Enzyme - core practical Diffusion Osmosis *Osmosis - core practical Active Transport The Core practicals will require your own resources. Includes labeling activities, match the definitions, information and questions etc. Use your own worksheets etc to cement knowledge/ give homework.

Powerpoint includes information, questions and examples. Vector questions - depending on your learners, you might need more. SUVAT questions and answers included. Questions from AQA student textbook year 1 referenced with page numbers. Also an end of unit mini test with answers.

Key words lists for ALL topics following the Exploring Science scheme of work. 15 words per topic - can be used for spellings. Space for meanings to be added by pupils.

Powerpoints on different aspects of waves. Includes pictures, diagrams and explanations. You will need to add your own additional questions as mine have become corrupt and wont open/upload. Includes topics :Interference, superposition, diffraction and refraction.

Alll content for Specification statements: 3.3 Waves 3.3.1 Progressive and stationary waves 3.3.2 Refraction, diffraction and interference I have used this powerpoint with my year 12 - pupils have the AQA Year 1 student book which is referenced in the powerpoint. Specific questions have been picked out from the book for pupils to attempt in lessons/ own time. I have also used mini tests, exampro questions and worksheets (not included) to check understanding as we went through. Will probably need adapting for your pupils needs and additional resources/questions/ homeworks for pupils culminated.

KS3 science literacy assessments Follows exploring science 7- 9 - broken up per these topics. Introduction and question at the top, a space for notes, a space for organisation of thoughts and a space to write final answers. Used as an assessment tool science wide for consistency thought out the department.

This is a selection of resources from the KS3 science unit of Light. Includes powerpoints for all the main areas and worksheets where needed. It also includes many practicals to include within the unit - you can do a eye dissection if you choose to. I have used this series of powerpoints multiple times and work well with Exploring Science 8J.
