Please have a look at my other GCSE and A Level Physics resources.
This sheet models completion of Physics calculations showing all the working out. This allows students to complete examples side-by-side with a worked example. In this sheet using the equation, work done = force x distance.
Students follow one worked example for an energy analysis calculation then complete further examples side-by-side. They are then given three further examples.
This worksheet models how to set out working for calculations on acceleration in GCSE Physics and combined science.
Students follow the examples side-by-side and then have a go at the five practice questions.
A poster for your walls giving a step-by-step approach to answering physics questions. There is a video accompanying this to give an explanation of how to use this. This would also be a good idea for inserts into books.
