Science Lessons 4 You

Average Rating5.00
(based on 4 reviews)

Having taught in the UK and abroad, I've experienced teaching many different syllabi including SABIS, AQA, WJEC and Cambridge. I develop resources to help teachers model key concepts, provide practice for students and include answers to help students self-assess their work. Planning for a 27 lesson week can be stressful to say the least, so I hope you find my resources useful. Thank you for choosing my lesson/s, I hope they enrich your teaching practice and make your life easier.

Power and the Cost of Electricity

(0)
PowerPoint that covers power and the cost of electricity for a KS3 level class. The starter revisits efficiency and energy stores from previous lessons to enhance memory recall. The power equation (power = energy transferred / time) is covered with an example of how to show working out. Slides include rearranging the equation and unit conversions. The cost equation (cost = power x time x cost per kWh) is also covered. Answers are included.
Weight and Terminal Velocity
Malachite44Malachite44

Weight and Terminal Velocity

(0)
Describe the difference between mass and weight. Describe the forces acting on an object falling through a fluid. Explain what terminal velocity is and when it is reached.

(0)
PowerPoint that covers the following learning objectives: Describe and explain what happens when light is refracted. Draw a refraction diagram. Includes diagrams, explanations, questions and answers. If you could spare 5 minutes, please review this resource, to help my online presence grow! :)
GCSE Energy and Efficiency
Malachite44Malachite44

GCSE Energy and Efficiency

(0)
Learning Objectives: • Describe an efficient transfer as one that transfers more energy by a useful process. • Calculate the efficiency of a range of energy transfers. • Rearrange the efficiency equation to find input or total output energy.
Acceleration
Malachite44Malachite44

Acceleration

(0)
Describe the difference between speed and velocity. Calculate the acceleration of an object using the change in velocity and time. Rearrange the acceleration equation to calculate change in velocity or time.
GCSE Centre of Mass
Malachite44Malachite44

GCSE Centre of Mass

(0)
• Define what the centre of mass is and identify where it would be in a range of simple shapes. • State that a suspended object will come to rest so that the centre of mass lies below the point of suspension. • Describe an experimental technique to determine the centre of mass of an object with an irregular shape. • Compare the stability of objects to the position of their centre of mass.
Investigating Refraction
Malachite44Malachite44

Investigating Refraction

(0)
PowerPoint that covers the following learning objective: Investigate how refraction happens using a glass block. This is made for a KS3 level science class. Includes questions, answers, diagrams, a practical opportunity and videos/simulations if you don’t have the practical equipment.
